The current article reviews the structure and gating mechanisms of Piezo1, its roles in the physiology/pathophysiology of neurons, astrocytes, microglia, and bone-marrow-derived macrophages, and especially its roles in erythrocytic turnover and iron metabolism, revealing a potential interplay between the biomechanics and biochemistry of hematoma in ICH. Here, PIEZO1 is linked to hematoma.
