Relativistic effects on the Fukui function [PDF]

Theoretical Chemistry Accounts, 2010
The extent of relativistic effects on the Fukui function, which describes local reactivity trends within conceptual density functional theory (DFT), and frontier orbital densities has been analysed on the basis of three benchmark molecules containing the heavy elements: Au, Pb, and Bi.

The olfactory critical period is determined by activity-dependent Sema7A/PlxnC1 signaling within glomeruli

eLife, 2021
In mice, early exposure to environmental odors affects social behaviors later in life. A signaling molecule, Semaphorin 7A (Sema7A), is induced in the odor-responding olfactory sensory neurons.

Density functional theory, chemical reactivity, and the Fukui functions [PDF]

Foundations of Chemistry, 2022
AbstractWe review the early works which were precursors of the Conceptual Density Functional Theory. Starting from Thomas–Fermi approximation and from the exact formulation of Density Functional Theory by Hohenberg and Kohn’s theorem, we will introduce electronegativity and the theory of hard and soft acids and bases.

Hypothetical Roles of the Olfactory Tubercle in Odor-Guided Eating Behavior

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2020
Olfaction plays an important role in the evaluation, motivation, and palatability of food. The chemical identity of odorants is coded by a spatial combination of activated glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, which is referred to as the odor map.

Autistic-Like Behavior and Impairment of Serotonin Transporter and AMPA Receptor Trafficking in N-Ethylmaleimide Sensitive Factor Gene-Deficient Mice

Frontiers in Genetics, 2021
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD), characterized by profound impairment in social interactions and communication skills, is the most common neurodevelopmental disorder.

Using underwater video to evaluate the performance of the Fukui trap as a mitigation tool for the invasive European green crab (Carcinus maenas) in Newfoundland, Canada [PDF]

PeerJ, 2018
The European green crab (Carcinus maenas) is a destructive marine invader that was first discovered in Newfoundland waters in 2007 and has since become established in nearshore ecosystems on the south and west coast of the island.

Pain-related neuronal ensembles in the primary somatosensory cortex contribute to hyperalgesia and anxiety

iScience, 2023
Summary: The mechanism by which acute pain or itch information at the periphery is processed in the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) remains unclear.

Sema7A/PlxnCl signaling triggers activity-dependent olfactory synapse formation

Nature Communications, 2018
The molecular mechanisms underlying synapse formation in the olfactory bulb are not fully understood. Here the authors demonstrate that semaphorin 7A on olfactory sensory neurons, and its receptor plexin C1 expressed on mitral and tufted cells, is ...

Opposing Roles of Dopamine Receptor D1- and D2-Expressing Neurons in the Anteromedial Olfactory Tubercle in Acquisition of Place Preference in Mice

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2019
Olfaction induces adaptive motivated behaviors. Odors associated with food induce attractive behavior, whereas those associated with dangers induce aversive behavior.
