Microbes as part of ancestral neuronal circuits: Bacterial produced signals affect neurons controlling eating behavior in Hydra

C. Giez, D. Pinkle, Y. Giencke, J. Wittlieb, E. Herbst, T. Spratte, T. Lachnit, A. Klimovich, C. Selhuber-Unkel, T. C. G. Bosch

This study shows that microbes influence neuronal circuits controlling eating behavior in Hydra by affecting mouth opening, with glutamate playing a role in interkingdom communication.
