Chemo- and Thermosensory Responsiveness of Grueneberg Ganglion Neurons Relies on Cyclic Guanosine Monophosphate Signaling Elements [PDF]

, 2011
Neurons of the Grueneberg ganglion (GG) in the anterior nasal region of mouse pups respond to cool temperatures and to a small set of odorants. While the thermosensory reactivity appears to be mediated by elements of a cyclic guanosine monophosphate ...

Biocompatible PVDF Nanofibers with Embedded Magnetite Nanodiscs Enable Wireless Magnetoelectric Stimulation in Premotor Cortex

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Flexible, biocompatible PVDF nanofibers embedded with magnetite nanodiscs enable wireless magnetoelectric neuromodulation. Shape anisotropy of the nanodiscs facilitates magnetostrictive strain transfer under alternating magnetic fields, allowing activation of neurons in vitro and behavioral modulation in vivo, without requiring rigid implants or ...

Reduced olfactory acuity in recently flightless insects suggests rapid regressive evolution

BMC Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Background Insects have exceptionally fast smelling capabilities, and some can track the temporal structure of odour plumes at rates above 100 Hz. It has been hypothesized that this fast smelling capability is an adaptation for flying.

Performance‐Recoverable Closed‐Loop Neuroprosthetic System

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A self‐healing and stretchable bilayer (SSB) electrode with spontaneous performance recovery consists of a nanomembrane (closely packed aligned Pt‐coated Ag nanowires embedded in the self‐healing polymer) and a nanocomposite (Pt‐coated Ag flakes in the self‐healing polymer).

The source of spontaneous activity in the main olfactory bulb of the rat. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
In vivo, most neurons in the main olfactory bulb exhibit robust spontaneous activity. This paper tests the hypothesis that spontaneous activity in olfactory receptor neurons drives much of the spontaneous activity in mitral and tufted cells via ...

The Olfactory Nervous System Of Terrestrial And Aquatic Vertebrates [PDF]

, 2011
Animals in their natural milieu are surrounded by odors. These odors are rich source of information, and are perceived by sophisticated olfactory systems, that have evolved over time.

Unraveling Adaptation in Eukaryotic Pathways: Lessons from Protocells [PDF]

, 2013
Eukaryotic adaptation pathways operate within wide-ranging environmental conditions without stimulus saturation. Despite numerous differences in the adaptation mechanisms employed by bacteria and eukaryotes, all require energy consumption.

Computational Biology of Olfactory Receptors [PDF]

Current Bioinformatics, 2009
Olfactory receptors, in addition to being involved in first step of the physiological processes that leads to olfaction, occupy an important place in mammalian genomes. ORs constitute super families in these genomes. Elucidating ol-factory receptor function at a molecular level can be aided by a computationally derived structure and an understanding of

Genetic diversity of canine olfactory receptors [PDF]

BMC Genomics, 2009
Abstract Background Evolution has resulted in large repertoires of olfactory receptor (OR) genes, forming the largest gene families in mammalian genomes. Knowledge of the genetic diversity of olfactory receptors is essential if we are to understand the differences in olfactory sensory capability between individuals ...

Additive Manufacturing of Neuromorphic Systems

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The crossover of additive Manufacturing (AM) and neuromorphic engineering promises a new paradigm in the fabrication of intelligent hardware—one that is sustainable, scalable, cost‐efficient, and customizable. The AM‐printed neuromorphic hardware (electronics and mechanical systems) is examined, and we discussed the technological integration.
