Pharmacological And Genetic Reversal Of Age-Dependent Cognitive Deficits Attributable To Decreased Presenilin Function [PDF]
, 2010 Alzheimer\u27s disease (AD) is the leading cause of cognitive loss and neurodegeneration in the developed world. Although its genetic and environmental causes are not generally known, familial forms of the disease (FAD) are attributable to mutations in a

Courtship initiation is stimulated by acoustic signals in Drosophila melanogaster.
PLoS ONE, 2008 Finding a mating partner is a critical task for many organisms. It is in the interest of males to employ multiple sensory modalities to search for females.

Kin recognition: Neurogenomic response to mate choice and sib mating avoidance in a parasitic wasp.
PLoS ONE, 2020 Sib mating increases homozygosity, which therefore increases the risk of inbreeding depression. Selective pressures have favoured the evolution of kin recognition and avoidance of sib mating in numerous species, including the parasitoid wasp Venturia ...

Magnetoreception Regulates Male Courtship Activity in Drosophila.
PLoS ONE, 2016 The possible neurological and biophysical effects of magnetic fields on animals is an area of active study. Here, we report that courtship activity of male Drosophila increases in a magnetic field and that this effect is regulated by the blue light ...

Physiological Costs of Repetitive Courtship Displays in Cockroaches Handicap Locomotor Performance [PDF]
, 2015 Courtship displays are typically thought to have evolved via female choice, whereby females select mates based on the characteristics of a display that is expected to honestly reflect some aspect of the male’s quality.

Courtship Behavior in \u3ci\u3eHabronattus Captiosus\u3c/i\u3e (Araneae: Salticidae) [PDF]
, 2017 Courtship display of Habronattus captiosus involves several behavioral elements common to other members of the Habronattus coecatus species group. The one unique element is vibration of the patellae when raised over the opisthosoma.

Association of Corticospinal Tract Asymmetry With Ambulatory Ability After Intracerebral Hemorrhage
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Ambulatory ability after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is important to patients. We tested whether asymmetry between ipsi‐ and contra‐lesional corticospinal tracts (CSTs) assessed by diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is associated with post‐ICH ambulation.
