The Pacinian corpuscle is located in the peripheral nervous system (PNS). It is a type of mechanoreceptor found in various tissues, including the skin and joints, and is responsible for detecting deep pressure and vibration. These sensory receptors transmit signals to the central nervous system (CNS) for processing but are themselves part of the PNS.
What else can I help you with?
What is the name of the cutaneous receptor that detects deep pressure?
The Pacinian corpuscle responds to "mechanical" pressure i.e. touch.
How do your CNS and PNS work together?

Are nerves more myelinated or unmyelinated in the CNS?
Nope. They can be found in the PNS as well. The myelinated ones in the CNS are made my Schwann cells. And the ones made in the PNS are made by oligodendrocytes.
What is the relationship between the CNS and the PNS?
The central nervous system (CNS), which includes the brain and spinal cord, processes and integrates information, while the peripheral nervous system (PNS) connects the CNS to the rest of the body, including limbs and organs. The PNS transmits sensory information to the CNS and carries motor commands from the CNS to muscles and glands. Together, they coordinate and regulate bodily functions and responses to the environment. This interaction ensures that the body can effectively respond to stimuli and maintain homeostasis.
Last step of a reflex arc?
PNS delivers motor response from CNS to effectors...
Which mechanoreceptors detect deep pressure?
Pacinian corpuscle is sensitive to deep pressure.
What is the name of the cutaneous receptor that detects deep pressure?
The Pacinian corpuscle responds to "mechanical" pressure i.e. touch.
What tissue is present in the pacinian corpuscle?
Nervous
Deep pressure receptor skin structure?
pacinian corpuscle
What sensation is associated with activation of the lamellated corpuscle in the skin?
Pressure is the sensation associated with activation of the lamellated corpuscle in the skin. The laminated corpuscle is also referred to as the Pacinian corpuscle.
Is the brain part of the CNS or the PNS?
part of the CNS
What layer of skin contains pacinian corpuscles?
The pacinian corpuscle is present in the dermis layer of the skin. Its function is to detect deep pressure and vibration.
How do the CNS and the PNS interact?
The central nervous system (CNS) consists of the brain and spinal cord, while the peripheral nervous system (PNS) includes nerves outside of the CNS. The PNS relays information to and from the CNS through sensory and motor neurons. The CNS processes the information and sends out responses through the PNS to regulate activities in the body.
What is the structural difference between the CNS and the PNS?
The central nervous system (CNS) consists of the brain and spinal cord, while the peripheral nervous system (PNS) includes nerves outside of the CNS. The CNS acts as the main control center, while the PNS connects the CNS to the rest of the body.
What is the structure for deep cutaneous pressure called?
pacinian corpuscle,,,present in hypodermis or deep in the dermis

What do the nerves in the PNS do?
The PNS gathers all outside and foreign information and directs it to the CNS.
