Mechanoreceptory uložené ve škáře jak ochlupené, tak neochlupené kůže. Rychle se adaptují, obsahují aferentní nervové vlákno obklopené pouzdrem z mnohočetných koncentrických vrstev. Mají velké receptivní pole a jsou citlivé na podněty s vyšším kmitočtem (např. vibrace).

Rapidly adapting mechanoreceptors found in subcutaneous tissue beneath both hairy and glabrous skin. Pacinian corpuscles contain an afferent nerve fiber surrounded by a capsule with multiple concentric layers. They have large receptive fields and are most sensitive to high-frequency stimuli, such as vibration.
