Piezo1 is a mechanosensitive ion channel that converts mechanical stimuli into electrochemical signals.

Piezo1 protein is a mechanosensitive ion channel that allows intracellular calcium influx in response to various mechanical signals such as static pressure, shear stress, and membrane stretch and further initiates downstream biological responses. It is critical in various physiological processes, including the development of vasculatures, regulation of red blood cell volume, and sensation of light touch. Piezo1 is also highly expressed in the bone, regulating the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells and mediating calcium ion influx in osteocytes and osteoblasts.

In a number of cancer types (such as breast, colon, and prostate cancer), studies have found that Piezo1 is often upregulated.
An increase in Piezo1 expression can promote enhanced cell migration and invasive behavior, both of which are critical for cancer spread.

1755- WBV,    Reduction of breast cancer extravasation via vibration activated osteocyte regulation
Dose∅, However, intense exercise is physically challenging for bedridden, disabled, or aged patients. As an exercise surrogate, low-magnitude (<1 g) high-frequency (>30 Hz) (LMHF) vibration has gained growing interest
TumMeta↑, These data indicated that LMHF vibration could inhibit cancer extravasation, suggesting that vibration may suppress bone metastasis in breast cancer patients.
eff∅, Nevertheless, recent clinical studies indicated that LMHF vibration had minimum or no beneficial effects for the elderly (>65 years old)
Piezo1↑, LMHF vibration (60 Hz, 0.3 g, 1 h, Figure 1) significantly up-regulated the expressions of Piezo1 (1.63-fold) and COX-2 (1.32-fold) and down-regulated the expression of RANKL (0.86-fold).
COX2↑,
RANKL↓, down-regulated the expression of RANKL (0.86-fold).
TumCG∅, Vibration (60 Hz, 0.3 g, 1 h/day for 3 days) did not significantly impact cell growth and viability
tumCV∅,
TumCI↓, Vibration reduced breast cancer invasion via direct and indirect osteocyte signaling. vibration decreased cancer invasion distance by 24%
