McsB regulates CtsR thermosensing through peripheral arginine phosphorylation.

Journal of Molecular Biology
When cells sense an elevated temperature in the environment, the bacterial master transcription repressor CtsR becomes phosphorylated and inactivated by the arginine kinase McsB to initiate the expression of heat-shock genes.

Individual differences in oral thermosensation

Physiology & Behavior, 2006
Although oral thermosensation is critical to the perception of food and drinks, little information is available on the organization of individual differences in these abilities. We examined the relationship between measures of cooling and warming on the tongue and lip and the association of these measures to taste sensitivity in a sample of 76 healthy ...

Thermosensation involving thermo-TRPs

Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 2021
The transient receptor potential (TRP) channels constitute a superfamily of large ion channels that are activated by a wide range of chemical, mechanical and thermal stimuli. TRP channels with temperature sensitivity are called thermo-TRPs. They are involved in diverse physiological functions through their detection of external environmental ...

Quantitative thermosensation in a single touch

Sensors and Actuators A: Physical, 2021
Abstract Thermosensation is the skin perception of thermal stimuli, including temperature and temperature changing rate. Measurements of the thermal transport properties of materials in the environment by robotic hand can help robots analyze environment conditions and make decisions.

TRP Channels and Thermosensation

2014
Several TRP channels exhibit highly temperature-dependent gating properties, which leads to steep changes in depolarising current upon either cooling or heating. Based on this characteristic feature, these so-called "thermoTRPs" have been widely studied with the aim to elucidate their potential key role as thermosensors in the somatosensory system and ...

Thermosensation and TRP Channels

Somatosensory neurons can sense external temperature by converting sensation of temperature information to neural activity via afferent input to the central nervous system. Various populations of somatosensory neurons have specialized gene expression, including expression of thermosensitive transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels ...

[Mechanisms Underlying Thermosensation].

Brain and nerve = Shinkei kenkyu no shinpo, 2022
The ability to sense ambient temperatures is essential for human survival. Sensory nerve endings contain ion channels that are activated by temperature stimuli, which lead to cation influx and depolarization with consequent action potential generation via activation of voltage-gated Na+ channels.

Electronic Skin with Multifunction Sensors Based on Thermosensation

Advanced Materials, 2017
A multifunctional electronic skin (e-skin) with multimodal sensing capabilities of perceiving mechanical and thermal stimuli, discriminating matter type, and sensing wind is developed using the thermosensation of a platinum ribbon array, whose temperature varies with conductive or convective heat transfer toward the surroundings.
