Great review on mechanosensivity of TRP channels. Conclusion: if any TRP channels are primary mechanotransducers, most robust evidence for NOMPC and TRPV4, they are activated under specific mechanical conditions and may require auxiliary components. cell.com/trends/biochem…


Martinac Lab reposted

A pervasive view is that TRP channels represent primary sensors of mechanical forces. Along with @PooleLab1 and @BorisMartinac we reviewed the evidence supporting this in @TrendsBiochem cell.com/trends/biochem…

We are almost full! Just a few months away from the Ion Channels GRS/GRC. If you’re considering attending, apply/register ASAP. It’s going to be fun!!!

We used FIB-SEM and single corpuscle electrophysiology to determine the 3D structure of Meissner (Grandry) corpuscle and reveal active role of lamellar cells in touch detection. A study by @Yury_A_Nikolaev and Luke Ziolkowski. science.org/doi/full/10.11…

So excited together with @yiechanglin to have been part of this amazing study in @ScienceMagazine led by the labs of @Charles_D_Cox and Yixiao Zhang, who worked out why Piezo channels have different personalities in different cell types. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Super happy to share new work from my lab at @VictorChangInst published today in @ScienceMagazine. Collaborative effort driven by amazing post doc Zijing Zhou with Yixiao Zhang's group and the labs of Richard Harvey, @DrNatashaHarvey and @CorryLab science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…


Post-doc position available in the Martinac Lab. Structure + function of mechanosensitive channels as part of an NIH project with Thomas Walz’s Lab at Rockefeller.

Abstracts and early bird registration will be closing soon for the 4th International Symposium on Mechanobiology (JULY 31st)! Make sure to book your spot at the conference dinner, a venue that over looks the Opera House is surely not to be missed!

New research published in @NatureCVR shows that the stretch-activated, calcium-permeable Piezo1 channel is the mechanosensor that transduces cardiomyocyte stretch into the biochemical signalling pathway leading to #cardiac hypertrophy in mice nature.com/articles/s4156…

Looking forward to seeing all our favorite mechanobiology enthusiasts in Sydney in November. Some exciting developments on the meeting coming soon!
