It stimulates mechanoreceptors in your brain, which decreases your pain perception. ❋ Judith Lothian RN (2010)
Air pressure in our ears is also translated into neural signals once it is processed by special auditory receptors while mechanoreceptors turn physical pressure from touch or pain into more action potentials. ❋ William Harryman (2009)
What you have described is a reflex arc that is initiated by triggering mechanoreceptors in the dogs ears. ❋ Unknown (2006)
The first pair of antennae is often sexually dimorphic and bears chemoreceptors and mechanoreceptors. ❋ Unknown (2008)
U. Thurm, Steps in the transducer process of mechanoreceptors, in ❋ Unknown (1972)
Hair cells of the inner ear are exquisite mechanoreceptors: minute motion of their apical hair bundles by sound becomes an electrical signal that is then transmitted to the brain. ❋ PhysOrg Team (2010)
That suggests the beetles have mechanoreceptors, probably in their joints, which translate frictional forces into signals that trigger grooming behavior, Gorb said. ❋ Unknown (2010)
The second of the prothoracic nerves, IN2, runs to the floor of the propectus, where it presumably innervates a similar battery of mechanoreceptors registering movement between the propectuses and the basisternum. ❋ Richard P. Berry Et Al. (2010)
For example, I thought maybe the 2nd person's movements caused pressure disturbances in the surrounding air and a pressure wave propagated to the 1st person and activated the mechanoreceptors in the 1st person's skin. ❋ Unknown (2009)
The researchers found that the fibres, called unmyelinated low-threshold mechanoreceptors
The mechanoreceptors that do this job are called Pacinian corpuscles. ❋ Unknown (2009)

These are classified into five types of sensory receptors, the mechanoreceptors, photoreceptors, chemoreceptors, thermoreceptors and electroreceptors. ❋ Unknown (2008)
• Type III mechanoreceptors are found in joint capsules and extracapsular ligaments. ❋ Unknown (2008)
Other studies have shown that just-visible indentation is in the range of 250 to 500 µm, which is in the middle of the dynamic range of cutaneous mechanoreceptors ❋ Unknown (2008)
Boulais N, Pennec JP, Lebonvallet N, Pereira U, Rougier N, Dorange G, Chesne C, Misery L. Rat Merkel cells are mechanoreceptors and osmoreceptors. ❋ Unknown (2010)
