For example, sensory cells in the skin respond to ... a sequence of molecular switches to internal signaling pathways. Membrane receptors fall into three major classes: G-protein-coupled receptors ...

"This means that when the proteins are released, they are carried to the trigeminal ganglion via the said signaling pathways, where they bind to a receptor of a pain-signaling sensory nerve ...

Interoception research reveals how gut-brain communication via neural, hormonal, and microbial pathways regulates metabolism, ...

Researchers at the University of Copenhagen have identified a signaling pathway that simultaneously increased energy expenditure and decreased food intake. In both human and primate studies, agonists ...

In somatic sensory neurons ... neurotrophins and GFLs activate common intracellular signalling pathways through their receptor tyrosine kinases, several clear differences exist between these ...

Bats adapt to hearing loss using innate brain circuits, residual hearing, and other sensory pathways. They adjust ...

New research has shown that some neurons that do not express leptin receptors are still sensitive to its activity.

Researchers from the lab of Richard Simerly have uncovered the first example of activity-dependent development of ...

Researchers from the lab of Richard Simerly have uncovered the first example of activity-dependent development of hypothalamic neural circuitry. The work also suggests a novel role for the hunger ...
