In this study, researchers observed a high degree of plasticity in somatosensory axons innervating Merkel cells in adult mouse skin, revealing that both epithelial-neural crosstalk and intrinsic neural mechanisms contribute to axonal patterning and remodeling during epithelial homeostasis.
This study observed that Merkel cells and their associated somatosensory axons in mouse skin exhibit significant plasticity, remodeling dynamically to maintain homeostasis. Axonal branching patterns were notably influenced by Merkel cells, suggesting epithelial-neural interactions play a key role in axonal plasticity and patterning.
In this study, highly dynamic remodeling was observed in mouse somatosensory axons and Merkel cells, indicating that epithelial-neural interactions help maintain homeostatic remodeling, with additional intrinsic neural mechanisms contributing to axonal plasticity.
