Contents

It is currently unknown how some animals maintain such precise temperature sensation. Ramot
et al
. report that the thermosensory neurons in
C. elegans
utilize cGMP-dependent signaling machinery to alter ionic current responses and maintain a dynamic range of sensitivity.
Humans and other animals can sense temperature changes as smal...
