Celler som är specialiserade på att överföra mekaniska stimuli och förmedla den informationen centralt i nervsystemet. Till mekanoreceptorerna hör hårceller, vilka förmedlar hörsel och balans, och olika somatosensoriska receptorer, ofta med icke-nervcellsanslutningsstrukturer.
Cells specialized to transduce mechanical stimuli and relay that information centrally in the nervous system. Mechanoreceptor cells include the INNER EAR hair cells, which mediate hearing and balance, and the various somatosensory receptors, often with non-neural accessory structures.
