Sentence examples for mechanical sensitivity is from inspiring English sources

The hallmark of peripheral sensitization is represented by increased thermal sensitivity, most likely supported by ERK activation in the cell body of nociceptors followed by synthesis of TRPV1 receptors and their transport to the axon terminals in the inflamed cutaneous tissue, whereas increased mechanical sensitivity is mainly due to central sensitization of spinal cord neurons [ 65].

This increased mechanical sensitivity is mediated by capsaicin-insensitive A-fibers and reflects central sensitization within the central nervous system not peripheral sensitization (Magerl et al., 2001).

The globally optimized ring thickness distribution providing the maximal mechanical sensitivity is obtained and detailedly discussed.

It remains unclear whether an increased intrafusal mechanical sensitivity is related to the vibration-induced performance improvement.

Mechanical sensitivity is explained by size: the smallest link(s) are disproportionately affected by length changes and most strongly influence mechanical output.

However, in response to 265 and 350 Hz stimuli, the maximum mechanical sensitivity is observed at low particle velocity between 0.3 and 4 mm/s, and decreases at the particle velocities above 4 mm/s.

However, mechanical sensitivity was reduced in TRPV2-deficient mice (Fig. 2c e).

Mechanical sensitivity was measured twice, before and after acupuncture treatment given to the affected hind leg in awake mice.

Mechanical sensitivity was measured using the von Frey filament touch test 3 days after CFA injection (Fig. 1A).

Baseline mechanical sensitivity was measured using von Frey filament, then pain was induced by administration of complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) in the ankle joint.

In the experiments testing local caffeine administration (Fig. 3A), mechanical sensitivity was first measured twice, before and after the acupuncture treatment, without caffeine on the first day.
