Description
A Piezo1 channel agonist (EC50s = 17.1 and 26.6 μM for murine and human Piezo1-transfected HEK293T cells, respectively); selective for Piezo1 as it elicits Ca2+ flux in Piezo1- but not Piezo2-transfected HEK293T cells; slows the inactivation phase of murine Piezo1 transient currents and sensitizes them to activation by mechanical pressure; induces dehydration and a change in shape of wild-type red blood cells but not Piezo1 knockout cells
