A hidden thermal mechanism in inhibitory ligand-gated chloride channels

This paper identifies a temperature-dependent gating mechanism in inhibitory ligand-gated chloride channels, showing how temperature affects channel function and drug efficacy.

Cellular identity and Ca2+ signaling activity of the non-reproductive GnRH system in the Ciona larva

The paper investigates the cellular identity and calcium signaling activity of gnrh2-expressing cells in Ciona larva, identifying their roles in motor control and neuroendocrine signaling in glia cells.

Mechanoreceptor-mediated circuit regulates cold tolerance in Caenorhabditis elegans

The paper shows that mechanoreceptor-mediated circuits in C. elegans regulate cold tolerance through temperature sensing via DEG-1 channels in specific neurons.
