Coral Feeding Behavior on Microplastics
Microplastics travel along food chain, bio-accumulates in organisms, and interferes with natural feeding habits of marine organisms, yet effect of...

Recruitment of hippocampal and thalamic pathways to the central amygdala in the control of feeding behavior under novelty
It is adaptive to restrict eating under uncertainty, such as during habituation to novel foods and unfamiliar environments. However, sustained...

AgRP neurons encode circadian feeding time
Food intake follows a predictable daily pattern and synchronizes metabolic rhythms. Neurons expressing agouti-related protein (AgRP) read out...

Assessment of Tribo-charging and Continuous Feeding Performance of Direct Compression Grades of Isomalt and Mannitol Powders
Tribo-charging is often a root cause of mass flow deviations and powder adhesion during continuous feeding. Thus, it may critically impact product...

A computational neural model that incorporates both intrinsic dynamics and sensory feedback in the Aplysia feeding network
Studying the nervous system underlying animal motor control can shed light on how animals can adapt flexibly to a changing environment. We focus on...

Relationships between feeding behaviors and emotions: an electroencephalogram (EEG) frequency analysis study
Feeding behaviors may be easily affected by emotions, both being based on brain activity; however, the relationships between them have not been...

Unravelling the mosquito-haemosporidian parasite-bird host network in the southwestern Iberian Peninsula: insights into malaria infections, mosquito community and feeding preferences
BakgroundVector-borne diseases affecting humans, wildlife and livestock have significantly increased their incidence and distribution in the last...

Next-generation neuropeptide Y receptor small-molecule agonists inhibit mosquito-biting behavior
BackgroundFemale Aedes aegypti mosquitoes can spread disease-causing pathogens when they bite humans to obtain blood nutrients required for egg...
-
The species and abundance of gut bacteria both positively impact Phortica okadai behavior
BackgroundGut bacteria, which serve as essential modulators, exert a significant impact on insect physiology and behavior and have substantial...

Animal Behavior: An Introduction
Different life forms exhibit differences in their behavior ranging from the feeding, mating, locomotion, singing, social behavior. While factors...

Sex differences and sex-specific regulation of motivated behavior by Melanin-concentrating hormone: a short review
Recent preclinical research exploring how neuropeptide transmitter systems regulate motivated behavior reveal the increasing importance of sex as a...

High-fat diet feeding triggers a regenerative response in the adult zebrafish brain
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) includes a range of liver conditions ranging from excess fat accumulation to liver failure. NAFLD is...

Temperature, mosquito feeding status and mosquito density influence the measured bio-efficacy of insecticide-treated nets in cone assays
BackgroundThe WHO cone bioassay is routinely used to evaluate the bioefficacy of insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) for product pre-qualification and...

Fluralaner (Bravecto®) treatment kills Aedes aegypti after feeding on Dirofilaria immitis-infected dogs
BackgroundTransmission of canine heartworm ( Dirofilaria immitis ) from infected to naïve dogs is dependent on successful mosquito feeding and...

Potential regulatory role of PGC-1α within the skeletal muscle during metabolic adaptations in response to high-fat diet feeding in animal models
High-fat diet (HFD) feeding in rodents has become an essential tool to critically analyze and study the pathological effects of obesity, including...

Bloodmeal sources and feeding behavior of anopheline mosquitoes in Bure district, northwestern Ethiopia
BackgroundMosquito bloodmeal sources determine the feeding rates, adult survival, fecundity, hatching rates, and developmental times. Only the female

Blood feeding habits of mosquitoes: hardly a bite in South America
Mosquito blood feeding plays a key role in epidemiology. Despite its importance and large number of studies worldwide, less attention has been paid...

Neuropeptide Y receptor Y8b (npy8br) regulates feeding and digestion in Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes) larvae: evidence from gene knockout
Neuropeptide Y receptor Y8 (NPY8R) is a fish-specific receptor with two subtypes, NPY8AR and NPY8BR. Changes in expression levels during...
