Pheromone detection by a pheromone emitter: a small sex pheromone-specific processing system in the female American cockroachHiroshi Nishino
Research Institute for Electronic Science, Hokkaido University, Sapporo 060 0812, Japan
Chem Senses 36:261-70. 2011..Female B-PN activity was greatest in response to sex pheromone but lower than that in the male B-PN. This specific detection system suggests that sex pheromone affects the behavior and/or endocrine system of female cockroaches...- Divergent and convergent projections to the two parallel olfactory centers from two neighboring, pheromone-receptive glomeruli in the male American cockroachHiroshi Nishino
Research Institute for Electronic Science, Hokkaido University, Sapporo 060 0812, Japan
J Comp Neurol 520:3428-45. 2012..Stimulation of the ipsilateral antenna with various odors showed that the odor specificity of A-PN is higher than that of B-PN. The different developmental lineages of A- and B-PNs suggested by these results are discussed... - Visual and olfactory input segregation in the mushroom body calyces in a basal neopteran, the American cockroachHiroshi Nishino
Research Institute for Electronic Science, Hokkaido University, Sapporo 060 0812, Japan
Arthropod Struct Dev 41:3-16. 2012..These results suggest that there is general modality-specific terminal segregation in the MB calyces and that this is an early event in insect evolution. Possible postsynaptic and presynaptic elements of these neurons are discussed... - Functional and topographic segregation of glomeruli revealed by local staining of antennal sensory neurons in the honeybee Apis melliferaHiroshi Nishino
Research Institute for Electronic Science, Hokkaido University, Sapporo 060 0812, Japan
J Comp Neurol 515:161-80. 2009..These results suggest that some degree of somatotopic organization of sensory afferents exist in T1-3 glomeruli, and part of T4 glomeruli serve for processing of hygro- and thermosensory signals... - Postembryonic development of sexually dimorphic glomeruli and related interneurons in the cockroach Periplaneta americanaHiroshi Nishino
Research Institute for Electronic Science, Hokkaido University, Kita 12 Nishi 6, Sapporo 060 0812, Hokkaido, Japan
Neurosci Lett 469:60-4. 2010..Male-specific projections for sex pheromone detection may be formed by modification of pre-existing neural circuitry... - Different growth patterns of two adjacent glomeruli responsible for sex-pheromone processing during postembryonic development of the cockroach Periplaneta americanaHiroshi Nishino
Research Institute for Electronic Science, Hokkaido University, Sapporo 060 0812, Japan
Neurosci Lett 462:219-24. 2009..These results suggest perception of sex pheromone occurs in early instars, and that PA and PB have distinct roles in different developmental stages... 
Dual, multilayered somatosensory maps formed by antennal tactile and contact chemosensory afferents in an insect brainHiroshi Nishino
Research Institute for Electronic Science, Hokkaido University, Sapporo 060 0812, Japan
J Comp Neurol 493:291-308. 2005..These observations suggest that touch and taste positional information from the antenna is precisely represented in primary centers in a modality-specific manner...- Sensilla position on antennae influences afferent terminal location in glomeruliHiroshi Nishino
Research Institute for Electronic Science, Hokkaido University, Sapporo, Japan
Neuroreport 18:1765-9. 2007..These results revealed that the location of afferent terminals strongly reflects the three-dimensional position of their olfactory receptor neurons in pheromone-receptive glomeruli, but the relationship is weaker in other glomeruli... - Termination profiles of insect chemosensory afferents in the antennal lobe are dependent on their origin on the flagellumHiroshi Nishino
aResearch Institute for Electronic Science, Hokkaido University, Sapporo, Japan
Neuroreport 17:1303-7. 2006..This study demonstrates, for the first time, a correlation between the distribution of primary afferent terminals in the individual glomeruli, and their origin on the surface of the flagellum... - Effects of NO/cGMP signaling on behavioral changes in subordinate male crickets, Gryllus bimaculatusMasazumi Iwasaki
Research Institute for Electronic Science, Hokkaido University, Sapporo 060 0812, Japan
Zoolog Sci 24:860-8. 2007..Our results suggest that the change in agonistic behavior observed in subordinate male crickets is closely linked to NO-mediated cGMP signaling... - Projection neurons originating from thermo- and hygrosensory glomeruli in the antennal lobe of the cockroachHiroshi Nishino
Research Institute for Electronic Science, Hokkaido University, Sapporo 060 0812, Japan
J Comp Neurol 455:40-55. 2003..These findings suggested that dorsocentral PNs participate in neural pathways that lead to behavioral responses to temperature or humidity changes... - Motor output characterizing thanatosis in the cricket Gryllus bimaculatusHiroshi Nishino
Laboratory of Neurocybernetics, Research Institute for Electronic Science, Hokkaido University, Sapporo, 060 0812, Japan

Laboratory of Neuro Cybernetics, Research Institute for Electronic Science, Hokkaido University, Sapporo, Japan
Zoolog Sci 20:697-707. 2003..This suggests that the most proximal and distal parts of the flexor muscle participate synergistically in fine motor control while the rest participates in powerful drive of tibial flexion movement... - Participation of NO signaling in formation of long-term memory in salivary conditioning of the cockroachChihiro S Matsumoto
