Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 8, April 2025.ABSTRACT Visual communication in fish is often shaped by their light environment, which influences both sensory (e.g., eye size, opsin gene expression) and signalling traits (e.g., body reflectance). This study explores the phenotypic variation in the visual communication traits of six species of centrarchids (Centrarchidae) inhabiting two contrasting ...

Transabdominal photobiomodulation applications: A systematic review and meta‐analysis
Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.Summary Introduction The escalating prevalence of obesity presents a multifaceted challenge involving genetic, environmental, and behavioral factors, with significant public health implications. Photobiomodulation (PBM) may positively influence metabolic activities in adipose cells and regulate inflammation, potentially impacting obesity.

Orexinergic neurons contribute to autonomic cardiovascular regulation for locomotor exercise
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend This study unveiled the essential role of the orexinergic nervous system in the central circuitry that transmits central command signals for locomotor exercise. We observed the excitation of orexinergic neurons by voluntary locomotor exercise in rats.

Chlorophyll derivatives enhance invertebrate red-light and ultraviolet phototaxis
Scientific Reports, 2017 Chlorophyll derivatives are known to enhance vision in vertebrates. They are thought to bind visual pigments (i.e., opsins apoproteins bound to retinal chromophores) directly within the retina.

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Here, we find that GluN2D‐containing NMDA receptors (NMDARs) are expressed by most vasoactive intestinal peptide neurons in the inferior colliculus (IC). These receptors are less susceptible to Mg2+ blockade compared to GluN2A/B‐containing NMDARs, allowing ions to flow at resting membrane potential.

Photoreceptor degeneration has heterogeneous effects on functional retinal ganglion cell types
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Photoreceptor loss has heterogeneous effects on functional retinal ganglion cell (RGC) types. A, illustrations of cross‐sections of rd10 retinae at different time points during degeneration. Left: P30, rod degeneration has commenced, cones are still unaffected.
