Abstract
⺠Acid-sensing ion channel 2 (ASIC2) has been postulated as a putative mechanoprotein. ⺠ASIC2 expression was examined in cutaneous Meissner and Pacinian corpuscles of Macaca fascicularis. ⺠ASIC2 was detected in the axons of both kinds of cutaneos mechanoreceptors. ⺠ASIC2 may be involved in touch sense.
