In silico identification and deorphanisation of an allatostatin C GPCR system in the cephalopod Octopus vulgaris reveals two receptors with distinct potency

This paper identifies and characterizes an allatostatin C GPCR system in Octopus vulgaris, revealing two receptors with distinct potency in response to the same peptide.

Identification and functional investigation of Octopus vulgaris TRPV channels as potential nociceptors in cephalopods

This study identifies and functionally validates TRPV channels in Octopus vulgaris as polymodal nociceptors using in silico analysis and heterologous expression in model organisms.

Identification of molecular nociceptors in Octopus vulgaris through functional characterisation in Caenorhabditis elegans

The paper identifies 51 potential nociceptive genes in Octopus vulgaris using a bioinformatic pipeline and validates 18 in C. elegans through loss-of-function experiments.

From injury to full repair: nerve regeneration and functional recovery in the common octopus, Octopus vulgaris

The paper investigates nerve regeneration and functional recovery in the common octopus after pallial nerve transection, showing full recovery without behavioral impact.
