Abstract
Activation of Piezo1 excites retinal ganglion cells, paralleling the early neurodegenerative progression in glaucoma mouse models and retinal degeneration.Piezo1 and Piezo2 were expressed in axons and soma of retinal ganglion cells in mice, rats, and human iPSC-RGCs.Functional assays confirmed Piezo1 in soma and neurites of neurons. Sustained elevation of Piezo1 and Piezo2 occurred after a single transient stretch may enhance damage from repeated traumatic nerve injury.
