An Integrated Perspective of Evolution and Development: From Genes to Function to Ear, Lateral Line and Electroreception. [PDF]
Diversity (Basel), 2021 Four sensory systems (vestibular, lateral line, electroreception, auditory) are unique and project exclusively to the brainstem of vertebrates. All sensory neurons depend on a common set of genes (Eya1, Sox2, Neurog1, Neurod1) that project to a dorsal ...

Calcium-Activated Big-Conductance (BK) Potassium Channels Traffic through Nuclear Envelopes into Kinocilia in Ray Electrosensory Cells. [PDF]
Cells, 2023 Electroreception through ampullae of Lorenzini in the little skate, Leucoraja erinacea, involves functional coupling between voltage-activated calcium channels (CaV1.3, cacna1d) and calcium-activated big-conductance potassium (BK) channels (BK, kcnma1 ...

Adaptive shift of active electroreception in weakly electric fish for troglobitic life [PDF]
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 The adaptive-shift hypothesis for the evolution of cave-dwelling species posits that ancestor species in surface habitats had exaptations for subterranean life that were exploited when individuals invaded caves.

Excitatory and inhibitory synaptic mechanisms at the first stage of integration in the electroreception system of the shark [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2014 High impulse rate in afferent nerves is a common feature in many sensory systems that serve to accommodate a wide dynamic range. However, the first stage of integration should be endowed with specific properties that enable efficient handling of the ...

Survey of temporal coding of sensory information. [PDF]
Front Comput NeurosciHere we present evidence for the ubiquity of fine spike timing and temporal coding broadly observed across sensory systems and widely conserved across diverse phyla, spanning invertebrates and vertebrates. A taxonomy of basic neural coding types includes

Treatment strategies for intrauterine adhesion: focus on the exosomes and hydrogels. [PDF]
Front Bioeng Biotechnol, 2023 Intrauterine adhesion (IUA), also referred to as Asherman Syndrome (AS), results from uterine trauma in both pregnant and nonpregnant women. The IUA damages the endometrial bottom layer, causing partial or complete occlusion of the uterine cavity.
