The auditory periphery of Ormia ochracea does not allow for spatial release from masking.

Cells utilize a membrane-mediated mechanism for mechanosensation, which involves the disruption of lipid rafts and a signal relayed to an ion channel.

Despite lacking traditional ganglia or centralization, the Hydra nervous system computes sensorimotor responses via localized neuron ensembles.

The loading-induced temperature evolution phenomenon in the knee joint modulates chondrogenic cells response to loading and accordingly opens a new paradigm that is coined 'thermo-mechanobiology'.

Neural and network activity within a pontine-cortical micturition circuit are finely coordinated with urodynamics to assure appropriate voiding behaviors.

The coding sequences of a very highly conserved family of neurogenic transcription factors from different species have evolved to generate proteins that have different life times causing them to display quantitatively different neural induction potentials.

The innexin protein UNC-7, a homologue of vertebrate pannexins, plays a specific, gap junction-independent role in C. elegans mechanosensation.

A fully automated workflow for high-throughput mouse behavioral and optogenetic experiments in homecage reveals involvement of brain regions in tactile decision-making.

There are inherent tradeoffs in the control of cellular response variability by paracrine communication during the establishment of initial wound response signaling gradients.

Instead of repelling, Desmodium, a hallmark of pest suppressive sustainable intercropping, acts as a mechanical and developmental barrier to larvae, thereby truncating population development.
