Coordinated regulation of PIEZO2 by alternative splicing, post‐translational modification, membrane trafficking and protein partners

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Regulatory mechanisms such as alternative splicing, post‐translational modification, membrane trafficking, and protein interactions control channel gating, membrane abundance, and overall activity of PIEZO2. Proper regulation supports PIEZO2‐dependent proprioceptive, somatosensory, nociceptive, pruriceptive and interoceptive ...

Hypoxia‐induced vulnerability of the somatosensory nervous system

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Sensory neurons are highly energy dependent and rely on sufficient oxygen availability to maintain metabolic stability and effective neurocommunication. Within the somatosensory system, even modest reductions in tissue oxygen tension impair neuronal respiration, forcing a shift toward less efficient metabolic pathways that ...

Low‐threshold cutaneous mechanoreceptors on the foot sole have enhanced sensitivity when skin temperature is elevated

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic illustration of microneurography recordings used to examine the effects of local skin heating on cutaneous mechanoreceptor responses in the human foot (left panel). A microelectrode inserted into a peripheral nerve records single‐unit activity from tactile afferent fibres while controlled mechanical stimuli are applied ...

Breathing‐evoked potentials in humans during wakefulness and sleep

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Quiet natural breathing at rest elicits structured breathing‐evoked potentials (BEPs) detectable in scalp EEG. Left, respiratory cycles were identified from the nasal pressure signal and used to time‐lock EEG averaging. Right, the resulting BEPs persist across wakefulness and all sleep stages, including non‐rapid eye movement ...

Synchrony within Aβ mechanoreceptor subtypes governs signal propagation to primary somatosensory cortex

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend We used an optogenetic gain‐of‐function manipulation to investigate how sensory signals from two subtypes of Aβ low threshold mechanoreceptors (LTMRs) contribute to the cortical representation of touch. CatCh, a sensitive and fast channelrhodopsin variant, enables pulsed‐light generation of high‐frequency action potential trains ...
