Characterising the stimulus-response function of mouse C-Low threshold mechanoreceptors to mechanical stimuli <i>in vivo</i>

2024-03-18

Abstract excerpt

C-low threshold mechanoreceptors (C-LTMRs) in animals (termed C-tactile (CT) fibres in humans) are a subgroup of C-fibre primary afferents, which innervate hairy skin and respond to low threshold punctate indentations and brush stimuli. These afferents respond to gentle, touch stimuli and are implicated in mediating pleasant/affective touch. These afferents have traditionally been studied using low-throughput, tec...
