Characterization of Sleep in Aplysia californica [PDF]

open access: yesSleep, 2014
To characterize sleep in the marine mollusk, Aplysia californica.Animal behavior and activity were assessed using video recordings to measure activity, resting posture, resting place preference, and behavior after rest deprivation. Latencies for behavioral responses were measured for appetitive and aversive stimuli for animals in the wake and rest ...

Unconventional serotonergic excitation in Aplysia

Nature, 1977
EXCITATORY potentials of long duration have been observed in vertebrate1–3 and invertebrate4,5 neurones. In Aplysia, Gerschenfeld and Paupardin-Tritsch4 have found that 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) can produce two kinds of long excitatory responses (A′ and α) with different ionic mechanisms.

Identification of histaminergic neurons in Aplysia

Journal of Neurophysiology, 1990
1. We have identified putative histaminergic neurons in the central nervous system of Aplysia californica by light-microscopic autoradiography after uptake of [3H]histamine and by immunohistochemistry with the use of an antibody specific for histamine. 2.

Simulation of a photosensitive Aplysia neuron

Annals of Biomedical Engineering, 1981
A physically-based model has been developed for certain photoresponsive cells in the Aplysia californica central ganglia. The R2 giant neuron and the ventral photoresponsive neuron hyperpolarize when illuminated, due to an increase of membrane permeability to potassium.

FMRFamide is endogenous to the Aplysia heart

Cell & Tissue Research, 1995
The presence of the molluscan neuropeptide FMRFamide was investigated in the heart of the sea hare, Aplysia californica. Immunohistochemical localization and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with radioimmunoassays of HPLC fractions were used to demonstrate the presence of FMRFamide and FLRFamide in the heart.

THE CELLULAR BASIS OF BEHAVIOR IN APLYSIA

Journal of Psychiatric Research, 1971
Abstract This essay includes some of the more important findings of our continuing research on the nervous system of the sea hare, Aplysia . My associates and I have tried and are trying to understand the temporal organization of behavior in terms of cellular processes and macromolecular metabolism which can be readily studied in the large and ...

Aplysia

2002
Abstract Aplysia, a hind-gilled (opistobranch) marine snail (Kandel 1979), is one of the heroes of the cellular revolution in the neurosciences. Its external resemblance to the rabbit earned it the name sea-hare. Yet it is the insides of Aplysia that has turned it into such a highly successful *system in the cellular analysis of simple ...

Motorneuronal control of locomotion in Aplysia

Brain Research, 1979
We have carried out a combined behavioral and cellular analysis of escape locomotion in Aplysia. Using videotape recording we obtained a detailed description of the coordinated movements of the different regions of the foot and body during locomotion. Alternating waves of extension and longitudinal contraction begin at the head and propagate caudally ...

Bulk as a stimulus for satiation in Aplysia

Behavioral Biology, 1975
Aplysia californica when prefed a partial meal of nonnutritional bulk eat significantly less food compared to control animals. The total mass of material consumed by animals fed bulk and then fed to satiation with seaweed was not significantly different from the mass consumed by animals fed to satiation with seaweed alone.
