Piezo2 expressing nociceptors mediate mechanical sensitization in experimental osteoarthritis

Abstract Non-opioid targets are needed for addressing osteoarthritis pain, which is mechanical in nature and associated with daily activities such as walking and climbing stairs. Piezo2 has been implicated in the development of mechanical pain, but the mechanisms by which this occurs remain poorly u...
