Mechanically activated ion channel PIEZO1 is required for lymphatic valve formation
PIEZO1 is a cation channel that is activated by mechanical forces such as fluid shear stress or membrane stretch. PIEZO1 loss-of-function mutations in patients are associated with congenital lymphedema with pleural effusion. However, the mechanistic link between PIEZO1 function and the development o...
