Mapping the distribution of Meissner corpuscles throughout the human hand: Sex‐ and age‐dependent variations

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Meissner corpuscles are rapidly adapting mechanoreceptors involved in tactile discrimination in human glabrous hand skin. Detailed information on their regional distribution and variation across age, sex, and hand side remains limited. This study mapped Meissner corpuscles in 17 phalangeal and palmar regions from 46 individuals (27 male and 19

All‐Inside Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Using Semitendinosus Autograft Augmented With Biocomposite Scaffold: A Technical Note

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using the all‐inside technique offers bone preservation and minimal invasiveness. However, single hamstring tendon autografts with a diameter below 8 mm carry increased failure risk. BioBrace (ConMed), a biocomposite scaffold of bioresorbable poly(L‐lactide) microfilaments and type I collagen, provides

The β integrin modulates serotonin sensitivity via NPxY motifs to regulate egg laying and mechanosensation behaviors in Caenorhabditis elegans

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Integrin is an αβ heterodimeric receptor to the extracellular matrix; its binding to the matrix recruits focal adhesions to two NPxY motifs, the tyrosine phosphorylation sites in the cytoplasmic domain. Studies found that replacing tyrosines (Y) with phenylalanines (F) in the motif of β1 integrin displayed little developmental or ...

Modulation of masseteric reflexes by simulated mastication

, 2010
It is well-known that limb muscle reflexes are modulated during human movements. However, little is known about the existence of equivalent masticatory muscle reflex modulation.

Proteomic profiling of Elp1‐deficient trigeminal ganglia reveals disruption of neurotrophic and metabolic pathways in a familial dysautonomia mouse model

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Elp1, a subunit of the Elongator complex, is essential for tRNA modification and neuronal development. Mutations in ELP1 underlie familial dysautonomia (FD), a disorder marked by sensory and autonomic neuropathy. While loss of Elp1 disrupts trigeminal ganglion formation and survival, the downstream molecular consequences remain ...

Central representation and opioid modulation of gastric mechanoreceptor activity in the rat

, 1983
The effects of gastric distension on single-unit activity recorded from the dorsal vagal nucleus in the rat medulla have been studied using microelectrodes in anesthetized animals.

Wide‐range and high‐resolution Young's modulus sensing enabled by a complementary indentation‐protrusion architecture

FlexMat, EarlyView.
A tactile sensor integrating indentation and protrusion sensing within a single platform enables accurate perception of object Young's modulus. This complementary architecture expands the detectable Young's modulus range to 25.8–2639.2 kPa and achieves an object recognition accuracy of 94.27%, outperforming indentation‐only (84.59%) and protrusion‐only

Voltage-Activated Potassium Outward Currents in Two Types of Spider Mechanoreceptor Neurons

, 1999
Voltage-activated potassium outward currents in two types of spider mechanoreceptor neurons. We studied the properties of voltage-activated outward currents in two types of spider cuticular mechanoreceptor neurons to learn if these currents contribute ...
