Postnatal developmental changes in the laryngeal chemosensory cell clusters of rats

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Chemosensory cell clusters appeared in the rat larynx 2 days after birth and were already connected to afferent nerve fibers. Their number increased until 3 weeks of age, then stabilized while continuing to grow through the addition of new cells. Because their number reached a plateau around the time of weaning, their development may be linked to ...

Phylogenetic history shapes the composition of floral scents in a specialized pollination mutualism

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Most studies of the chemical ecology of plant–pollinator interactions emphasize the role of pollinator‐mediated selection in shaping floral scent composition. Nevertheless, phylogeny may constrain the metabolic pathways underlying these profiles, thereby influencing the evolutionary trajectory of the emitted signals.

Genetic sensitivity to the bitter taste of 6-n-propylthiouracil (PROP) and its association with Physiological mechanisms controlling Body Mass Index (BMI) [PDF]

, 2014
Taste sensitivity to the bitter compound 6-n-propylthiouracil (PROP) is considered a marker for individual differences in taste perception that may influence food preferences and eating behavior, and thereby energy metabolism.

Transcriptome and Hormone Regulations Shape Drought Stress‐Dependent Fusarium Head Blight Susceptibility in Different Barley Genotypes

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Little is known about regulatory mechanisms that crop plants use to respond to combinations of abiotic and biotic stress. We analysed four barley genotypes under simultaneous Fusarium culmorum infection and drought stress by phenotyping for Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) disease, drought stress responses, hormone profiling and transcriptome ...

The full repertoire of Drosophila gustatory receptors for detecting an aversive compound. [PDF]

, 2015
The ability to detect toxic compounds in foods is essential for animal survival. However, the minimal subunit composition of gustatory receptors required for sensing aversive chemicals in Drosophila is unknown.

Exacerbated ATP transmission in the carotid body is linked to glomus cell expansion in spontaneously hypertensive rats

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Exacerbated ATP signalling in the carotid body (CB) of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) arises from expansion of the chemosensory glomus cell compartment and reduced extracellular ATP metabolism, leading to increased purinergic drive.

Solution structure of a chemosensory protein from the moth Mamestra brassicae [PDF]

Biochemical Journal, 2003
Chemosensory proteins (CSPs) are believed to be involved in chemical communication and perception. A number of such proteins, of molecular mass 13kDa, have been isolated from different sensory organs of a wide range of insect species. Several CSPs have been identified in the antennae and proboscis of the moth Mamestra brassicae. CSPMbraA6, a 112-amino-

Heterogeneity in Surface Sensing Suggests a Division of Labor in Pseudomonas aeruginosa Populations [PDF]

, 2019
The second messenger signaling molecule cyclic diguanylate monophosphate (c-di-GMP) drives the transition between planktonic and biofilm growth in many bacterial species.

Cannabinoid exposure during pregnancy: Cardiorespiratory effects and offspring outcomes

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Prenatal exposure to cannabinoids has been investigated across human and animal studies to understand its impact on physiological development. Evidence suggests that early‐life cannabinoid exposure influence multiple developmental processes, extending beyond neurodevelopmental outcomes to potentially affect placental function ...
