Relationship Between Mechanoreceptors in the Posterior Cruciate Ligament and Patient Age or Osteoarthritis Severity

open access: yesOrthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2023
Background: Mechanoreceptors in the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) can produce proprioception, which is an important reason why patients choose cruciate-retaining total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

MAPK and β-Catenin signaling: implication and interplay in orthodontic tooth movement

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience-Landmark, 2022
Orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) requires the orthodontic forces (compressive and tensile strain) to subject to the periodontal ligament and mechanosensory cells in the periodontium and to achieve mechanotransduction by mechanoreceptors.

Neuronal Innervation of the Subgenual Organ Complex and the Tibial Campaniform Sensilla in the Stick Insect Midleg

open access: yesInsects, 2020
Mechanosensory organs in legs play are crucial receptors in the feedback control of walking and in the detection of substrate-borne vibrations. Stick insects serve as a model for the physiological role of chordotonal organs and campaniform sensilla. This

The characteristics of the mechanoreceptors of the hip with arthrosis

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2011
Mechanoreceptors have been extensively studied in different joints and distinct signals that convey proprioceptive information to the cortex. Several clinical reports have established a link between the number of mechanoreceptors and a deficient ...
