Unraveling chemosensory diversity
Most animals have the ability to detect, discriminate, and react to chemicals present in their external environment. These include water-soluble molecules, volatile odorants, and pheromones, molecules that are released from animals and elicit fixed behaviors and physiological responses in animals of the same species. In lower organisms, chemosensory stimuli elicit stereotyped responses. In mamm...
متن کاملEvolution of synapse complexity and diversity.
Proteomic studies of the composition of mammalian synapses have revealed a high degree of complexity. The postsynaptic and presynaptic terminals are molecular systems with highly organized protein networks producing emergent physiological and behavioral properties. The major classes of synapse proteins and their respective functions in intercellular communication and adaptive responses evolved ...
متن کاملUnraveling the human salivary microbiome diversity in Indian populations
The importance of studying the salivary microbiome has been highlighted for its connection to health and disease and as a potential tool for supplementing human genetic diversity studies. While the salivary microbiome has been studied in various world populations, Indian populations have not been examined. We therefore analyzed microbiome diversity in saliva samples from 92 volunteers from eigh...
متن کاملUnraveling the thread of nature's tapestry: the genetics of diversity and convergence in animal pigmentation.
Animals display incredibly diverse color patterns yet little is known about the underlying genetic basis of these phenotypes. However, emerging results are reshaping our view of how the process of phenotypic evolution occurs. Here, we outline recent research from three particularly active areas of investigation: melanin pigmentation in Drosophila, wing patterning in butterflies, and pigment var...

elements, which do not anastomose, and that nervous action is made by contacts ‘at the level of certain apparatuses or dispositions of engagement’. Camillo Golgi (1842–1926) maintained that he could identify intracellular neurofibrils in nerves with his silver technique and that these extended from one nerve bulb to the next providing a continuous anastomosis. Cajal and Golgi shared the Nobel P...
