Volatile Organic Compounds of Diverse Origins and Their Changes Associated With Cultivar Decay in a Fungus‐Farming Termite

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 2, February 2025.
Fungus‐farming termites cultivate Termitomyces fungi in gardens free from other fungi, except when colonies decline and Pseudoxylaria take over. Volatilomes of healthy colonies are dominated by fungus comb and termite compounds. Longipinocarvone and longiverbenone are only emitted during decay suggesting involvement in Termitomyces defence or ...

Phenotypic and Transcriptomic Analysis Revealed a Lack of Risk Perception by Native Tadpoles Toward Novel Non‐Native Fish

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2024.
Our study reveals a lack of risk perception by native tadpoles toward novel alien fish and validates the prey naivety hypothesis, as well as providing new evidence for this hypothesis from phenotypic and molecular perspectives. ABSTRACT The introduction of alien species poses a serious threat to native biodiversity, and mountain lake systems in the ...

SIRT1 mediates the excitability of spinal CaMKIIα‐positive neurons and participates in neuropathic pain by controlling Nav1.3

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 30, Issue 6, June 2024.
The downregulation of SIRT1 in the SDH, following CCI, leads to increased histone H3 acetylation in the Scn3a promoter region. This promotes the expression of Nav1.3, which subsequently causes CaMKIIα+ neurons activation, resulting in pain. Alleviating pain by reversing SIRT1 downregulation can be a potential therapeutic target for local spinal cord ...

Olfactory receptors in Bactrocera species for sustainable fruit fly management: A review and future perspectives

Physiological Entomology, Volume 49, Issue 2, Page 67-90, June 2024.
Olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) in insect antennae project axons to glomeruli in the antennal lobe for odor processing by local interneurons. Uniglomerular projection neurons (PNs) relay processed odor information to the mushroom body and lateral horn.

Transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation modulates depression‐like phenotype induced by high‐fat diet via P2X7R/NLRP3/IL‐1β in the prefrontal cortex

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 30, Issue 5, May 2024.
Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation can reduce the depression‐like behaviors of high‐fat diet‐induced ZDF rats by modulating the anti‐inflammatory effects generated by the P2X7R/NLRP3/IL‐1β signaling pathway in the PFC, which provides a promising mechanism for taVNS clinical treatment of diabetes combined with depression.

Invasion of an Afrotemperate forest complex by the polyphagous shot hole borer beetle

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 172, Issue 4, Page 354-369, April 2024.
Polyphagous shot hole borer, Euwallacea fornicatus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae, Scolytinae), is a serious invasive tree‐killing pest that has not been studied in natural forest systems. We determined the drivers of PSHB colonization in 1682 trees (68 species) in a native Afrotemperate forest.

CUCURBITACINAS COMO FATOR DE RESISTÊNCIA A INSETOS-PRAGA

Revista Caatinga, 2007
The 20th century was marked by great discovers, which had a deep impact on plants resistance against pest insects. In this context, high studies were developed about cucurbitacins, an important group of secondary substances produced by plants.

Allomonal effect of breath contributes to differential attractiveness of humans to the African malaria vector Anopheles gambiae.

Malaria journal, 2004
BACKGROUND: Removal of exhaled air from total body emanations or artificially standardising carbon dioxide (CO2) outputs has previously been shown to eliminate differential attractiveness of humans to certain blackfly (Simuliidae) and mosquito (Culicidae) species.
