Piezo1 activation induces relaxation of the pudendal artery and corpus cavernosum
Piezo1 channel is a sensor for shear-stress in the vasculature. Piezo1 activation induces vasodilation, and its deficiency contributes to vascular disorders, such as hypertension. In this study, we aimed to determine whether Piezo1 channel has a functional role in the dilation of pudendal arteries a...
