research 50285 Oxytocin receptor is present in keratinocytes near touch and pain sensory neurons
Oxytocin receptors are found in skin cells near touch and pain neurons.
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 KCNQ Potassium Channels Modulate Sensitivity of Skin Down-hair (D-hair) Mechanoreceptors
KCNQ potassium channels help control the sensitivity of touch receptors in the skin.
research Joint Public Review: Touch receptor end-organ innervation and function require sensory neuron expression of the transcription factor Meis2
Meis2 is essential for touch sensation and nerve function in mice.
research eLife assessment: Touch receptor end-organ innervation and function require sensory neuron expression of the transcription factor Meis2
Meis2 is essential for touch sensation and proper nerve connection to touch receptors in certain skin areas of mice.
research Author Response: Touch receptor end-organ innervation and function require sensory neuron expression of the transcription factor Meis2
The transcription factor Meis2 is essential for touch sensation and proper nerve development in touch receptors.
research Club-like receptors respond to light touch but not to whisking
Club-like receptors detect light touch but not whisking.
research Indications for Peripheral and Central Sensitization in Patients With Chronic Scalp Pain (Trichodynia)
Chronic scalp pain in trichodynia involves both body-wide and localized increased pain sensitivity.
research [Prophylaxis of recurring low-flow priapism : Experimental botulinum neurotoxin injection into the ischiocavernosus muscle].
Botulinum neurotoxin injections into the pelvic muscles successfully prevented priapism relapse for over six months.
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 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 Diversification and Specialization of Touch Receptors in Skin
Skin has specialized touch receptors that can tell different sensations apart.
research EX VIVO DRUG SENSITIVITY EVALUATION OF A RARE ZMYM2::FGFR1+ LEUKEMIA PATIENT
Pemigatinib may be effective for treating ZMYM2::FGFR1 fusion-positive leukemia.
research Ageing skin, part 1: normal ageing
As skin ages, it gets thinner, paler, and more wrinkled, and protection and care like sunblock and moisturizers are important.
research Concise Review: Tissue-Engineered Skin and Nerve Regeneration in Burn Treatment
New methods for skin and nerve regeneration can improve healing and feeling after burns.
research An observational retrospective evaluation of 79 young men with long-term adverse effects after use of finasteride against androgenetic alopecia
Finasteride caused long-term sexual and non-sexual side effects in young men with hair loss.
research Somatization in the dermatology patient: Some sociocultural perspectives
Skin symptoms without a medical cause often reflect psychological stress and are influenced by culture, requiring a team approach for treatment.
research Telogen defluxion associated with hypersensitivity causing alopecia in a horse
A horse's sudden hair loss was caused by an allergic reaction to a coat conditioning powder.
research Vulvovaginite por estrutura óssea no canal vaginal de cadela castrada: Relato de caso
A spayed dog with vaginal bone structures causing infection was successfully treated by removing the bones and administering medication.
research Effect of Exercise Interventions on Metabolic, Reproductive and Mental Health in Overweight Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is better than moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) for improving health in overweight women with PCOS.
research Before & beyond the pain – Allostatic load, central sensitivity and their role in health and function
Recognizing and managing central sensitization and stress is crucial for treating chronic pain.
research Comment on scalp neuropathy in androgenetic alopecia
Hair loss in men (androgenetic alopecia) is significantly linked to decreased scalp sensitivity, but not temperature sensitivity. More research is needed to confirm this. Comparing this hair loss to leprosy is unsupported and stigmatizing.
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 Development and evaluation of novel rodent model of PCOS mimicking clinical phenotype in human disease
The new rodent model successfully mimics non-lean human PCOS symptoms.
research TRPA1 Modulates Mechanotransduction in Cutaneous Sensory Neurons
TRPA1 is crucial for mechanical sensitivity in skin sensory neurons.
research Adaptations in the structure and innervation of follicle‐sinus complexes to an aquatic environment as seen in the Florida manatee (Trichechus manatus latirostris)
Manatee whiskers are specially adapted for touch in water.
research Acne keloidalis nuchae: prevalence, impact, and management challenges
Acne keloidalis nuchae is a tough-to-treat condition that greatly affects quality of life, especially in men of African descent.
research The Function and Structure of the Skin
The skin protects the body, regulates temperature, senses touch, and makes vitamin D.
research News in brief
Japanese researchers created new hair follicles from human cells that grew hair when put into mice, and other findings showed a link between eye disease severity and corneal thickness, gene mutations affecting hearing and touch, and the safety of the shingles vaccine for adults over 50.
