The homoheptameric PANX1 (Pannexin-1) channel (Ruan et al. 2020, Zhang et al. 2021, Kuzuya et al. 2022) transports ATP from the cytosol to the extracellular region in response to mechanical stimuli such as membrane stretching (Bao et al. 2004). PANX1 channels are activated by calcium and also by extracellular ATP acting through the purinergic receptor P2RY2. Therefore, PANX1 may participate, through ATP-induced ATP release, in propagation of the intercellular calcium waves that are observed in response to mechanical stimulation (Locovei et al. 2006). Mechanical stimulation of PIEZO1 channels by laminar shear stress causes influx of calcium that activates release of ATP at least partly through PANX1 and possibly PANX2 channels (Wang et al. 2016).
