research Diversification and Specialization of Touch Receptors in Skin
Skin has specialized touch receptors that can tell different sensations apart.
research Polycomb-Mediated Repression and Sonic Hedgehog Signaling Regulate Merkel Cell Specification
Sonic hedgehog signaling is needed for the development of touch-receptor cells in the skin, and the loss of Polycomb repressive complex 2 can lead to more of these cells.
research Developing Stratified Epithelia: Lessons from the Epidermis and Thymus
The skin and thymus develop similarly to protect and support immunity.
research The Role of Interface Geometry and Appendages on the Mesoscale Mechanics of the Skin
Skin's uneven surface and hair follicles affect its stress and strain but don't change its overall strength, and help prevent the skin from peeling apart.
research Anatomical Mapping and Density of Merkel Cells in Skin and Mucosae of the Dog
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.
research 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 Touch Receptors Undergo Rapid Remodeling in Healthy Skin
Touch sensitivity in mouse skin decreases during hair growth due to changes in touch receptors.
research Montagna Symposium 2016: The Skin, Our Sensory Organ for Itch, Pain, Touch, and Pleasure
The symposium highlighted the skin's role in sensing itch, pain, touch, and pleasure, and discussed new research and techniques for understanding and treating these sensations.
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 The Cellular Basis of Mechanosensory Merkel-Cell Innervation During Development

Sensory neuron remodeling and Merkel-cell changes happen independently during skin maintenance.
research Multifunctional Merkel Cells: Their Roles in Electromagnetic Reception, Fingerprint Formation, Reiki, Epigenetic Inheritance, and Hair Form
Merkel cells may have roles in sensing magnetic fields, creating fingerprints, Reiki energy healing, passing on environmental information to offspring, and influencing hair shape.
research Emerging Roles of Transit-Amplifying Cells in Tissue Regeneration and Cancer
Transit-amplifying cells are crucial for tissue repair and can contribute to cancer when they malfunction.
research Cellular Heterogeneity and Plasticity of Skin Epithelial Cells in Wound Healing and Tumorigenesis
Skin cells show flexibility in healing wounds and forming tumors, with potential for treating hair disorders and chronic ulcers.
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 Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Sensory Neuron and Merkel-Cell Remodeling During Epidermal Homeostasis
Sensory neurons and Merkel cells remodel at different rates during normal skin maintenance.
research Skin Structure
Human skin has multiple layers and functions, with key roles in protection, temperature control, and appearance.
research Delta Opioid Receptors Presynaptically Regulate Cutaneous Mechanosensory Neuron Input to the Spinal Cord Dorsal Horn
Delta opioid receptors help regulate touch sensation by reducing neurotransmitter release in the spinal cord.
