Mitochondrially Transcribed DsRNA Mediates Manganese-Induced Neuroinflammation
Manganese is an essential trace element required for various biological functions but in excess is neurotoxic and leads to significant health concerns. The mechanisms underlying manganese neurotoxicit...
Pronounced Neuroplasticity in the Primary Visual Cortex of the 13-Lined Ground Squirrel during Hibernation
Hibernating animals can show neuroplasticity throughout the hibernation season. In ground squirrels, decreased dendritic arborization in the hippocampus, somatosensory cortex, and thalamus during deep...
Modulation of Neuronal Ensembles Switches Memory Flexibility via Hippocampal Network Resynchronization
Engram cells are formed during learning and store memory information. However, little is known about the modulation of engram cells on time-dependent memory flexibility. Employing a male mouse model,...
Long-Range White-Matter Pathways Enable Efficient Spontaneous Neural Activity Propagation in the Human Brain
Efficient brain-wide communication requires neural activity to traverse long anatomical distances rapidly. Here we examine how propagation timing is jointly associated with spatial geometry, functiona...
Positive Bias in Value-Based Decision Making: Neurocognitive Associations with Resilience
Biased information processing plays an important role in mental disorders. This study investigates choice biases in value-based decision making and how links to psychological resilience are related to...
Histamine Originating from the BNST Modulates Corticostriatal Synaptic Transmission during Early Postnatal Development
The neuromodulator histamine regulates key processes in many circuits of the adult and developing brain, including striatum. However, striatal innervation by histaminergic afferents is very sparse mak...
Ih Shapes Pathway-Specific Inhibition in the Substantia Nigra Pars Reticulata
The substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr) functions as the principal inhibitory output of the basal ganglia, with the timing of its spikes critically controlling downstream disinhibition required for...
Inflammatory Monocyte-Derived Macrophages Drive Pain via Their Production of Nerve Growth Factor after Peripheral Nerve Injury in Mice
Immune cells are vital to regeneration and repair processes in the nervous system. We previously reported that myeloid cells play a critical role in nerve regeneration and locomotor recovery after per...
Distinct Roles of CaMKII in Synaptic Vesicle Dynamics at Zebrafish Retinal Rod Bipolar Ribbon Synapses
Calcium (Ca 2+ ) not only serves as a fundamental trigger for neurotransmitter release but also participates in shaping neurotransmitter release (NTR) during pr...
Illusory-Causal Impression Attenuates the Detection of Event Boundaries
The art of film editing bridges the transitions between discrete events to build a coherent, immersive experience for viewers. However, how the brain integrates seemingly separate moments into a coher...
Neural and Behavioral Correlates of Rapid Familiarization to Novel Taste
Gustatory cortex (GC) plays a pivotal role in taste perception, expressing neural ensemble dynamics that reflect, in sequence, taste quality and hedonics, and that influence taste-guided behavior. The...
Similar Response Dynamics Represent Opposite Behaviors and Rewards in the Frontal Cortex
The frontal cortex (FC) plays a pivotal role in adaptively controlling actions and their dynamics in response to incoming sensory signals. We explored FC encoding of identical stimuli and their behavi...
