چکیده
The importance of sensory information for the guidance of animal behavior is reflected by a fascinating wealth of sensory organs. These exhibit an enormous variety due to different evolutionary potentials and needs of individual species. All sensory organs and their neuronal pathways have to be tuned to the reception and perception of the biologically relevant stimulus patterns as they occur in the habitats of different species. It is the invertebrate animals in particular, where one finds the most exotic sense organs and sensory capacities, some of them alien to us humans.

Clever-1/stabilin-1 controls cancer growth and metastasis.
PURPOSE Immunosuppressive leukocytes and vasculature are important host cell components regulating tumor progression. Clever-1/Stabilin-1, a multifunctional scavenger and adhesion receptor, is constitutively present on a subset of type II macrophages and lymphatic endothelium, but its functional role in cancer is unknown. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Here, we generated full Clever-1 knockout mice and ...
متن کاملElectroreception in monotremes
subject of special fascination ever since their first description was greeted by Western scientists with great scepticism (Home, 1802). Many thought that the platypus was a clever hoax perpetrated by careful attachment of a duck-bill and webbed feet to the skin of a mammal (Griffiths, 1998). Perhaps a greater mystery concerned the ability of a platypus to catch half its body mass of benthic inv...
متن کاملDetailed MATE-CLEVER Pipeline for GoNL
For deletion discovery, we ran the discovery part of MATE-CLEVER [3], with minor modifications that account for volatilities among library protocols. MATE-CLEVER is an integrated approach. Its major purpose in the frame of the project is to discover deletions of size 30–100 bp (sometimes termed the ”twilight zone of NGS indels”). It incorporates CLEVER [2], as an internal segment size based app...
متن کاملPlenary paper CLEVER-1 mediates lymphocyte transmigration through vascular and lymphatic endothelium
Common lymphatic endothelial and vascular endothelial receptor-1 (CLEVER-1; also known as stabilin-1 or FEEL-1) is a large multifunctional glycoprotein implicated in scavenging, angiogenesis, and cell adhesion. Here we studied the function of human CLEVER-1 in leukocyte trafficking. Lymphatic vessels expressed CLEVER-1 constitutively in skin in vivo, whereas on vascular endothelium it appeared ...
