The Cellular Code for Mammalian Thermosensation [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 2013 Mammalian somatosenory neurons respond to thermal stimuli and allow animals to reliably discriminate hot from cold and to select their preferred environments. Previously, we generated mice that are completely insensitive to temperatures from noxious cold to painful heat (−5 to 55°C) by ablating several different classes of nociceptor early in ...

Injury Threshold of Oral Contact with Hot Foods and Method for Its Sensory Evaluation
Safety, 2018 Epidemiological studies indicate an increased risk of esophageal cancer from the consumption of very hot foods and beverages. The contact time and the contact temperature are decisive for the risk of injury.

RpoE fine tunes expression of a subset of SsrB-regulated virulence factors in serovar Typhimurium [PDF]
, 2009 Background The survival of Salmonella enterica within the intracellular host niche requires highly co-ordinated expression of virulence effectors predominantly regulated by the SsrAB two-component regulatory system. S.

TREKing noxious thermosensation [PDF]
The EMBO Journal, 2009 The ability to sense environmental temperature as pleasant or unpleasant is associated with the activity of thermo‐sensitive neurons in the peripheral nervous system. Differential sensation of pleasant environmental temperatures (warm and cool) versus unpleasant and noxious (cold and hot) temperatures requires the definition of thresholds and ...

Shade delays flowering in Medicago sativa [PDF]
, 2019 Shade intolerant plants respond to the decrease in the red (R) to far-red light (FR) ratio (R:FR) occurring under shade by elongating stems and petioles and re-positioning leaves, in a race to out-compete neighbors for the sunlight resource.

Temperature Sensing in Plants: On the Dawn of Molecular Thermosensor Research [PDF]
, 2022 text学術雑誌論文 / Journal ArticleAlthough many studies on plant growth and development focus on the effects of light, a growing number of studies dissect plant responses to temperature and the underlying signaling pathways. The identity of plant thermosensing

Thermosensation: Some like it hot [PDF]
Current Biology, 1995 The ability of organisms to respond to fluctuating temperatures is ubiquitous but poorly understood. Recent studies of nematodes reveal specific sensory neurons and interneurons that mediate thermotaxis.

Molecular Processes in Biological Thermosensation [PDF]
Journal of Biophysics, 2008 Since thermal gradients are almost everywhere, thermosensation could represent one of the oldest sensory transduction processes that evolved in organisms. There are many examples of temperature changes affecting the physiology of living cells. Almost all classes of biological macromolecules in a cell (nucleic acids, lipids, proteins) can present a ...
