Borophene‐based sensing platforms: Pioneering ultrasensitive detection

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
Schematic Diagram of Performance Optimization Strategies and Sensing Application Characteristics of Two‐Dimensional Boron‐Based Materials in Novel Sensors. Abstract Borophene is an emerging two‐dimensional (2D) material. Since significant breakthroughs were achieved in the experimental synthesis of borophene, the exploration and development of ...

Electrophysiological Responses of Gustatory Receptor Neurons on the Labella of the Common Malaria Mosquito,Anopheles quadrimaculatus(Diptera: Culicidae) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Entomology, 2016
We recorded electrical responses from sensory cells associated with gustatory sensilla on the labella of female Anopheles quadrimaculatus Say to salt, sucrose, quinine (a feeding deterrent), and the insect repellent, N,N-diethyl-3-methylbenzamide (DEET). A salt-sensitive cell responded to increasing concentrations of sodium chloride.

Identification and characterization of interneurons in drosophila gustatory circuitry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Precise control of feeding behaviour is essential for the survival of animals and is largely determined by internal nutritional state and food palatability.

Functional olfactory sensory neurons housed in olfactory sensilla on the ovipositor of the hawkmoth Manduca sexta.

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2016
Olfactory systems evolved to detect and identify volatile chemical cues, in many cases across great distances. However, the precision of copulatory and oviposition behaviors suggest that they may be guided by olfactory cues detected by sensory systems ...

Cognition in menopausal women

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Cognitive health in postmenopausal women is significantly affected by hormonal shifts, especially the drop in estrogen levels. This review explores the intricate relationship between menopause and cognitive functions across six domains: perception, attention, memory, language, executive functioning, and motor skills.

The neuronal and molecular basis of quinine-dependent bitter taste signaling in Drosophila larvae

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2014
Bitter sensing can alert an animal that a specific type of food is potentially harmful for the organism and should not be consumed. However, not all bitter compounds are equally toxic and some bitter tastants may even have a positive valence in certain ...

Can trigeminal sensations impact saltiness perception? A mini‐review

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Many food companies have begun to reduce the salt content in their products due to health concerns; however, this reduction in salt content can affect the food's sensory appeal and flavour complexity. Flavour is defined as a combination of odour (i.e., smell), taste (i.e., gustation) and trigeminal sensations (i.e., chemesthesis).

Transsynaptic transport of wheat germ agglutinin expressed in a subset of type II taste cells of transgenic mice

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2008
Background Anatomical tracing of neural circuits originating from specific subsets of taste receptor cells may shed light on interactions between taste cells within the taste bud and taste cell-to nerve interactions.

Exocrine Gland Dysfunction in Parkinson's Disease: Pathophysiology, Clinical Manifestations, and Therapeutic Perspectives—A Narrative Review

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Non‐motor symptoms, especially autonomic dysfunction, are major contributors to disability and decreased quality of life in Parkinson's disease (PD). Despite being common and having a wide range of clinical facets, exocrine gland dysfunction is still not well recognized and managed.

Molecular and cellular designs of insect taste receptor system

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2010
The insect gustatory receptors (GRs) are members of a large G-protein coupled receptor family distantly related to the insect olfactory receptors. They are phylogenetically different from taste receptors of most other animals.
