Piezo2 is required for Merkel cell mechanotransduction
How we sense touch remains fundamentally unknown(1,2). The Merkel cell-neurite complex is a gentle touch receptor in the skin that mediates slowly-adapting (SA) responses of Aβ sensory fibers to encode fine details of objects(3-6). This mechanoreceptor complex was recognized to play an essential rol...
