Evolution, discovery, and interpretations of arthropod mushroom bodies
Mushroom bodies are prominent neuropils found in annelids and in all arthropod groups
except crustaceans. First explicitly identified in 1850, the mushroom bodies differ in size and …

What do the mushroom bodies do for the insect brain? An introduction
M Heisenberg - Learning & memory, 1998 - learnmem.cshlp.org
Despite public claims to the contrary, our functional understanding of the brain is still
rudimentary. Starting with FJ Gall's Phrenology of the late eighteenth century, one of the …

Mosaic analysis with a repressible cell marker for studies of gene function in neuronal morphogenesis
T Lee, L Luo - Neuron, 1999 - cell.com
We describe a genetic mosaic system in Drosophila, in which a dominant repressor of a cell
marker is placed in trans to a mutant gene of interest. Mitotic recombination events between …

Leptin activates anorexigenic POMC neurons through a neural network in the arcuate nucleus
The administration of leptin to leptin-deficient humans, and the analogous Lep ob/Lep ob

An optimized acetylcholine sensor for monitoring in vivo cholinergic activity
The ability to directly measure acetylcholine (ACh) release is an essential step toward
understanding its physiological function. Here we optimized the GRABACh (GPCR …

Conditional modification of behavior in Drosophila by targeted expression of a temperature‐sensitive shibire allele in defined neurons
T Kitamoto - Journal of neurobiology, 2001 - Wiley Online Library
Behavior is a manifestation of temporally and spatially defined neuronal activities. To
understand how behavior is controlled by the nervous system, it is important to identify the …

The Drosophila mushroom body is a quadruple structure of clonal units each of which contains a virtually identical set of neurones and glial cells
The mushroom body (MB) is an important centre for higher order sensory integration and
learning in insects. To analyse the development and organisation of the MB neuropile in …
