Piezo proteins constitute a family of excitatory [[ion channels]] directly gated by mechanical forces. Piezo is functionally conserved and very important because all living organisms are subjected to mechanical forces from their environment for instance [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proprioception proprioception], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osmoregulation osmoregulation], vascular tone, blood flow regulation, muscle [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homeostasis homeostasis], flow sensing in kidney, bladder and lungs. <ref name="Ion Permeation"> DOI 10.1016/j.neuron.2016.01.046 </ref>, | Piezo proteins constitute a family of excitatory [[ion channels]] directly gated by mechanical forces.
