"For example, phospholipase D2 (PLD2) rapidly (<1 ms) translocates in response to membrane stress, subsequently generating phosphatidic acid (PA) that could directly activate TREK1, though it has yet to be explored what, if any, effects Piezo1 may have on PLD2 activity xref – xref ."

"77 An example of a direct activator includes intracellular lysophosphatidic acid, which has been previously shown to directly activate TREK1, TREK2 and TRAAK channels.76 Phosphatidic acid (PA) has also been shown to activate a chimeric K channel (voltage sensor domain of K 2.1 fused with a K 1.2 pore domain).78 On the other hand, indirect activation mediated through PLD2 produces multiple products such as phosphatidic acid (PA), phosphatidylglycerol (PG) and phosphatidylethanol (PEtOH)."

"The activatory effect is proposed to result from PIP 2 being hydrolyzed to PA by phospholipase D2 bound to the C-terminus of TREK channels, with the increase in local concentration of PA directly activating TREK-1 ( xref ); by contrast, the inhibitory effect is proposed to result from PIP 2 competing PA out of its activatory site, implying that PA may be the main channel activator, not PIP 2 ( xref )."
