Mechanosensation is the transduction of mechanical stimuli into neural signals. Mechanosensation provides the basis for the senses of light touch, hearing, proprioception, and pain. Mechanoreceptors found in the skin, called cutaneous mechanoreceptors, are responsible for the sense of touch. Tiny cells in the inner ear, called hair cells, are responsible for hearing and balance. States of neuropathic pain, such as hyperalgesia and allodynia, are also directly related to mechanosensation. A wide array of elements are involved in the process of mechanosensation, many of which are still not fully understood.

  • Mechanosensation is the transduction of mechanical stimuli into neural signals. Mechanosensation provides the basis for the senses of light touch, hearing, proprioception, and pain. Mechanoreceptors found in the skin, called cutaneous mechanoreceptors, are responsible for the sense of touch. Tiny cells in the inner ear, called hair cells, are responsible for hearing and balance. States of neuropathic pain, such as hyperalgesia and allodynia, are also directly related to mechanosensation. A wide array of elements are involved in the process of mechanosensation, many of which are still not fully understood. (en)
  • A mecanossensibilização é a transdução de estímulos mecânicos em sinais neurais. A mecanossensibilização fornece a base para os sentidos do toque leve, audição, propriocepção e dor. Os mecanorreceptores encontrados na pele, chamados mecanorreceptores cutâneos, são responsáveis ​​pelo sentido do tato. Pequenas células no ouvido interno, chamadas células ciliadas, são responsáveis ​​pela audição e pelo equilíbrio. Estados de dor neuropática, como hiperalgesia e alodinia, também estão diretamente relacionados à mecanossensibilização. Uma ampla gama de elementos está envolvida no processo de mecanossensibilização, muitos dos quais ainda não são totalmente compreendidos. (pt)
