Beyond studies on moths and Drosophila, we report in Table 1 some representative studies that have examined patterns of speciation based on chemosensory traits in various species. We have selected ...

The chemosensory systems recognize odorants, pheromones, and taste substances in the external environment and play a crucial role in various behaviors in most organisms. In this study, we elucidated a ...

The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which is the virus responsible for the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), has been found to cause olfactory dysfunction (OD) in ...

This visual abstract depicts the discovery that chemosensory receptors in a subset of mammalian olfactory sensing neurons are structurally distinct from GPCRs, and multiple subtypes are expressed ...

Chemosensory dysfunction is prevalent in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). However, the prevalence of smell loss or anosmia varies significantly between populations; some studies reported it ...

In particular, recent findings have shed light on the diversity of specialised chemosensory subsystems that mediate innate behavioural and physiological responses to pheromones. My group's research is ...

When investigating how sensory neurons in the vomeronasal organ (the organ responsible for detecting chemosensory signals such as pheromones) were stimulated by ESP1, they found that an ...

There are a lot of unknowns when it comes to understanding how the mammalian respiratory tract responds to allergens, but a study published today (January 17) in Science Immunology, offers new insight ...

Vistagen (Nasdaq: VTGN), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company pioneering neuroscience with nose-to-brain neurocircuitry to develop and commercialize a new class of intranasal product candidates ...

This is the finding of a study led by Nelly Jacob of the Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital APHP in France, published in Springer’s journal Chemosensory Perception. It is already known that smoking ...

Studies using functional MRI map chemosensory brain activity in the brainstem, a control center for instinctual behaviors like sleeping, eating and the fight-and-flight response. (In contrast ...
