Conclusion Presynaptic inhibition is a widespread mechanism among invertebrates and its
study has developed quite independently from that which has occurred in vertebrates …

1. Exteroceptive hairs that are sensitive to water displacement and touch are distributed over
the surface of the tailfan of crayfish. We show that the sensory neurons innervating these …

Using an antiserum directed against γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) to label neurones with
GABA-like immunoreactivity, approximately 70 central neurones (68±9; mean±SEM, N= 9) …

Some central neurons in the crayfish have autofluorescent cell bodies. The yellow
fluorescence of cell bodies was induced in the whole‐mount preparation by using blue …

This investigation has used high speed and conventional video techniques to investigate the
tail flip escape behaviour of the brown shrimp Crangon crangon (L.) in the context of …

Pharmacological properties of excitatory synaptic transmission from mechanosensory
afferents to an identifiable nonspiking interneuron of crayfish were studied by drug perfusion …

The function of a neural network is dependent on more than the static patterns of
connections between neurons. For example, in response to time-varying stimuli in the …
