A critical role for touch neurons in a skin-brain pathway for stress resilience

Melanie D. Schaffler, Micah Johnson, Benjamin Wen Qing Hing, Paul Kahler, Ian Hultman, Sanvesh Srivastava, Justin Arnold, Julie N. Blendy, Rainbo C. Hultman, Ishmail Abdus-Saboor

This study identifies a skin-brain touch pathway involving Mrgprb4-lineage touch neurons that promotes stress resilience by modulating neural activity and corticosterone levels in mice.
