The characteristics of the mechanoreceptors of the hip with arthrosis [PDF]
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 ...

RETouching upon Mechanoreceptors [PDF]
The rapidly adapting (RA) low-threshold mechanoreceptors respond to movement of the skin and vibration and are critical for the perception of texture and shape. In this issue of Neuron, two papers (Bourane et al. and Luo et al.) demonstrate that early-born Ret+ sensory neurons are RA mechanoreceptors, whose peripheral nerve terminals are associated ...

Mechanoreceptors in the nose [PDF]
AbstractNasal obstruction is a common symptom. Usually it is due to the presence of enlarged inferior turbinates, adenoid hypertrophy or pathological nasal mass. The most commonly encountered is nasal polyp. The presence of a physically obstructing mass causing the symptom can be easily explained.

A Bioinspired, Multimodal Soft Tactile Skin with Task-Adaptive Perception for Intelligent Robotic Manipulation. [PDF]
Perception in robotic manipulation improves through the cooperative and complementary operation of biologically inspired multimodal tactile sensors. Receptor‐specific contribution analysis identifies which sensing modalities are required for specific tactile tasks.

Wearable Electro-Thermal Haptic Stimulator Driven by a Self-Powered Tactile Sensor for Realistic Stimulus Replication. [PDF]
We present a stimulus‐replicating system combining a tactile sensor with a wearable Peltier thermotactile module and concentric electrotactile electrode. Signals encoding pressure and temperature drive the stimulators to reproduce mechano‐thermal cues on the skin. AlN/PDMS encapsulation and SA/LA PSA ensure mechanical compliance and thermal efficiency.

Tannins in Food: Insights into the Molecular Perception of Astringency and Bitter Taste
Astringency and bitterness are organoleptic properties widely linked to tannin compounds. Due to their significance to food chemistry, the food industry, and to human nutrition and health, these tannins’ taste properties have been a line of worldwide ...
