    Zdenek Halata
    Department of Functional Anatomy, University of Hamburg, Hamburg, Germany
    Anat Rec A Discov Mol Cell Evol Biol 271:225-39. 2003
    ..Probably these cells, rather than those acting as mechanoreceptors, are the origin of a highly malignant skin cancer called Merkel cell carcinoma...

    Sophia Schrödter
    Department of Functional Anatomy, University of Hamburg, Martinistrasse 52, 20246 Hamburg, Germany
    Anat Embryol (Berl) 207:19-27. 2003
    ..In contrast, basement membranes are thinnest in the middle aged group. In conclusion, evaluating the histology of nasal respiratory epithelium must take pronounced age-related physiological changes into account...

    Sophia Schrödter
    ENT Department, St Georgs Hospital, Lohmühlenstr 5, 20099 Hamburg, Germany
    Rhinology 42:153-7. 2004
    ..Histological changes in untreated OSAS differ from those of patients during nCPAP-treatment...

    Zdenek Halata
    Institute of Functional Morphology, University of Hamburg, Martinstrasse 52, 22045 Hamburg, Germany
    Anat Embryol (Berl) 209:335-40. 2005
    ..They were flat and contained few osmiophilic granules. We conclude that perinatal apoptosis is responsible for the loss of Merkel cells lacking innervation in NT3 null mice...
  5. ncbi FOXN1 is critical for onycholemmal terminal differentiation in nude (Foxn1) mice
    Lars Mecklenburg
    Department of Dermatology, University Hospital Hamburg Eppendorf, University of Hamburg, Hamburg, Germany
    J Invest Dermatol 123:1001-11. 2004
    ..The nails of nude mice provide new insights into the molecular controls of onychocyte differentiation, and they offer a useful model to investigate the pathogenesis of nail hypergranulosis, a common feature in human nail diseases...
  6. ncbi Neural crest origin of mammalian Merkel cells
    Viktor Szeder
    Department of Cell Biology, Neurobiology and Anatomy, Medical College of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, WI 53226, USA
    Dev Biol 253:258-63. 2003
    ..Merkel cells in whiskers and interfollicular locations express the transgene, beta-galactosidase, identifying them as neural crest descendants. We thus conclude that murine Merkel cells originate from the neural crest...
  7. ncbi Three-dimensional analyses of touch domes in the hairy skin of the cat paw reveal morphological substrates for complex sensory processing
    Satomi Ebara
    Department of Anatomy, Meiji University of Oriental Medicine, Kyoto, Japan
    Neurosci Res 61:159-71. 2008
    ..This intricate pattern of innervation may explain the unique irregular discharges of action potentials typical for this type of mechanoreceptor...
