Immunohistochemical detection of piezo1 and piezo2 in human digital meissner ´s corpuscles

CONCLUSIONS: PIEZO1 and PIEZO2 are expressed exclusively in the axon of a subpopulation of human digital Meissner corpuscles, thus suggesting that not only PIEZO2, but also PIEZO1 may be involved in the mechanotransduction from low-threshold mechanoreceptors.PMID:38109982 | DOI:10.1016/j.aanat.2023.152200
