Endothelial Piezo1 channels as sensors of exercise
Piezo1 channels are newly discovered ion channels which have come to the fore as players in endothelial biology. They have a key role as sensors of shear stress, a frictional force which arises in vascular biology because of blood flow. Endothelial Piezo1 channels are critical in murine embryonic development, just after the heart starts to beat and drive blood into the nascent endothelial netwo...
متن کاملIt Depends
Context plays a crucial role for semantic similarity measurements. Depending on aspects such as location, time, task and user preferences, the respects that play a role for the comparison of concepts may vary. This variance should be reflected in a change of the similarity measurements’ results. Although this dependency has been observed in various human subject tests and is accounted for in re...
متن کاملPiezo1
Piezo ion channels have been found to be essential for mechanical responses in cells. These channels were first shown to exist in Neuro2A cells, and the gene was identified by siRNAs that diminished the mechanical response. Piezo channels are approximately 2500 amino acids long, have between 24-32 transmembrane regions, and appear to assemble into tetramers and require no other proteins for act...
متن کاملAnaphylactic shock depends on endothelial Gq/G11
Anaphylactic shock is a severe allergic reaction involving multiple organs including the bronchial and cardiovascular system. Most anaphylactic mediators, like platelet-activating factor (PAF), histamine, and others, act through G protein-coupled receptors, which are linked to the heterotrimeric G proteins G(q)/G(11), G(12)/G(13), and G(i). The role of downstream signaling pathways activated by...
