Piezo1 and Piezo2 are essential components of distinct mechanically activated cation channels.

Science, 330, 55-60, 2010.

Patapoutian and colleagues characterized the PIEZO1, PIEZO2, and TRPM8 receptors that detect pressure, menthol, and temperature.  With Mathur, J.; Schmidt, M.; Earley, T. J.; Ranade, S.; Petrus, M. J.; Dubin, A. E.
