In this study, researchers observed that mechanosensory neurons initially develop similar morphologies across different skin regions but diverge post-natally, adapting to the type of skin they innervate, with bone morphogenetic protein signaling crucial for forming Meissner corpuscles in glabrous skin.

This study found that in mice, competition for hair follicles guides the organization of follicle-innervating LTMR neurons during early development, with different neuronal subtypes showing varying adaptive responses to increased neuron populations.

This study developed finite element models to examine skin's biomechanical properties, finding that structural heterogeneities like Rete ridges and hair follicles create distinct stress and strain patterns that may influence mechanosensation and skin integrity.

This review discusses the role of microRNAs in skin function and potential therapeutic applications, emphasizing their importance in wound healing and disease management, though it reports no new experimental findings.

This review discusses the role of stem cell heterogeneity and compartmentalization within the epidermis and highlights their significance as niches for neighboring cells, without reporting new experimental results.
