The medicinal leech (Hirudo verbana) is an annelid (segmented worm) and one of the classic model systems in neuroscience. It has been used in research for over 50 years and was one of the first animals in which intracellular recordings of mechanosensory neurons were carried out.

Toward Understanding Protocell Mechanosensation
Origins of Life and Evolution of Biospheres, 2010Mechanosensitive (MS) channels can prevent bacterial bursting during hypo-osmotic shocks by responding to increases in lateral tension at the membrane level through an integrated and coordinated opening mechanism. Mechanical regulation in protocells could have been one of the first mechanisms to evolve in order to preserve their integrity against ...

We focus on studying ways to encode mechanical information with soft sensing systems to provide future robots with exteroception and proprioception capabilities, as naturally as possible. Recently, we have shown developments on soft artificial mechanosensing by exploiting smart layouts in combination with soft materials, like elastomers and conductive ...

Mechanosensing mucosal immunity
Science, 2019Immunology In lymph nodes, fibroblastic reticular cells (FRCs) and associated collagen fibers assemble into a network of “conduits.” The network is believed to allow the swift and efficient uptake of lymph-borne antigens. The role of these networks in other lymphoid tissues is less well described. Chang et al.
