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

Ultrastructure of the Sensilla on the Antennae and Mouthparts of Bean Weevils, Megabruchidius dorsalis (Coleoptera: Bruchinae)

open access: yesInsects, 2021
Megabruchidius dorsalis (Fåhraeus, 1839) (Coleoptera: Bruchinae) is an important pest that damages the seeds of Gleditsia L. (Fabaceae: Caesalpinioideae). This beetle searches for host plants with its sensory system.

Synthetic and Bio-Artificial Tactile Sensing: A Review

open access: yesSensors, 2013
This paper reviews the state of the art of artificial tactile sensing, with a particular focus on bio-hybrid and fully-biological approaches. To this aim, the study of physiology of the human sense of touch and of the coding mechanisms of tactile ...

Modelling the mechanoreceptor's dynamic behaviour [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, 2015
AbstractAll sensory receptors adapt, i.e. they constantly adjust their sensitivity to external stimuli to match the current demands of the natural environment. Electrophysiological responses of sensory receptors from widely different modalities seem to exhibit common features related to adaptation, and these features can be used to examine the ...

MECHANORECEPTORS OF THE RABBIT DUODENUM [PDF]

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of Experimental Physiology, 1984
A preparation is described which allowed the investigation of single‐unit afferent activity in non‐myelinated mesenteric nerves in urethane‐anaesthetized rabbits. Three classes of mechano‐receptors were isolated and were located in the muscularis externa (n = 17), the serosa (n = 5) and the mesentery (n = 2).
