Abstract
The reflex that provides rapid neural control of blood pressure is triggered by an unknown molecular pressure sensor. ASIC2, an ion channel in a family that includes a mechanosensor from C. elegans, is shown by Lu et al. in this issue of Neuron to be critical for this reflex in mice, perhaps because ASIC2 is the elusive pressure sensor.
