| Summary: | Cellular mechanotransduction refers to the process through which cells perceive mechanical stimuli and subsequently translate them into biochemical signals. Key mechanosensitive ion channels encompass PIEZO, TREK-1, and TRESK. These mechanosensitive ion channels are crucial in regulating specific pathophysiological conditions, including fibrosis, tumor progression, and cellular proliferation and differentiation. Recent research indicates that PIEZO, TREK-1, and TRESK are significant contributors to various types of cancer pain by sensing mechanical stimuli, which subsequently activate internal signaling pathways. Here concentrates on advancements in research concerning PIEZO, TREK-1, and TRESK in cancer pain research, aiming to lay the groundwork for creating new therapeutic drugs that address mechanosensitive ion channels for treating cancer pain. |
