Yatsuk A, Nartshuk E, Bushuev A, Kerimov A, Van Linh N, Tolstenkov O, et al.
Int J Parasitol Parasites Wildl . 2024 Dec; 25:101026. PMID: 39697783
The family Hippoboscidae, commonly known as "louse flies," comprises pupiparous Diptera that are ectoparasites of birds and mammals, with significant impacts on their hosts and epidemiological importance. The louse fly...

Tolstenkov O, Chatzigeorgiou M, Gorbushin A
Commun Biol . 2023 Dec; 6(1):1279. PMID: 38110640
Trematodes, or flukes, undergo intricate anatomical and behavioral transformations during their life cycle, yet the functional changes in their nervous system remain poorly understood. We investigated the molecular basis of...

Tolstenkov O, Mikhaleva Y, Glover J
Curr Biol . 2023 Aug; 33(18):3872-3883.e6. PMID: 37643617
To gain insight into the evolution of motor control systems at the origin of vertebrates, we have investigated higher-order motor circuitry in the protochordate Oikopleura dioica. We have identified a...

Tolstenkov O, Mikhaleva Y, Glover J
Dev Biol . 2022 Sep; 492:37-46. PMID: 36162551
We recently described calcium signaling in the appendicularian tunicate Oikopleura dioica during pre-gastrulation stages, and showed that regularly occurring calcium waves progress throughout the embryo in a characteristic spatiotemporal pattern...

Bushuev A, Zubkova E, Tolstenkov O, Kerimov A
J Exp Zool A Ecol Integr Physiol . 2021 Aug; 335(8):668-677. PMID: 34358408
Tropical birds live longer, have smaller clutches and invest more resources into self-maintenance than temperate species. These "slow" life-histories in tropical birds are accompanied by low basal metabolic rate (BMR)....

Madrid R, Sychra O, Benedick S, Edwards D, Efeykin B, Fandrem M, et al.
Int J Parasitol Parasites Wildl . 2020 Dec; 13:231-247. PMID: 33294362
The tropical rainforests of Sundaland are a global biodiversity hotspot increasingly threatened by human activities. While parasitic insects are an important component of the ecosystem, their diversity and parasite-host relations...

Serobyan V, Kontarakis Z, El-Brolosy M, Welker J, Tolstenkov O, Saadeldein A, et al.
Elife . 2020 Jan; 9. PMID: 31951195
Transcriptional adaptation is a recently described phenomenon by which a mutation in one gene leads to the transcriptional modulation of related genes, termed adapting genes. At the molecular level, it...

Dev Biol . 2019 Mar; 450(1):9-22. PMID: 30905687
We characterized spontaneous Ca2+ signals in Oikopleura dioica embryos from pre-fertilization to gastrula stages following injection of GCaMP6 mRNA into unfertilized eggs. The unfertilized egg exhibited regular, transient elevations in...

Oranth A, Schultheis C, Tolstenkov O, Erbguth K, Nagpal J, Hain D, et al.
Neuron . 2018 Nov; 100(6):1414-1428.e10. PMID: 30392795
Finding food and remaining at a food source are crucial survival strategies. We show how neural circuits and signaling molecules regulate these food-related behaviors in Caenorhabditis elegans. In the absence...

Tolstenkov O, Van der Auwera P, Costa W, Bazhanova O, Gemeinhardt T, Bergs A, et al.
Elife . 2018 Sep; 7. PMID: 30204083
Locomotion circuits developed in simple animals, and circuit motifs further evolved in higher animals. To understand locomotion circuit motifs, they must be characterized in many models. The nematode possesses one...
