Two Insulin-like Peptides Antagonistically Regulate Aversive Olfactory Learning in C. elegans
The insulin/insulin-like peptides (ILPs) regulate key events in physiology, including neural plasticity. However, the cellular and circuit mechanisms whereby ILPs regulate learning remain largely unknown. Here, we characterize two ILPs that play antagonistic roles in aversive olfactory learning of C. elegans. We show that the ILP ins-6 acts from ASI sensory neurons to enable learning by repress...
متن کاملDBL-1, a TGF-β, is essential for Caenorhabditis elegans aversive olfactory learning.
The TGF-β superfamily is conserved throughout metazoan, and its members play essential roles in development and disease. TGF-β has also been implicated in adult neural plasticity. However, the underlying mechanisms are not well understood. Here we report that DBL-1, a Caenorhabditis elegans TGF-β homolog known to control body morphology and immunity, is essential for aversive olfactory learning...
متن کاملAversive olfactory learning and associative long-term memory in Caenorhabditis elegans.
The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) adult hermaphrodite has 302 invariant neurons and is suited for cellular and molecular studies on complex behaviors including learning and memory. Here, we have developed protocols for classical conditioning of worms with 1-propanol, as a conditioned stimulus (CS), and hydrochloride (HCl) (pH 4.0), as an unconditioned stimulus (US). Before the co...
متن کاملFunctional Organization of a Neural Network for Aversive Olfactory Learning in Caenorhabditis elegans
Many animals use their olfactory systems to learn to avoid dangers, but how neural circuits encode naive and learned olfactory preferences, and switch between those preferences, is poorly understood. Here, we map an olfactory network, from sensory input to motor output, which regulates the learned olfactory aversion of Caenorhabditis elegans for the smell of pathogenic bacteria. Naive animals p...
متن کاملOlfactory modulation by dopamine in the context of aversive learning.
The need to detect and process sensory cues varies in different behavioral contexts. Plasticity in sensory coding can be achieved by the context-specific release of neuromodulators in restricted brain areas. The context of aversion triggers the release of dopamine in the insect brain, yet the effects of dopamine on sensory coding are unknown. In this study, we characterize the morphology of dop...
