Merkels tactile disk. A single sensory nerve ending characterized by a terminal cuplike, expanded tip that is in contact with the base of a single specialized epithelial cell in the epidermis. It functions by receiving touch, pressure, and texture, and relaying the information to the brain.
The Merkel complex is found in both hairy and non-hairy skin and is located in the basal layer of the epidermis (Figure 2.11). The Merkel complex is unencapsulated and consists of a specialized receptor cell, the Merkel cell, and a 1Â° afferent terminal ending, the Merkel disk (Figure 2.20).
