Lots of interesting things to follow; do other molecules bind as part of a mechanosensory complex and does PIEZO1 regulate transcription through MDFI/MDFIC? But for now, a huge thanks to all the contributors and supporters, especially Boris Martinac !

We used FluidFM and lifetime fluorescence microscopy (Flipper-TR) to investigate the coupling of force application and tension propagation. Thanks @CapitanioLab for helping with the Optical Tweezers, Boris Martinac for endless discussions, and everyone else for their contribution

A pervasive view is that TRP channels represent primary sensors of mechanical forces. Along with @PooleLab1 and Boris Martinac we reviewed the evidence supporting this in Trends in Biochemical Sciences cell.com/trends/biochem…

First pre-print of 2025! Collaborative effort with the Martinac and Feneley labs looking at the long term impact of Piezo1 deletion on cardiac function. Some very cool data, particularly a link between atrial stretch-Piezo1 channels and ANP release!! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
