A supramolecular assembly of cone‐specific G‐protein and cryptochrome 4a on lipid bilayer
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Immobilized phospholipid bilayers on a sensor chip surface serve as membrane platform to investigate critical protein–lipid and protein–protein interaction processes by surface plasmon resonance. The putative magnetoreceptor cryptochrome 4a and the myristoylated cone‐specific G‐protein α‐subunit (Gtα) bind with high affinity to immobilized lipid ...

The hidden science of haptics: A pedagogical review of tactile evaluation in cosmetics
International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.This review explores the physiological basis of tactile perception and critically examines classical and emerging sensory methods used in cosmetics, advocating for broader methodological integration and recognition of sensory analysis in the field. Abstract Sensory analysis is a cornerstone of cosmetic development, yet remains underrepresented in peer ...

A history of optogenetics: the development of tools for controlling brain circuits with light [PDF]
, 2011 Understanding how different kinds of neuron in the brain work together to implement sensations, feelings, thoughts, and movements, and how deficits in specific kinds of neuron result in brain diseases, has long been a priority in basic and clinical ...

Color vision: Opsins and options [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1999 A recent estimate suggests that we can potentially distinguish 2.3 million colors (1), and yet we achieve this by comparing the rates at which photons are absorbed in just three classes of retinal photopigment (Fig. 1 Lower). The photopigments consist of 11-cis-retinal bound to different “opsins,” which are members of the large family of G-protein ...

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.The expression of various genes involved in synapse development, stability and/or function was studied in developing mechanosensory neuromasts and electrosensory ampullary organs in sterlet sturgeon. Most were shared, including Slc17a8, Slc1a3 and Nrxn3, but Cbln18 was neuromast‐restricted and Tulp1 was ampullary organ‐restricted.

Harnessing blue light photobiomodulation for cancer therapy: Evidence from a systematic review
Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.Conventional treatments for various types of cancer are often associated with tumor recurrence and aggressiveness. Photobiomodulation with blue light (BL; 450–470 nm) emerges as a promising alternative with antitumor effects. This systematic review, with 37 in vitro and in vivo studies from 2002 to 2024, revealed that BL reduces cell viability ...

Vision Research, 2011 Mouse cone photoreceptors, like those of most mammals including humans, express cone opsins derived from two ancient families: S-opsin (gene Opn1sw) and M-opsin (gene Opn1mw). Most C57Bl/6 mouse cones co-express both opsins, but in dorso-ventral counter-gradients, with M-opsin dominant in the dorsal retina and S-opsin in the ventral retina, and S-opsin

Optimal neuromuscular performance requires motor neuron phosphagen kinases
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Motor neuron (MN) terminals in fruit flies, mice and humans contain phosphagen kinases, a key enzyme in their energy storage and buffering system. Here we knocked down the primary phosphagen kinase in fruit fly larvae (arginine kinase 1 (ArgK1)) but were surprised to find that MN endurance was unaffected.
