Anterior and Posterior Cruciate Ligaments Mechanoreceptors: A Review of Basic Science

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2022
Proprioception is a specialized sensory modality encompassing the movement of the joint and its position in space, and it involves the conversion of mechanical deformation of tissues into neural signals.

Is There a Difference in the Distribution of Mechanoreceptors among the Three Sections of the Anterior Talofibular Ligament?

open access: yesMedicina, 2023
Background: We investigated whether the distribution of mechanoreceptors in three sections of the anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) differed. Methods: The ATFL was obtained from 29 ankles of 21 fresh-frozen cadavers and divided into fibular attachment,

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

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 ...

Self-powered and flexible piezo-sensors based on conductivity-controlled GaN nanowire-arrays for mimicking rapid- and slow-adapting mechanoreceptors

open access: yesnpj Flexible Electronics, 2022
Human skin contains slowly adaptive (SA) and rapidly adaptive (RA) mechanoreceptors, which respond differently to external stimuli. Based on human tactile perception principles, the fabrication of a self-powered electronic skin (e-skin) that ...

RETouching upon Mechanoreceptors [PDF]

open access: yesNeuron, 2009
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 ...

Effects of vincristine on the properties of low threshold mechanoreceptors and high threshold mechanoreceptors in the hindpaw glabrous skin of mice [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Brain
Vincristine is an important chemotherapy drug to treat various types of cancer, but it induces peripheral neuropathy, leading to numbness and mechanical allodynia in the hands and feet of patients. The peripheral neuropathy is a dose-limiting toxicity of

What Is Inside the Sinus Tarsi? Mechanoreceptor Distribution, Typing and Clinical Relevance—A Histological and Immunohistochemical Synthesis [PDF]

open access: yesBiomedicines
The sinus tarsi, a small osseoligamentous recess of the subtalar joint, contains multiple soft-tissue structures with a complex sensory network. However, the detailed neural architecture and clinical significance of its innervation remain incompletely ...

Mechanoreceptors in the nose

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Ear, Nose, Throat and Allied Sciences, 2015
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.

Analysis of Nerve Endings in the Superior Labrum-Biceps Complex by Fluorescence Immunohistochemistry and Confocal Laser Microscopy [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ortopedia, 2022
Objectives The capsuloligamentous structures of the shoulder work as static stabilizers, together with the biceps and rotator cuff muscles, increasing the contact surface of the glenoid cavity. Free nerve endings and mechanoreceptors have been identified
