Evolution has preserved many molecular pathways, establishing invertebrates as versatile models for exploring the fundamental and universal processes of CNS physiology and pathology. Among them, the pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis serves as an effective model organism for Translational Neuroscience due to its relatively simple CNS and open circulatory system, simplifying the exploration of the complexity of conserved molecular pathways and allowing to investigate how drugs can modulate neuronal functions and behaviors. In this study, we discovered that, despite never encountering natural predator
