Aversive Odor Reduces Tyrosine Decarboxylase Expression in Blowfly Olfactory Neurons

This study investigates how an aversive odor affects the expression of the tyrosine decarboxylase gene in the olfactory receptor neurons of the blowfly, Phormia regina. Understanding the mechanisms by which negative stimuli can influence gene expression in sensory neurons may provide insights into the neurobiological processes associated with appetite regulation. The research was conducted by Yuko Ishida and Mamiko Ozaki at the Department of Biology, Kobe University, Japan.
