Family PIEZO family
Function
Pore-forming subunit of a mechanosensitive non-specific cation channel. Generates currents characterized by a linear current-voltage relationship that are sensitive to ruthenium red and gadolinium. Plays a key role in epithelial cell adhesion by maintaining integrin activation through R- Ras recruitment to the ER, most probably in its activated state, and subsequent stimulation of calpain signaling. In the kidney, may contribute to the detection of intraluminal pressure changes and to urine flow sensing. Acts as shear-stress sensor that promotes endothelial cell organization and alignment in the direction of blood flow through calpain activation. Plays a key role in blood vessel formation and vascular structure in both development and adult physiology. Acts as sensor of phosphatidylserine (PS) flipping at the plasma membrane and governs morphogenesis of muscle cells. In myoblasts, flippase-mediated PS enrichment at the inner leaflet of plasma membrane triggers channel activation and Ca2+ influx followed by Rho GTPases signal transduction, leading to assembly of cortical actomyosin fibers and myotube formation.

Responsed Disease Degenerative arthritis ICD-11: FA05
Pathway Response Fatty acid metabolism hsa01212
Ferroptosis hsa04216
Cell Process Cell ferroptosis
In Vitro Model
hCDs (Chondrocytes)
In Vivo Model
Mice were orally administered 0.1 g/kg Co-Q10 daily for 8 weeks after the DMM model was established to investigate the therapeutic effect of Co-Q10 in GPX4-CKO mice with osteoarthritis. Mice and rats were anaesthetized with pentobarbital. Destabilization of the medial meniscus (DMM) surgery was performed under a microscope. The incision was sutured and disinfected daily until it healed.
