The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Mechanoreceptors in the fingertip skin allow us to explore objects and to feel a vast range of textures. We recorded responses from individual low‐threshold mechanoreceptive afferents in humans while dynamic stimuli were swept across their receptive fields, systematically varying force, velocity and spatial period.

The 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
The 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 ...

The 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 ...

The 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 ...

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend The regeneration of Aβ low‐threshold mechanoreceptors (Aβ‐LTMRs), sensory neurons responsible for discriminative touch, has not previously been explored. Here, we took advantage of the selective expression of Calb1 in Aβ‐LTMRs to generate two genetic mouse models for studying their regenerative response after nerve injury.
