| Receptors, Sensory Nerve Endings, Sensory | Neuroreceptors | Receptors, Neural | Neural Receptors | Sensory Receptors | Nerve Ending, Sensory | Neural Receptor | Neuroreceptor | Receptor, Neural | Receptor, Sensory | Sensory Nerve Ending | Sensory Nerve Endings Specialized neurons or parts of neurons which transduce sensory information and relay it centrally. Included are receptors for stimuli outside the body (exteroceptors) as well as receptors for stimuli from within the body itself (interoceptors and proprioceptors). Sensory receptors may include accessory structures which condition (e.g., filter) the input received by the receptor neurons themselves. | |
