Article Synopsis
- C. elegans uses a simple neural circuit to avoid harmful stimuli like octanol, and this behavior is influenced by dopamine levels.
- cat-2 mutants, which lack dopamine, show slowed responses to octanol, but this can be corrected with external dopamine.
- The study highlights that NMR-1 NMDA receptors are crucial for dopamine's role in modulating the avoidance response, unlike AMPA/kainate receptors which can be bypassed with dopamine.
