Corazonin Neurons Contribute to Dimorphic Ethanol Sedation Sensitivity in Drosophila melanogaster
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2022 Exposure to alcohol has multiple effects on nervous system function, and organisms have evolved mechanisms to optimally respond to the presence of ethanol. Sex differences in ethanol-induced behaviors have been observed in several organisms, ranging from

Benthic and hyporheic invertebrate community responses to seasonal flow recession in a groundwater-dominated stream [PDF]
, 2010 Natural hydrological variability in lotic ecosystems can include prolonged periods of flow recession. A reduction in discharge is accompanied by abiotic changes in benthic and hyporheic habitats, often including reductions in s habitat availability ...

Improvements in operant memory of Aplysia are correlated with age and specific gene expression
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2023 The transcription factor Aplysia CCAAT/enhancer binding protein (ApC/EBP) is expressed as an immediate early gene in the cAMP responsive element binding protein (CREB) mediated gene cascade, and it has essential functions in the synaptic consolidation of

Peptide Cotransmitters as Dynamic, Intrinsic Modulators of Network Activity
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2018 Neurons can contain both neuropeptides and “classic” small molecule transmitters. Much progress has been made in studies designed to determine the functional significance of this arrangement in experiments conducted in invertebrates and in the vertebrate
