Piezo2 transmembrane excitatory mechanosensitive ion channels were identified as the principal mechanotransduction for proprioception. Recently, it was postulated that could be acutely microdamaged on an autologous basis at proprioceptive Type Ia terminals in a cognitive demand-induced acute stress response time window when unaccustomed or strenuous eccentric contractions are executed. One consequence of this proposed transient microinjury VGLUT1/Ia synaptic disconnection motoneurons, we can learn from platinum-analogue chemotherapy. A secondary, harsher injury phase with involvement polymodal Aδ and nociceptive C-fibers follow primary impairment proprioception delayed onset muscle soreness. Repetitive reinjury these form repeated bout effects is to tertiary phase. Notably, use associated motor learning memory. The monosynaptic static firing sensory encoding affected stretch reflex immediate microdamage leading impaired proprioception, exaggerated reduced range motion. These channelopathies afferent constitute critical gateway pathophysiology Correspondingly, fatiguing contraction-based pathological hyperexcitation afferents induces reactive oxygen species production-associated neuroinflammation neuronal activation spinal cord

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a lethal neurodegenerative multisystem disease, with an unknown pathomechanism, resulting in progressive motoneuron loss. In 90-95% of cases, ALS sporadic, but close to 10% familial inherited gene mutations from family members. Recently, non-contact dying-back injury mechanism theory postulated that irreversible intrafusal proprioceptive terminal degeneration induces the non-resolving impairment circuitry, leading loss, overloading and depletion central nervous system, eventually death. The current manuscript proposes Piezo2 channelopathy this constantly activated dysregulated transcription process ALS, providing access underlying pathogenic variants letting cell-type-specific noncoding DNA become more apparent. This opinion piece genes are associated both downstream upstream, their mutations, along aging process, could explain ALS. Moreover, microinjury ion channel be primary damage or root cause death Finally, also depicts pathomechanism as why considered painless disease.

Piezo1, a mechanosensitive ion channel, has emerged as key player in translating mechanical stimuli into biological signaling. Its involvement extends beyond physiological and pathological processes such lymphatic vessel development, axon growth, vascular immunoregulation, blood pressure regulation. The musculoskeletal system, responsible for structural support, movement, homeostasis, recently attracted attention regarding the significance of Piezo1. This review aims to provide comprehensive summary current research on Piezo1 highlighting its impact bone formation, myogenesis, chondrogenesis, intervertebral disc tendon matrix cross-linking, physical activity. Additionally, we explore potential targeting therapeutic approach disorders, including osteoporosis, muscle atrophy, degeneration, osteoarthritis.

It suggested to represent continuum neuropathic corneal pain the paradox that DED pain-free in most cases, although it regarded as condition.
