The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.
And as you fill your lungs and these little sacs of air, the alveoli fill, the piezo two receptors because of the way they react to that filling send information by way of a bunch of neurons, a bunch of wires up to the brain and tell you how full your lungs are, so that's the kind of mechanistic detail.
Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.

there is a set of receptors which are called piezo receptors, P-I-E-Z-O piezo receptors, piezo means pressure. And these were discovered a few years ago by a couple of different laboratories, but one of the main ones, one of the main laboratories that discovered these piezo receptors is the laboratory of Ardem Patapoutian. [...] The piezo receptors line many tissues, and inform the brain about pressure in those tissues. But the lungs have a particular category of piezo receptors called piezo two receptors.
