A bio. tools collection of online resources for GPCR research
G protein‐coupled receptors are highly complex signal transduction proteins with many potential biomedical applications. Researchers from different fields work together to improve mechanistic understanding of GPCR function and to transfer that knowledge in order to advance therapeutic options.

Exploring the Activation of the Keap1‐Nrf2‐ARE Pathway by PAHs in Children's Toys
Our study evaluated the skin sensitisation risk of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in toys, revealing that B[k]F, B[b]F and chrysene are highly potent sensitizers. Synergistic effects in PAH mixtures underscore the need to consider combined exposures when assessing environmental risks to children.

We studied the response of Battus polydamas (Papilionidae) larvae fed on Aristolochia ringens (containing several diterpenes) and Aristolochia gigantea (containing sesquiterpenes and acyclic monoterpenoids but no diterpenoids or aristolochic acids). We assessed larval performance on fitness components such as survival and differential gene expression ...

Bacterial purine metabolism modulates C. elegans development and stress tolerance via DAF‐16
To investigate the impact of dietary components on animal growth, an Escherichia coli single‐gene deletion library was screened using the Caenorhabditis elegans growth model. Thirty‐four E. coli mutants were identified to delay worm development. Notably, E.

Non-synaptic inhibition between grouped neurons in an olfactory circuit. [PDF]
Diverse sensory organs, including mammalian taste buds and insect chemosensory sensilla, show a marked compartmentalization of receptor cells; however, the functional impact of this organization remains unclear.

Q-learning with temporal memory to navigate turbulence [PDF]
We consider the problem of olfactory searches in a turbulent environment. We focus on agents that respond solely to odor stimuli, with no access to spatial perception nor prior information about the odor. We ask whether navigation to a target can be learned robustly within a sequential decision making framework.
