Abstract: The glassy-winged sharpshooter (GWSS), Homalodisca vitripennis, is an important vector of Xylella fastidiosa, the causal agent of Pierce’s disease of grapevine. GWSS control relies mainly on insecticides; therefore, an alternative method, such as vibrational mating… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neures.2022.04.002
Abstract: Male sexual activity reduces the level of depression through oxytocin (OT) release within the brain. In this study, we showed that male mating behavior reduces depression-like behavior through OT-induced cAMP response element binding protein (CREB)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.pbb.2020.173040
Abstract: Female sexual dysfunction is both a symptom of depression and exacerbated by treatments for depression. Ketamine, a novel treatment for depression, has been shown to enhance, whereas fluoxetine has been shown to impair sexual motivation.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.abf8404
Abstract: Differences in mating behavior of gametes can emerge in an isogamous microorganism solely due to asymmetries in signaling. Anisogamy, the size difference between small male and large female gametes, is known to enable selection for… read more here.

DOI: 10.24272/j.issn.2095-8137.2022.167
Abstract: Stearyl coenzyme A desaturase (SCD), also known as delta-9 desaturase, catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the formation of monounsaturated fatty acids. In mammals, depletion or inhibition of SCD activity generally leads to a decrease in… read more here.
