Gene variant gives mice super-powered tendons for jumping and running

by The Scripps Research Institute Tendon-specific R2482H Piezo1 enhances jumping power and maximum running speed in mice. (A) Representative images of jumping in WT, Piezo1systemic-mut/+, Piezo1tendon-mut/+, and Piezo1muscle-mut/+mice. (B) Maximum jumping distance of each mouse. Male and female. n = 10 of each. Error bars represent SDs; *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P <...
