Neuromodulation by peptides and amines is a primary source of plasticity in the nervous
system as it adapts the animal to an ever-changing environment. The crustacean …

Decapod crustaceans have long served as important models for the study of
neuroendocrine signaling. For example, the process of neurosecretion was first formally …

Co‐transmission is a common means of neuronal communication, but its consequences for
neuronal signaling within a defined neuronal circuit remain unknown in most systems. We …

Neural network flexibility includes changes in neuronal participation between networks,
such as the switching of neurons between single-and dual-network activity. We previously …

A ubiquitous feature of the nervous system is the processing of simultaneously arriving
sensory inputs from different modalities. Yet, because of the difficulties of monitoring large …

Neuronal release of modulatory substances provides motor pattern generating circuits with a
high degree of flexibility. In vitro studies have characterized the actions of modulatory …

Nitric oxide (NO) is a free radical gas involved in a variety of physiological processes in
invertebrates, such as neuromodulation, muscle contraction and host defense. Surprisingly …

Nitric oxide (NO) plays major roles during development and in adult organisms. We
examined the temporal and spatial patterns of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) appearance in …

This study provides evidence that activity-dependent synaptic enhancement at a
neuromuscular junction modifies the characteristics of force production of the receiving …
