This study found that SK2 channels in sensory terminals of rat muscle spindles and hair follicles may play a crucial role in modulating mechanosensory transduction by influencing receptor potentials through Ca2+-activated K+ currents.

This study found that overexpression of neurotrophin 4 in mouse skin increased hair follicle and Meissner corpuscle innervation without altering sensory neuron numbers, differing from brain-derived neurotrophic factor by not affecting Merkel cell numbers.

This study found that calcitonin‐gene‐related peptide immunoreactive sensory axons in rats are predominantly involved in tissue maintenance rather than nociceptive functions.

This study examined the sensory innervation of hair follicles in the furry skin of rat hindlimbs, finding significant differences among hair types in their innervation patterns and densities.

This study in adult mice found that somatosensory axons innervating Merkel cells in the skin are highly plastic, with significant remodeling in response to epithelial turnover, and that Merkel cells play a role in limiting axonal branching and promoting their maturation.
