Proboscis lateralis [PDF]

open access: yesIndian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head & Neck Surgery, 2010
Proboscis lateralis is a rare craniofacial malformation for which no embryological basis has been established. The condition presents with a tubular, nose like structure arising from the medial canthal area or orbit roof. We describe here such a case that was surgically treated.

Cyclopia with proboscis: A rare congenital anomaly

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2021
Cyclopia with a proboscis, a rare congenital anomaly, and a severe form of holoprosencephaly occur as a result of incomplete separation of prosencephalon into two halves of hemispheres during organogenesis.

Transcriptional responses of Aedes aegypti chemosensory tissues in response to volatile DEET and citronella oil. [PDF]

open access: yesInsect Mol Biol
Aedes aegypti females were significantly repelled by both volatile DEET and citronella oil in comparison to control (ethanol‐exposed) mosquitoes. Global gene expression changes were largest in the mosquito mouthparts, with notable downregulation of the three subunits comprising the mosquito CO2 receptor (Gr1, 2 and 3).

True Cyclopia–Very Rare Anomaly [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2014
During our routine postmortem examination, we found a female infant with “True Cyclopia.” The two entire eye balls had fused completely to form one midline organ. The infant was a female who weighed 2910 g. The gestation period was 35 weeks.

Head transcriptome profiling of glossiphoniid leech (Helobdella austinensis) reveals clues about proboscis development

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2022
Cephalization refers to the evolutionary trend towards the concentration of neural tissues, sensory organs, mouth and associated structures at the front end of bilaterian animals. Comprehensive studies on gene expression related to the anterior formation

Activation of specific mushroom body output neurons inhibits proboscis extension and sucrose consumption.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
The ability to modify behavior based on prior experience is essential to an animal's survival. For example, animals may become attracted to a previously neutral odor or reject a previously appetitive food source based on previous encounters.

Regulated inositol synthesis is critical for balanced metabolism and development in Drosophila melanogaster

open access: yesBiology Open, 2021
Myo-inositol is a precursor of the membrane phospholipid, phosphatidylinositol (PI). It is involved in many essential cellular processes including signal transduction, energy metabolism, endoplasmic reticulum stress, and osmoregulation.

The role of proboscis of the malaria vector mosquito Anopheles stephensi in host-seeking behavior

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2011
Background The proboscis is an essential head appendage in insects that processes gustatory code during food intake, particularly useful considering that blood-sucking arthropods routinely reach vessels under the host skin using this proboscis as a probe.

Ultrastructural and Descriptive Study on the Adult Body Surface of Heortia vitessoides (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)

open access: yesInsects, 2023
Heortia vitessoides Moore, 1885 (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) is an economically important lepidopteran pest that caused severe damage to the plantation area of Aquilaria sinensis (Lour.) Gilg, 1825 (Thymelaeaceae), resulting in extensive defoliation of the ...

Sensory Organ Investment Varies with Body Size and Sex in the Butterfly Pieris napi

open access: yesInsects, 2021
In solitary insect pollinators such as butterflies, sensory systems must be adapted for multiple tasks, including nectar foraging, mate-finding, and locating host-plants.
