For example, the general sense of touch, which is known as somatosensation, can be separated into light pressure, deep pressure, vibration, itch, pain, temperature, or hair movement. Ruffini endings are slow adapting, encapsulated receptors that respond to skin stretch and are present in both the glabrous and hairy skin. Ruffini endings detect stretch, deformation within joints, and warmth. The peripheral nervous system (PNS) consists of sensory receptors that extend from the central nervous system (CNS) to communicate with other parts of the body. The bulbous corpuscles (also known as Ruffini endings) detect tension deep in the skin and fascia. This allows sodium ions to flow into the cell, creating a receptor potential. The cells that transduce sensory stimuli into the electrochemical signals of the nervous system are classified on the basis of structural or functional aspects of the cells. a. medial geniculate nucleus. Deeper in the dermis, near the base, are Ruffini endings, which are also known as bulbous corpuscles.
