August 2016 in “Journal of Visualized Experiments” This article describes a method using the CUBIC protocol to clarify and visualize molecular and cellular interactions in mouse skin biopsies at single cell resolution, but does not provide new biological findings.
This study found that somatosensory axons innervating Merkel cells in adult mouse skin exhibit significant plasticity, influenced by epithelial and neural factors, indicating a complex interaction in maintaining homeostasis.
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.
