30 / 1000+ resultsresearch The Functional Organization of Cutaneous Low-Threshold Mechanosensory Neurons
Different hair follicles in the skin are innervated by unique combinations of mechanosensory neurons, crucial for touch sensation.
research Neurotrophin-4 modulates the mechanotransducer Cav3.2 T-type calcium current in mice down-hair neurons
Neurotrophin-4 increases calcium current in specific mouse neurons through the PI3K pathway.
research Follicle-innervating Aδ-low threshold mechanoreceptors organize through a population-dependent mechanism
Mouse touch-sensitive nerve cells adjust their connections based on competition with other similar cells.
research The structure and organization of lanceolate mechanosensory complexes at mouse hair follicles
Lanceolate complexes in mouse hair follicles are essential for touch and depend on specific cells for maintenance and regeneration.
research Robust coupling between the C‐tactile afferent and the hair follicle in humans
C-tactile nerves are sensitive to hair movement.
research Anatomy and Function of the Skin
The skin is the largest organ, protecting the body, regulating temperature, and producing hormones.
research The Role of Interface Geometry and Appendages on the Mesoscale Mechanics of the Skin
Skin's uneven surface and hair follicles affect its stress and strain but don't change its overall strength, and help prevent the skin from peeling apart.
research Synaptic‐like vesicles and candidate transduction channels in mechanosensory terminals
SLVs help maintain muscle stretch sensitivity and could aid in treating hypertension and muscle spasticity.
research A Study of the Expression of Small Conductance Calcium-Activated Potassium Channels (SK1-3) in Sensory Endings of Muscle Spindles and Lanceolate Endings of Hair Follicles in the Rat
SK2 channels help control sensory signals in rat muscle spindles and hair follicles.
research TARSAL CONTACT CHEMOSENSORY HAIRS OF THE LARGE WHITE BUTTERFLY PIERIS BRASSICAE AND THEIR POSSIBLE RÔLE IN OVIPOSITION BEHAVIOUR
B-type hairs on female butterfly legs help them choose where to lay eggs.
research Three-dimensional reconstructions of mechanosensory end organs suggest a unifying mechanism underlying dynamic, light touch
Dynamic, light touch is sensed through a common mechanism involving Piezo2 channels in sensory axons.
research Author response: Hair follicle epidermal stem cells define a niche for tactile sensation
Skin stem cells in hair follicles are important for touch sensation.
research Large Scale Gene Expression Profiles of Regenerating Inner Ear Sensory Epithelia
Birds can regenerate inner ear cells using specific gene pathways, unlike mammals.
research Effect of hair restoration surgery on the scalp sensitivity
Hair transplant surgery reduces scalp sensitivity by almost 40%, and smokers have less scalp sensitivity than non-smokers. The time since surgery doesn't significantly affect this.
research A pure, monolayer culture of Merkel cells from sinus hair follicles of the rat
Adding fetal calf serum helps Merkel cells survive and change shape.
research Hair growth inhibition by psychoemotional stress: a mouse model for neural mechanisms in hair growth control
Stress can stop hair growth in mice, and treatments can reverse this effect.
research Modulatory role of vitamins A, B3, C, D, and E on skin health, immunity, microbiome, and diseases
Vitamins A, B3, C, D, and E can improve skin health and immunity.
research Glutamic acid promotes hair growth in mice
Glutamic acid helps increase hair growth in mice.
research Embryology, Histology, and Physiology of the Hair Follicle
The document explains how hair follicles develop, their structure, and how they grow.
research A role for p75 neurotrophin receptor in the control of apoptosis‐driven hair follicle regression
The p75 neurotrophin receptor is important for hair follicle regression by controlling cell death.
research Multifunctional Merkel cells: Their roles in electromagnetic reception, finger-print formation, Reiki, epigenetic inheritance and hair form
Merkel cells may have roles in sensing magnetic fields, creating fingerprints, Reiki energy healing, passing on environmental information to offspring, and influencing hair shape.
research Study on the mechanism of cadmium chloride pollution accelerating skin tissue metabolism disorder, aging and inhibiting hair regeneration
Cadmium chloride pollution can cause skin disorders, speed up aging, and prevent hair growth.
research Scaffolds for epithelial and hair follicle regeneration
Electrospun matrices help regenerate skin and hair follicles using PCL and collagen scaffolds.
research Elastoinertial effects govern dynamic response of soft hair beds
Hair beds in fluid show nonlinear response due to viscosity, inertia, and elasticity.
research Three-row stereocilia model predicts mammalian hair bundle behavior
The model explains how mammal ear hair cells respond to sound and adapt.

Neurotrophins regulate nerve growth by balancing promotion and suppression.
research Skin-type-dependent development of murine mechanosensory neurons
Mechanosensory neurons adapt to different skin types after birth.
research Multi‐tasking epidermal stem cells: Beyond epidermal maintenance
Epidermal stem cells have various roles in skin beyond just maintenance, including forming specialized structures and aiding in skin repair and regeneration.
