Low‐threshold cutaneous mechanoreceptors on the foot sole have enhanced sensitivity when skin temperature is elevated

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 ...

Validation of the International Weed Genomics Consortium genome annotation pipeline through reannotation of the model species Arabidopsis thaliana

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract The International Weed Genomics Consortium (IWGC) has sequenced and annotated the genomes of over 30 weed species, generating genomic resources to understand their biology, evolution, and adaptation. The objective of this study was to evaluate the semi‐automated, isoform sequencing (Iso‐seq)‐based, IWGC genome annotation pipeline by ...

Immunohistochemical characterization of normal canine Merkel cells

, 2003
Cutaneous Merkel cells (MCs) have been well documented in humans, but less in other mammals. In dogs, there are only a few references about immunohistochemical characterization of MCs.

An elastic segment of the whisker shaft enables coding of the whisking phase via whisker torsion in rats and mice

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 7, Page 1910-1924, July 2026.
An elastic segment was found in the basal part of the whisker shaft in rats and mice. Application of force to the whisker bulb of isolated follicles caused bending and twisting of this segment. Active whisker movements deform this segment, causing whisker shaft deflection and selective activation of mechanoreceptors at different phases of whisking ...

Rational treatment selection for primary Merkel Cell Carcinoma: a Rational MCC RCT comparing surgery and radiotherapy with parallel observational study

Efficacy and Mechanism Evaluation
Background Merkel cell carcinoma is a rare locally invasive skin cancer of older people. Standard management for primary Merkel cell carcinoma is surgery and/or radiotherapy, with no standard of care or unity of practice, based on retrospective ...

The Merkel Cell in Oral Human Mucosa

, 1977
A study of the mucosal Merkel cells from 10 patients showed that the cell contained an intranuclear rodlet, clear cell qualities, fine desmosomes, characteristic membrane-bound Merkel granules, and cellular "horns" and had a close relationship to ...

Skin Cancer Predisposition Genes, Full‐Body Skin Examinations, Familial Disclosure, and Genetic Testing Among High‐Risk Individuals

International Journal of Dermatology, Volume 65, Issue 7, Page 1431-1441, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background There is a lack of knowledge in full‐body skin examinations (FBSEs) in the context of pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants (PV/LPV) in skin cancer predisposition genes (CPGs). This study assessed the association between carrier status of PV/LPV in skin CPGs and FBSEs and described the patterns of family letter receipt, familial ...

Copy Number Analysis in Congenital Nevi: Concordance and Diagnostic Limitations of aCGH, sWGS, and Methylation Sequencing

Pigment Cell &Melanoma Research, Volume 39, Issue 4, July 2026.
Distinguishing proliferative nodules from melanoma in congenital melanocytic nevi remains challenging. While aCGH, sWGS, and methylation sequencing show high concordance for broad CNAs, higher‐resolution methods detect additional focal alterations that can lead to discordant classifications.

Merkel cell carcinoma of the auriche.

, 2005
: Merkel cell carcinoma is a rare malignant tumor of the skin. The face and extremities are the most common locations. We present a case of Merkel cell carcinoma of the auricle in a 93-year-old man subsequently treated with surgery and radiotherapy.
