Molecular Processes in Biological Thermosensation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

TRPV3 in skin thermosensation and temperature responses. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Physiol Sci
Human skin, as a sophisticated sensory organ, is able to detect subtle changes in ambient temperature. This thermosensory capability is primarily mediated by temperature-sensitive TRP channels expressed in both sensory neurons and keratinocytes. Among these, TRPV3, which responds to warm temperatures and plays a crucial role in various skin functions ...

Dynamic evolution of transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV) ion channel family with numerous gene duplications and losses

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
The transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV) ion channel family is involved in multiple sensory and physiological functions including thermosensing and temperature-dependent neuroendocrine regulation.

Novel functions and regulation of cryptic cellobiose operons in Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Presence of cellobiose as a sole carbon source induces mutations in the chb and asc operons of Escherichia coli and allows it to grow on cellobiose. We previously engineered these two operons with synthetic constitutive promoters and achieved efficient ...

The Cellular Code for Mammalian Thermosensation [PDF]

open access: yesThe 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 ...

Shade delays flowering in Medicago sativa [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Cells and circuits for thermosensation in mammals [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroscience Letters, 2019
How is temperature detected and how is the resulting sensory information synthesized to produce appropriate thermosensory responses? Research in the last few years has gone a long way to answering the first part of this question. Excitingly, recent research has uncovered some of the ways sensory inputs are processed spinally, as well as identifying ...

Technologies for the automated collection of heat stress data in sheep

open access: yesAnimal Biotelemetry, 2021
The automated collection of phenotypic measurements in livestock is becoming increasingly important to both researchers and farmers. The capacity to non-invasively collect real-time data, provides the opportunity to better understand livestock behaviour ...
