A dedicated skin-to-brain circuit for cool sensation in mice

Abstract Perception of external temperature is essential for maintaining homeostasis and avoiding thermal injury. Although molecular thermosensors such as transient receptor potential melastatin type 8 (TRPM8) have been identified, the neural circuits responsible for transmitting cool signals remain...
