This paper shows that Piezo1 and Piezo2 channels are expressed in retinal ganglion cells and that their activation increases light-dependent neural activity and excitability, potentially linking to glaucoma progression.

The paper identifies oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) as the cells that stop sensory axons from regenerating into the spinal cord by forming synapses with them.
