Endothelial cell Piezo1 promotes vascular smooth muscle cell differentiation on large arteries by Javier Abello, Ying Yin, Yonghui Zhao, Josh Maurer, Jihui Lee, Cherokee Bodell, Jahmiera Richee, Abigail J. Clevenger, Zarek Burton, Megan E. Goeckel, Michelle Lin, Stephanie Grainger, Carmen M. Halabi, Shreya A. Raghavan, Rajan Sah, Amber N. Stratman

“…To determine the underlying mechanism, we used in vitro modeling assays to demonstrate that differential sensing of pulsatile versus laminar flow forces across endothelial cells changes the expression of mural cell differentiation genes. Together, our findings suggest a crucial role for EC Piezo1 in sensing force within large arteries to mediate mural cell differentiation and stabilization of the arterial vasculature.…”
