This study shows that deleting PIEZO1 in adult cardiomyocytes leads to accelerated cardiac aging and premature death in mice.

This study generates human proprioceptor and low-threshold mechanoreceptor neurons from pluripotent stem cells and characterizes their molecular and functional properties.

This paper develops a droplet-based platform for creating multicompartment artificial cells with remotely controllable protein channels using microfluidics and acoustic levitation.

This study shows that Gq receptors and calcineurin are needed for neurohumoral LVH but not for mechanical TAC-induced LVH, which uses CaMKII-HDAC4-MEF2 pathway.

This study uses droplet-hydrogel bilayers to simultaneously record electrical activity and visualize fluorescently labeled Piezo1 channels, demonstrating their insertion and activation.
