Hybrid hydrogel–extracellular matrix scaffolds identify biochemical and mechanical signatures of cardiac ageing - Nature Materials
A hybrid extracellular matrix–hydrogel with tunable mechanical stiffness and biochemical composition of young or aged cardiac tissue is used to identify the specific contributions of extracellular mat...

It’s been a long time coming but…
so happy my Ph.D. work (part of) is now published on nature materials 🥳
I remember it all too well about this project, the serendipity and the exciting findings…🧵 @jennyoung.bsky.social @mbisg.bsky.social @BME_NUS @NUS

Proud of this collab! At first, we wondered—why would PIEZO2-positive neurons innervate soft tissue like fat? Turns out, mechanosensation plays a role in unexpected places. Studying PIEZOs keeps revealing surprises in biology and disease! 1/2
PIEZO2 ion channels come to the fore yet again, now as a key sensor for adipose tissue www.cell.com/cell-metabol... @ardemp.bskyverified.social @scripps.edu
A key role of PIEZO2 mechanosensitive ion channel in adipose sensory innervation
Wang et al. identified that the mechanoreceptor PIEZO2 is abundantly expressed in
fat-innervating sensory neurons and plays a crucial role in mediating the adipose
afferent pathway.
