A new imaging method helps see and study touch nerve endings in mouse skin.
research A subpopulation of itch‐sensing neurons marked by Ret and somatostatin expression
Scientists found a specific group of itch-sensing nerve cells in mice important for feeling itch but not for sensing heat or touch.
research Tactile sensitivity in the rat: a correlation between receptor structure and function
Rats have different touch receptors in their paws that help with movement and handling objects.
research Touch Receptors Undergo Rapid Remodeling in Healthy Skin
Touch sensitivity in mouse skin decreases during hair growth due to changes in touch receptors.
research Three-dimensional analysis of intraepidermal nerve fibres and Langerhans cells in keloids with a focus on pruritus
Itchy keloids on the chest are linked to more nerve fibers and substance P.

TRPV4 channels in the skin may enhance the effects of acupuncture.
research Painful piezogenic pitting of the fingers in older adults: A case series
Older adults may experience painful finger pitting due to nerve changes in aging skin, and treatments can help reduce symptoms.
research Effects of Potassium Channel Modulators on the Responses of Mammalian Slowly Adapting Mechanoreceptors
Potassium channel modulators mostly increase the activity of rat whisker mechanoreceptors.
research Sensory and physiological dimensions of cold pressor pain in trichotillomania
Adults with trichotillomania do not have different pain sensitivity to cold pressor pain compared to healthy individuals.
research Pain relief and dermatological changes in complex regional pain syndrome with peripheral nerve stimulation
Peripheral nerve stimulation greatly reduced pain and improved skin symptoms in a CRPS patient.
research Molecular studies of transient receptor potential Vanilloid 3 (TRPV3)
TRPV3 channels are involved in skin processes and are affected by shear stress, influencing itch and mechanotransduction.
research Designing a Placebo Microneedle Stamp: Modeling and Validation in a Clinical Control Trial
The placebo microneedle stamp didn't penetrate skin and caused less pain, but blinding was only effective for those with low skin sensitivity.
research Tactile and hair-hair friction behavior of hair fibers
Hair feels different when touched and rubs together in various ways.
research Investigation of the Development of Hypersensitivity and Hyperalgesia After Repeated Application of Platelet-Rich Plasma in Rats: An Experimental Study
