90-120 / 1000+ results research A highly sensitive MEMS silicon‐hair device reproducing the function of hair follicle
The device mimics human hair follicles and detects tiny forces and moments with high sensitivity.
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 Defining the Cellular Environment in the Organ of Corti following Extensive Hair Cell Loss: A Basis for Future Sensory Cell Replacement in the Cochlea
The conclusion is that genetic differences affect how the cochlea heals after hair cell loss, which may challenge the creation of hearing loss treatments.
research TRPV1 Function in Health and Disease
TRPV1 is involved in pain, various body functions, and diseases, but targeting it for treatment is challenging.
research Tactile and hair-hair friction behavior of hair fibers
Hair feels different when touched and rubs together in various ways.
research Adaptive Balance in Posterior Cerebellum
The posterior cerebellum helps maintain balance by adapting to sensory inputs and self-motion.
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 Integumentary System
The skin protects the body, helps with immunity, senses, temperature control, and makes vitamin D.
research Peripheral patterns of calcitonin‐gene‐related peptide general somatic sensory innervation: Cutaneous and deep terminations
CGRP-IR axons may help maintain and renew tissues.
research Spatiotemporal dynamics of sensory neuron and Merkel-cell remodeling are decoupled during epidermal homeostasis
Merkel cells stabilize nerve endings in the skin, and they change independently of each other.
research Jelátviteli mechanizmusok szerepe a bőr biológiai folyamatainak szabályozásában
Signaling mechanisms, including TRPV channels and cannabinoid receptors, are important in skin and hair biology.
research The existence of a linear system consisting of sympathetic endings in rat skin
Rat skin has a linear system of nerve fibers linked to hair follicles and muscles.
research Lysophosphatidic acid and signaling in sensory neurons
Lysophosphatidic acid affects sensory neurons and may cause neuropathic pain and itch.
research Parallels in signaling between development and regeneration in ectodermal organs
research Psychosomatic Concepts in Dermatology
Mental and social factors greatly affect skin conditions and doctors find it hard to deal with these aspects.
research Tenascin-C expressing touch dome keratinocytes exhibit characteristics of all epidermal lineages
Touch dome keratinocytes in adult skin have traits of different skin cell types.
research Relationships between hair-follicle afferent terminations and glutamic acid decar☐ylase-containing boutons in the cat's spinal cord
research Distribution of P2X3‐immunoreactive fibers in hairy and glabrous skin of the rat
P2X3-IR fibers are widespread in rat skin and likely help detect pain.
research Neuro-Inspired Biomimetic Microreactor for Sensory Recovery and Hair Follicle Neogenesis under Skin Burns
The device helps restore sensation and grow new hair follicles after skin burns.
research Overexpression of neurotrophin 4 in skin enhances myelinated sensory endings but does not influence sensory neuron number
Increasing neurotrophin 4 in skin boosts nerve endings but not sensory neuron count.
research 869 The specification of Merkel cell in the back skin and glabrous paw skin is controlled by FGFR2-meditated signaling
FGFR2 signaling controls Merkel cell formation in different skin regions.
research Different Requirements for GFRα2-Signaling in Three Populations of Cutaneous Sensory Neurons
GFRα2 is essential for controlling neuron size but not for target innervation in certain sensory neurons.
research Spatial transcriptomics reveals asymmetric cellular responses to injury in the regenerating spiny mouse (Acomys) ear
The spiny mouse regenerates ear tissue asymmetrically, with gene expression differences possibly explaining its unique healing abilities.
research The development of cutaneous afferent pathways in fetal sheep: a structural and functional study
Fetal sheep develop skin nerve pathways and responses to touch and heat between 75 and 134 days of gestation.
research Spatiotemporal dynamics of sensory neuron and Merkel-cell remodeling are decoupled during epidermal homeostasis
Sensory neuron and Merkel cell changes in the skin happen independently during normal skin maintenance.
