Central Nervous System, Hormonal Regulation and Sensory Control of Schooling Behavior of Fish
AbstractData on the role of brain regions (forebrain, midbrain and other structures) in the control of schooling behavior of fish has been...

Mapping of individual sensory nerve axons from digits to spinal cord with the transparent embedding solvent system
Achieving uniform optical resolution for a large tissue sample is a major challenge for deep imaging. For conventional tissue clearing methods, loss...

Physiology of Sensory Perception
Sensory evaluation of food includes the critical examination and interpretation of important sensory attributes of a given product. The sensory...

Evolution of left–right asymmetry in the sensory system and foraging behavior during adaptation to food-sparse cave environments
BackgroundLaterality in relation to behavior and sensory systems is found commonly in a variety of animal taxa. Despite the advantages conferred by...

The metabolic and functional roles of sensory nerves in adipose tissues
Homeostatic regulation of adipose tissue is critical for the maintenance of energy balance and whole-body metabolism. The peripheral nervous system...

The Sensory World of Fish
In school, you probably learned that humans have five senses. These are the sense of sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch. There are also a...

History of Sensory Analysis
Humans have used their senses to evaluate food for several thousands of years. Given that so many phytotoxins and bacterial metabolites are bitter,...

Sensory perception relies on fitness-maximizing codes
Sensory information encoded by humans and other organisms is generally presumed to be as accurate as their biological limitations allow. However,...

Quantifying the effects of sensory stress on trophic cascades
Predators mediate the strength of trophic cascades indirectly by decreasing the number of prey consuming a basal resource and by altering prey...

Sensory cells and the organization of the peripheral nervous system of the siboglinid Oligobrachia haakonmosbiensis Smirnov, 2000
BackgroundThe nervous system of siboglinids has been studied mainly in Osedax and some Vestimentifera, while data in Frenulata – one of the four...

Anterior cingulate cross-hemispheric inhibition via the claustrum resolves painful sensory conflict
The anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) responds to noxious and innocuous sensory inputs, and integrates them to coordinate appropriate behavioral...

Sensory quality and nutritional composition of carrot (Daucus carota L.) genotypes as affected by fertilization in production system in Cameroon
BackgroundRecommendations for fertilizer use in agriculture do not take into account the growing region and the source of the organic matter. In...

Pregnancy-related sensory deficits might impair foraging in echolocating bats
BackgroundReproduction entails substantial demands throughout its distinct stages. The mammalian gestation period imposes various energetic costs and...

Disentangling sensory precision and prior expectation of change in autism during tactile discrimination
Predictive coding theories suggest that core symptoms in autism spectrum disorders (ASD) may stem from atypical mechanisms of perceptual inference...

Arousal state transitions occlude sensory-evoked neurovascular coupling in neonatal mice
In the adult sensory cortex, increases in neural activity elicited by sensory stimulation usually drive vasodilation mediated by neurovascular...

How to differentiate induced pluripotent stem cells into sensory neurons for disease modelling: a functional assessment
BackgroundHuman induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived peripheral sensory neurons present a valuable tool to model human diseases and are a...

Sensory Gating in TAAR1 Knockout Mice
AbstractTrace amines (TA) are a family of endogenous compounds structurally similar to classical biogenic amines that may be involved in...

An island apart: Cranial endocast variation and sensory function in Tenrecomorpha
It has long been recognized that, among extant mammals, the afrotherian clade Tenrecomorpha contains an exceptional range of sensory specialists in...

The oral sensory organs in Bathochordaeus stygius (Tunicata Appendicularia) are unique in structure and homologous to the coronal organ
BackgroundAppendicularia consists of approximately 70 purely marine species that belong to Tunicata the probable sister taxon to Craniota. Therefore,...
