The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is a powerful experimental setting for uncovering
fundamental tenets of nervous system organization and function. Its nearly invariant and …

Purpose This meta-analysis was to critically evaluate the effects of aromatherapy on the
symptoms of anxiety and depression in cancer patients. Methods Eight Chinese and English …

KCNQs are voltage-gated K+ channels that control neuronal excitability and are mutated in
epilepsy and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). KCNQs have been extensively studied in …

Phasic (fast) and tonic (sustained) inhibition of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) are fundamental
for regulating day-to-day activities, neuronal excitability, and plasticity. However, the …

Insects detect volatile chemicals using antennae, which house a vast variety of olfactory
sensory neurons (OSNs) that innervate hair-like structures called sensilla where odor …

In touch receptors, glia and accessory cells play a key role in mechanosensation. However,
the mechanisms underlying such regulation are poorly understood. We show, for the first …

Glia interact with multiple neurons, but it is unclear whether their interactions with each
neuron are different. Our interrogation at single-cell resolution reveals that a single glial cell …

Sensory neurons contain morphologically diverse primary cilia that are built by intraflagellar
transport (IFT) and house sensory signaling molecules. Since both ciliary structural and …

Mapping neurotransmitter identities to neurons is key to understanding information flow in a
nervous system. It also provides valuable entry points for studying the development and …

Behavioral plasticity allows animals to modulate their behavior based on experience and
environmental conditions. Caenorhabditis elegans exhibits experience-dependent changes …
