The recombinant human PIEZO1 protein is labeled with an N-terminal 10xHis-tagged and C-terminal Myc-tag. It is expressed in the E.coli. The expression region corresponds to the 2198-2431aa of the human PIEZO1. It is subject to affinity chromatography purification. Its purity is over 90% as measured by SDS-PAGE.
Human PIEZO1 functions as a mechanosensitive ion channel and is primarily involved in transducing mechanical stimuli into cellular responses. Upon stimulation by mechanical forces, such as membrane stretch or deformation, PIEZO1 occurs a conformational change, allowing ion influx [1-3]. This mechanotransduction process is vital to regulating calcium signaling, which is crucial for muscle contraction, neurotransmitter release, and cellular signaling pathways [4]. It is a non-selective cation channel that allows the passage of various ions, including Na+, K+, and Ca2+, thereby playing a significant role in various physiological processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis [5][6].
Research has demonstrated that PIEZO1 is involved in several pathophysiological conditions. The dysregulation of PIEZO1 has been linked to diseases such as multiple sclerosis, where its expression is downregulated in the brain, affecting oligodendrocyte maturation and migration [7]. PIEZO1 has been implicated in cancer biology, influencing tumor progression and immune responses by modulating calcium signaling in immune cells [4].
