From perception to valence: a pair of interneurons that assign positive valence to sweet sensation in <i>Drosophila</i> Open
Summary Assigning valence—appeal or aversion—to gustatory stimuli and relaying it to higher-order brain regions to guide flexible behaviors is crucial to survival. Yet the neural circuit that transforms gustatory input into motivationally …

A combined MRI, histological and immunohistochemical rendering of the rhesus macaque locus coeruleus (LC) enables the differentiation of three distinct LC subcompartments Open
Locus coeruleus (LC) neurons send their noradrenergic axons across multiple brain regions, including neocortex, subcortical regions, and spinal cord. Many aspects of cognition are known to be dependent on the noradrenergic system, and it h…

Tyramine and its Amtyr1 receptor modulate attention in honey bees (Apis mellifera) Open
Animals must learn to ignore stimuli that are irrelevant to survival and attend to ones that enhance survival. When a stimulus regularly fails to be associated with an important consequence, subsequent excitatory learning about that stimul…

Retrosplenial cortex microglia and perineuronal net densities are associated with memory impairment in aged rhesus macaques Open
Synapse loss and altered plasticity are significant contributors to memory loss in aged individuals. Microglia, the innate immune cells of the brain, play critical roles in maintaining synapse function, including through a recently identif…

Anti-RDL and Anti-mGlutR1 Receptors Antibody Testing in Honeybee Brain Sections using CRISPR-Cas9 Open
Cluster Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9) is a gene editing technique widely used in studies of gene function. We use this method in this study to check for the specificity of antib…

Experience-dependent tuning of early olfactory processing in the adult brain Open
Experience-dependent plasticity in the central nervous system allows an animal to adaptively change their responses to stimuli over different time scales. In this study we explored the different time frames and mechanisms over which olfact…

Experience-dependent tuning of early olfactory processing in the adult honey bee,<i>Apis mellifera</i> Open
Experience-dependent plasticity in the central nervous system allows an animal to adapt its responses to stimuli over different time scales. In this study we explored the impacts of adult foraging experience on early olfactory processing b…

The Biogenic Amine Tyramine and its Receptor (AmTyr1) in Olfactory Neuropils in the Honey Bee (Apis mellifera) Brain Open
This article describes the cellular sources for tyramine and the cellular targets of tyramine via the Tyramine Receptor 1 (AmTyr1) in the olfactory learning and memory neuropils of the honey bee brain. Clusters of approximately 160 tyramin…
