Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Ablation (using hidUAS.cUa and rprUAS.cUa) of Scer\GAL4Trh.PB cells significantly reduces aversive (salt), olfactory memory in larvae, compared to controls, with no effect on naive preference for olfactory or gustatory stimuli.

Acute inhibition (using shi1.UAS at 35[o]C) of Scer\GAL4Trh.PB cells in larvae during training and testing does not affect aversive (salt) olfactory memory or naive preference for olfactory or gustatory stimuli, compared to controls.

Thermogenetic activation (using TrpA1UAS.(B).cKa at 31-33[o]C) of Scer\GAL4Trh.PB cells in adults in a particular position within a chamber results in a significant increase in associative aversive (heat) place memory, compared to controls; increased memory is also seen, to a significantly reduced extent, when activation (at 32[o]C) is restricted to a smaller subset of Scer\GAL4Trh.PB cells using Scer\GAL80SerT.Si6.

Preactivation (using TrpA1UAS.(B).cKa at 32[o]C, or Rnor\Trpm8UAS.EGFP at 15[o]C, before training) of Scer\GAL4Trh.PB cells significantly increases latency of escape from heat and associative aversive (heat) place memory, compared to controls.

Inhibition (using Ctet\tetXTNT.UAS) of Scer\GAL4Trh.PB cells does not affect latency of escape from heat or associative aversive (heat) place memory, compared to controls; the increases in escape latency and aversive memory due to unexpected high (41[o]C) temperature pre-exposure are significantly lower than those of controls.

Inhibition (using shi1.UAS at 32[o]C) of Scer\GAL4Trh.PB cells in adults does not affect 5 min (single-trial conditioned) aversive taste memory, compared to controls.

Inhibition (using Hsap\KCNJ2UAS.EGFP) of Scer\GAL4Trh.PB cells, in combination with a Gal80[ts] transgene to restrict expression to the adult stage, significantly increases aversive shock, but not temperature, olfactory memory, compared to controls, with no effect on temperature avoidance.

Ablation (using hidUAS.cUa and rprUAS.cUa) of Scer\GAL4Trh.PB cells in larvae does not significantly affect naive preferences for odors, darkness, salt, or low sugar concentrations, but significantly reduces preference for higher concentrations (2M) of fructose, compared to controls; there is no effect on appetitive or aversive olfactory memory, compared to controls.
