Pain associated with bone marrow edema, osteoarthritis, bone cancer and fracture puts a significant burden on individuals, society, and the health care system in Australia. A dominant feature of these includes mechanical disturbances of the bone, and this is a trigger for the pain. In this study, we will determine if a newly discovered mechanically gated ion channel (Piezo2) is a key contributor to mechanically induced bone pain and could be a target for development of drugs to treat it.

与骨髓水肿、骨关节炎、骨癌和骨折相关的疼痛给澳大利亚的个人、社会和医疗保健系统带来了沉重的负担。其中的一个主要特征包括骨骼的机械干扰，这是疼痛的触发因素。在这项研究中，我们将确定新发现的机械门控离子通道（Piezo2）是否是机械诱导骨痛的关键因素，并可能成为开发治疗药物的目标。
