Colocalisation of insulin and IGF‐1 receptors in cultured rat sensory and sympathetic ganglion cells [PDF]

Journal of Anatomy, 1997
Peripheral sensory and autonomic neurons are known to possess insulin receptors. These have been considered to be of the peripheral type, i.e. similar to those of hepatic and fat cells rather than of the brain type which show dual specificity for both insulin and insulin‐like growth factor (IGF‐1). We have examined the localisation of insulin and IGF‐1

Exploring developmental, functional, and evolutionary aspects of amphioxus sensory cells

International Journal of Biological Sciences, 2006
Amphioxus has neither elaborated brains nor definitive sensory organs, so that the two may have evolved in a mutually affecting manner and given rise to the forms seen in extant vertebrates.

Baicalin Depresses the Sympathoexcitatory Reflex Induced by Myocardial Ischemia via the Dorsal Root Ganglia

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
Myocardial ischemia (MI) is one of the major causes of death in cardiac diseases. Purinergic signaling is involved in bidirectional neuronal-glial communication in the primary sensory ganglia.

Advances in cell-based biosensors: Transforming food flavor evaluation with novel approaches

Food Chemistry: X
Food flavor, a blend of taste and smell, is key to consumer acceptance and food quality. Traditional sensory and instrumental methods often fail to replicate human sensory responses.

Morphological evaluation of Merkel cells and small lamellated sensory receptors in the equine foot

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 2017
Abstract OBJECTIVE To examine the equine foot for the presence of sensory receptors including Merkel cells and small lamellated Pacinian-like corpuscles (SLPCs). SAMPLE Forefeet obtained from 7 horses following euthanasia for reasons other than foot disease.

Histological characterization of the olfactory organ in schilbid catfish, Clupisoma garua (Hamilton, 1822)

International Journal of Aquatic Biology, 2018
Fishes have a good sense of smell and are able to ascertain odour with the help of a pair of olfactory organs connected to the olfactory lobes of the forebrain by means of olfactory tracts.

Receptor tyrosine phosphatase CLR-1 acts in skin cells to promote sensory dendrite outgrowth

Developmental Biology, 2016
Sensory dendrite morphogenesis is directed by intrinsic and extrinsic factors. The extracellular environment plays instructive roles in patterning dendrite growth and branching. However, the molecular mechanism is not well understood. In Caenorhabditis elegans, the proprioceptive neuron PVD forms highly branched sensory dendrites adjacent to the ...

Stimulus dependent diversity and stereotypy in the output of an olfactory functional unit

Nature Communications, 2018
Mitral/tufted (MT) cells connect to a single glomerulus and receive inputs from sensory neurons expressing the same odorant receptor. Here the authors report that sister MT cells connected to the M72 glomerulus exhibit variable responses to most M72 ...

AAVR Expression is Essential for AAV Vector Transduction in Sensory Hair Cells

Advanced Science
Adeno‐associated virus (AAV) vectors are a leading platform for gene therapy. Recently, AAV‐mediated gene therapy in the inner ear has progressed from laboratory use to clinical trials, but the lower transduction rates in outer hair cells (OHCs) in the ...

Ultrastructural and developmental anatomy of the peripheral olfactory organs of Dicentrarchus labrax inhabiting Egyptian Mediterranean water

Open Veterinary Journal
Background: Olfaction regulates animal behavior; hence its organs are seen early in fish development. Due to their aquatic lifestyle, fish employ olfaction to communicate chemical signals during gustation.
