Rat Merkel Cells Are Mechanoreceptors and Osmoreceptors

Merkel cells (MCs) associated with nerve terminals constitute MC-neurite complexes, which are involved in slowly-adapting type I mechanoreception. Although MCs are known to express voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels and hypotonic-induced membrane deformation is known to lead to Ca(2+) transients, whether...
