Ageing reduces skin wetness sensitivity across the body

Experimental Physiology, 2021
New Findings What is the central question of this study?Ageing impairs the skin's thermal and tactile sensitivity: does ageing also induce loss of skin wetness sensitivity? What is the main finding and its importance?Older adults show an average 15% loss of skin wetness sensitivity, with this sensory deficit being mediated by a combination of ...

Oxygen sensitive Kv channels in the carotid body [PDF]

Respiratory Physiology & Neurobiology, 2007
Hypoxic inhibition of K(+) channels has been documented in many native chemoreceptor cells, and is crucial to initiate reflexes directed to improve tissue O(2) supply. In the carotid body (CB) chemoreceptors, there is a general consensus regarding the facts that a decrease in P(O2) leads to membrane depolarization, increase of Ca(2+) entry trough ...

The relationship between virtual body ownership and temperature sensitivity [PDF]

Journal of The Royal Society Interface, 2013
In the rubber hand illusion, tactile stimulation seen on a rubber hand, that is synchronous with tactile stimulation felt on the hidden real hand, can lead to an illusion of ownership over the rubber hand. This illusion has been shown to produce a temperature decrease in the hidden hand, suggesting that such illusory ownership produces disownership of ...
