Abstract Background Apoptosis of chondrocyte is involved in osteoarthritis (OA) pathogenesis, and mechanical stress plays a key role in this process by activation of Piezo1. However, the negative regulation of signal conduction mediated by mechanical stress is still unclear. Here, we elucidate that...
