Dear friends and colleagues,
I wanted to share this Nobel Prize research as it is very supportive of our work. This was just awarded on Oct 4th, 2021. Be sure to read the full press release information and the advanced information (links below) as it goes into the detail of explaining the molecular basis for sensing heat, cold and mechanical force, which is fundamental for our ability to feel, interpret and interact with our internal and external environment.

Summary: They discovered a class of sensors via pressure- sensitive cells that respond to mechanical stimuli in the skin and internal organs.

Enjoy,

Ardem Patapoutian, awarded the 2021 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, used pressure-sensitive cells to discover a novel class of sensors that respond to mechanical stimuli in the skin and internal organs.

Patapoutian and his collaborators first identified a cell line that gave off a measurable electric signal when individual cells were poked with a micropipette. It was assumed that the receptor activated by mechanical force is an ion channel and in a next step 72 candidate genes encoding possible receptors were identified. These genes were inactivated one by one to discover the gene responsible for mechanosensitivity in the studied cells. After an arduous search, Patapoutian and his co-workers succeeded in identifying a single gene whose silencing rendered the cells insensitive to poking with the micropipette. A new and entirely unknown mechanosensitive ion channel had been discovered and was given the name Piezo1, after the Greek word for pressure. Through its similarity to Piezo1, a second gene was discovered and named Piezo2. Sensory neurons were found to express high levels of Piezo2 and further studies firmly established that Piezo1 and Piezo2 are ion channels that are directly activated by the exertion of pressure on cell membranes.

The breakthrough by Patapoutian led to a series of papers from his and other groups, demonstrating that the Piezo2 ion channel is essential for the sense of touch. Moreover, Piezo2 was shown to play a key role in the critically important sensing of body position and motion, known as proprioception. In further work, Piezo1 and Piezo2 channels have been shown to regulate additional important physiological processes including blood pressure, respiration and urinary bladder control.
The 2021 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded jointly to David Julius and Ardem Patapoutian “for their discoveries of receptors for temperature and touch"

Newly detailed nerve links between brain and other organs shape thoughts, memories, and feelings Studies of interoception challenge distinctions between disorders of the brain and body—and may hold clues to the basis of consciousness

Every time you have a thought, there is a biochemical reaction in the brain-you make a chemical. The brain then releases specific chemical signals to the body, and when the body gets these chemical messages from the brain, it complies instantly by initiating a matching set of reactions directly in alignment with what the brain is thinking. To understand this process-how you typically think equal to your body, and how to form a new mind-you first need to appreciate the role that your brain and its chemistry plays in your life.

Neurotransmitters, neuropeptides, and hormones are the cause-and-effect chemicals for brain activity and bodily functioning. These three different types of chemicals, called ligands (the word ligare means "to bind" in Latin) connect to, interact with, or influence the cell in a matter of milliseconds.

Think of neurotransmitters as chemical messengers primarily from the brain and mind, neuropeptides as chemical signalers that serve as a bridge between the brain and the body to make us feel the way we think, and hormones as the chemicals related to feelings primarily in the body.

For example, if you start to think about confronting your teenager over the new dent in the car, your neurotransmitters would start the thought process in your brain to produce a specific level of mind, your neuropeptides would chemically signal your body in a specific way, and you would begin to feel a bit riled up. As the peptides find their way to your adrenal glands, they would then be prompted to release the hormones adrenaline and cortisol- and now you are definitely feeling fired up. Chemically, your body is ready for battle.
