Sense organs are specialized organs that help us to perceive the world around us. These organs function by transmitting impulses to the sensory nervous system.

All in all, then, it is clear that the lateral line system is a very complex and sensitive sense-organ. Or perhaps we should consider the lateral line as several different sense organs, for sensing motion, pressure, distance, etc. In any event, it can therefore truly be said that fish ...
Eight virus families whose members infect vertebrates are currently known to possess single-stranded, positive-sense RNA genomes: the families Picornaviridae, Caliciviridae and Hepeviridae have non-enveloped capsids, whereas the families Flaviviridae, To
There has been an increasing amount of interest on the accumulation of visceral adipose tissue (VAT), which is a form of body fat that surrounds various organs of the body. This interest has arisen since VAT is more metabolically active compared to other types of adipose tissue and is known...
13 I want to avoid notions such as ‘sensations’, ‘sense-data’, and ‘sensory’, since they too easily bring with them associations to the notion of sense organs; even dreams can contain qualia in my sense. I regard ‘quale’ as a primitive term that can appear in questions such as...
Conventionally, sensory systems are viewed as separate entities, each with its own physiological process serving a different purpose. However, many functions require integrative inputs from multiple sensory systems and sensory intersection and convergence occur throughout the central nervous system. The neu...
TLR7- and TLR9-dependent recognition of endogenous nucleic acids is also a feature of autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), a disease associated with autoantibodies to nucleosome and ribonucleoproteins, and immune complex deposition in several organs (Rahman and Isenberg, 2008)...
Our immune system functions as a collaborative network of cells, lymphoid organs, cytokines and humoral factors, to combat infections caused by pathogenic agents such as bacteria, parasites and viruses [1]. The first line of host defence consists of innate immunity, which is evolutionary conserved,...
