Probing the optimal architecture and molecular mechanism of insect odorant receptor heteromeric channels

open access: yesCommunications Biology
Insects have a powerful olfactory system that is far more selective and sensitive than artificial detectors. Insect odorant receptors (ORs) are key components of the system, which are ligand-gated ion channels comprising a specific odorant-sensing OR and

Cilia in Nervous System Development, Function, and Disease

open access: yesMedComm – Future Medicine, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Cilia are evolutionarily conserved organelles that function as essential sensory and motility platforms in the nervous system. This review outlines key cilia‐dependent signaling pathways and their roles in neural development and function. Furthermore, it highlights how ciliary dysfunction can lead to a variety of neurological disorders, known as ...

Implantable Brain–Machine Interface for Olfactory Neural Regulation in Bioelectronic Nose: A Review

open access: yesSensory Neuroscience, Volume 2, Issue 2, June 2026.
The olfactory Brain‐Machine Interface described in this paper bypasses damaged peripheral olfactory pathways by implanting stimulation electrodes in the olfactory bulb or higher‐order olfactory cortex, thereby forming a closed‐loop system that integrates signal acquisition, information decoding, and cortical integration.

Insights on the nutritional ecology of a nocturnal pollinating insect

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 1123-1141, June 2026.
Nutritional ecology examines the environmental effects on nutritional needs, food intake and foraging behaviors, and the use of nutrients ingested by animals. Among insects, Lepidoptera are often considered opportunistic foragers that visit a wide variety of available flowers, although with some preferences.

Psychosocial Factors Mediate the Relationship Between Olfactory Function and Cognitive Frailty in Older Adults: A Structural Equation Modelling

open access: yesAustralasian Journal on Ageing, Volume 45, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective With the trend of population ageing, cognitive frailty in older adults is an increasingly pressing public health issue. Identifying early‐stage risk factors has become a key priority for researchers with the goal of preventing disability.

GRKs and arrestins: Nomenclature and functions in GPCR‐dependent and ‐independent signalling

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 11, Page 2619-2633, June 2026.
G protein‐coupled receptor (GPCR) kinases (GRKs) and arrestins play a critical role in the regulation of GPCR signalling. Historic names of mammalian GRKs were replaced by systematic ones in the 1990s; however, both kinds of names are currently in use for mammalian arrestins.

Genome‐wide and gene‐specific DNA methylation across developmental stages in Pogonomyrmex californicus: A socially polymorphic ant

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 232-245, June 2026.
Comparison between developmental stages (larvae, pupae, worker) in Pogonomyrmex californicus revealed significant stage‐specific differences in Gene Body Methylated frequencies. Methylation sites were highly correlated between WGBS and ONT in P. californicus Genome‐wide methylation was low (~3%) and highly clustered within gene bodies (GBM), especially

Genome and transcriptome‐based identification and expression profiling of chemosensory gene families across developmental stages and tissues in Sirex noctilio (Hymenoptera: Siricidae)

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 270-283, June 2026.
The first draft genome of Sirex noctilio was produced. Fifteen S. noctilio transcriptomes were sequenced to study chemosensory gene expression patterns. SnocOR16 and SnocSNMP1 displayed tissue‐ and sex‐specific expression patterns. Abstract The Sirex woodwasp (Sirex noctilio; Hymenoptera: Siricidae) is among the most destructive invasive pests ...
