The physiological role of TRP channels in sleep and circadian rhythm. [PDF]
Abstract TRP channels, are non‐specific cationic channels that are involved in multiple physiological processes that include salivation, cellular secretions, memory extinction and consolidation, temperature, pain, store‐operated calcium entry, thermosensation and functionality of the nervous system.

Altered thermal preference by preoptic estrogen receptor alpha neurons in postpartum females [PDF]
Objective: This study aims to investigate how reproductive experience (RE) alters thermal preference and thermoregulation in female mice, with a focus on estrogen receptor alpha (ERα)-expressing neurons in the preoptic area (POA).

MPK4-mediated phosphorylation of PHYTOCHROME INTERACTING FACTOR4 controls thermosensing by regulating histone variant H2A.Z deposition. [PDF]
Plants can perceive a slight upsurge in ambient temperature and respond by undergoing morphological changes, such as elongated hypocotyls and early flowering.

Accurate prediction of thermoresponsive phase behavior of disordered proteins. [PDF]
Abstract Under heat stress, proteins have been shown to organize into biomolecular condensates in living cells. Recent experiments suggest that this response may be encoded in the chemical makeup of proteins. In particular, specific sequences undergo phase separation at elevated temperatures, exhibiting lower critical solution temperatures (LCST ...

Meningitis pathogens evade immune responses by thermosensing [PDF]
Bacterial meningitis is a major cause of death and disability in children worldwide. Two human restricted pathogens, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae, are the major causative agents of bacterial meningitis, attributing to 200,000 ...

How Rice Responds to Temperature Changes and Defeats Heat Stress [PDF]
With the intensification of the greenhouse effect, a series of natural phenomena, such as global warming, are gradually recognized; when the ambient temperature increases to the extent that it causes heat stress in plants, agricultural production will ...

Sex difference in thermal preference of adult mice does not depend on presence of the gonads [PDF]
Background The thermoneutral zone (TNZ) is a species-specific range of ambient temperature (T a), at which mammals can maintain a constant body temperature with the lowest metabolic rate. The TNZ for an adult mouse is between 26 and 34 °C. Interestingly,

G protein-coupled receptor-based thermosensation determines temperature acclimatization of Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]
Animals must sense and acclimatize to environmental temperatures for survival, yet their thermosensing mechanisms other than transient receptor potential (TRP) channels remain poorly understood.

Requirement of ClpX for CtsR dissociation from its operator elements upon heat stress in Bacillus subtilis [PDF]
A sudden increase in temperature triggers Bacillus subtilis to activate expression of stress-specific heat shock proteins of the CtsR (class three stress gene repressor) regulon to withstand the adverse conditions.
