Dogs have varying numbers of touch-sensitive Merkel cells in different skin areas, with most in the oral mucosa and facial skin, unrelated to age, sex, breed, or color.

Meis1 is crucial for skin health and tumor development.

Meis2 is essential for whisker development, independent of nerve involvement.

Touch sensitivity in mouse skin decreases during hair growth due to changes in touch receptors.

Merkel cells and Langerhans cells in hair follicles are closely connected and may interact.

P2X₃-IR fibers are widespread in rat skin and likely help detect pain.

TRPA1 and TRPV1 channels don't affect mechanotransduction in rat sinus hair follicles.

BK and Kv4.2 channels help Merkel cells in rat whiskers sense touch.

SLVs help maintain muscle stretch sensitivity and could aid in treating hypertension and muscle spasticity.

The TRPV3 channel structure changes linked to severe itch and hyperkeratosis were identified using cryo-EM.

Hair feels different when touched and rubs together in various ways.

Sensory neurons and Merkel cells remodel at different rates during normal skin maintenance.

SK2 channels help control sensory signals in rat muscle spindles and hair follicles.

Merkel cells develop independently of nerves and are linked to specific hair follicles in mice.

Mesenchymal MEIS2 is essential for whisker development without needing sensory nerves.

Adding fetal calf serum helps Merkel cells survive and change shape.

Hairy skin feels prickling more intensely than smooth skin.

The epidermis is the stiffest skin layer.

Meibomian glands are like hair follicles without a hair shaft.

The method effectively analyzes skin tissue changes, especially in the arrector pili muscle and nerve fibers with hair follicles.

Frontal fibrosing alopecia is linked to hypothyroidism but doesn't affect quality of life.

Most patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia are middle-aged women, often have thyroid disease, and some treatments can help stabilize the condition.

The erbium:YAG laser is a better, safer, and faster method for scalp surgery than the traditional method.

Naked mole-rats have unique skin and hair nerve structures, lacking certain pain and temperature-related neuropeptides.

Potassium channel modulators mostly increase the activity of rat whisker mechanoreceptors.

The model effectively studies how sensory nerves interact with skin components, aiding research on wound healing and hair growth.

MAEG helps in mouse hair follicle development by aiding cell adhesion.

B-type hairs on female butterfly legs help them choose where to lay eggs.

Certain skin cells near the base of hair muscles may help renew and stabilize skin, possibly affecting skin disorder understanding.
