research Receptor Types in Cat Hairy Skin Supplied by Myelinated Fibers
Cats' hairy skin has different touch receptors connected by myelinated fibers.
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 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.
