According to experiments on rats, these neurons react to vibrations and light touches, suggesting that they can be key to good “sexual health,” and to pleasure.
And, in fact, the existence of these neurons was not known: they were Observed in 1860 by the German anatomist Wilhelm Krause, which is why they are called, in anatomy textbooks, Krause’s corpuscles. But their function has not been clarified and these particles have been largely forgotten, according to a team at Harvard Medical School whose previously published results — that is, they have not been peer-reviewed by other experts — It appeared on June 15th on the server puresafe.
Clearly, Krause didn’t have the 21st century techniques to monitor the brain activity of rats when those cells pick up on a vibration or touch. Or to observe the distribution of these particles under an electron microscope – on the one hand, more concentrated in the clitoris, and on the other hand, more diffuse in the penis.
The reaction to the vibrations didn’t stop the researchers themselves from speculating This can explain The reason for the success of the shakers.
Many sensory sensors, located elsewhere in the skin, detect the smallest vibrations: this, for example, is what allows us to determine by touch whether a surface is smooth or rough. But the idea that these sensors are so sensitive to it could shed new light on what goes on in intimacy.
