TRP Channels from Sensory Coding to Physiology [PDF]
MetabolitesSensory systems allow the detection of external and internal cues essential for adaptive responses. Chemosensation exemplifies this integration, guiding feeding, mating, and toxin avoidance while also influencing physiological regulation.

Taste shaped the use of botanical drugs [PDF]
eLifeThe perception of taste and flavour (a combination of taste, smell, and chemesthesis), here also referred to as chemosensation, enables animals to find high-value foods and avoid toxins.

Involvement of a Microplusin-like Gene (HlonML-1) in the Olfactory Chemosensation of Haemophysalis longicornis: Expression, RNA Silencing, and Behavioral Implications [PDF]
MicroorganismsThe study of tick olfaction is relatively new compared to that of insects, and the molecular mechanisms involved remain poorly understood. Despite several potential chemosensory genes identified in multiple tick species, these are yet to be validated ...

Morphology and ultrastructure of external sense organs of Drosophila larvae [PDF]
eLifeSensory perception is the ability through which an organism is able to process sensory stimuli from the environment. This stimulus is transmitted from the peripheral sensory organs to the central nervous system, where it is interpreted.

Electrical Generation of Intranasal Irritating Chemosensation
IEEE Access, 2021 Percutaneous electrical stimulation modifies brain and nerve excitability and also stimulates various sensory organs. Although it can be applied to sensory information displays, virtual reality, and human augmentation, the effect on human intranasal ...

ATP activation of peritubular cells drives testicular sperm transport
eLife, 2021 Spermatogenesis, the complex process of male germ cell proliferation, differentiation, and maturation, is the basis of male fertility. In the seminiferous tubules of the testes, spermatozoa are constantly generated from spermatogonial stem cells through ...

Purinergic Signaling in Spermatogenesis
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2022 Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) serves as the essential source of cellular energy. Over the last two decades, however, ATP has also attracted increasing interest as an extracellular signal that activates purinergic plasma membrane receptors of the P2 family.

A Study of Nematocyst Discharge of Physalia physalis and Venom Composition
Biology and Life Sciences Forum, 2023 In this work, we studied the effects of various chemicals on P. physalis nematocyst discharge and the composition of the released venom. The exposure of nematocyst to K+ and Na+ induced a massive discharge in a short time of exposure. Conversely, the Ca2+
