A simplified anatomical diagram depicting a Meissner (tactile) corpuscle, an encapsulated mechanoreceptor in the dermal papillae of glabrous skin. The illustration shows stacked lamellae within a capsule traversed by a single afferent nerve fiber, representing an Aβ (A-beta) sensory axon. In biological hierarchy, it is a specialized nerve ending within the cutaneous tissue of the integumentary system. In neurophysiology and histology, this FAI (fast-adapting type I) receptor mediates light touch and low-frequency vibration, enabling fine tactile discrimination.
