    Identification of an early subset of cerebellar nuclei neurons in mice

    Maryam Rahimi-Balaei, Shayan Amiri ... Hassan Marzban
    A distinct subset of cerebellar nuclei neurons originates from a previously unrecognized germinal zone within the cerebellar primordium, independent of Atoh1 influence, highlighting new cellular origins in cerebellar development.

    Distinct release properties of glutamate/GABA co-transmission serve as a frequency-dependent filtering of supramammillary inputs

    Himawari Hirai, Kohtarou Konno ... Yuki Hashimotodani
    Co-release of the functionally opposing fast neurotransmitters, glutamate and GABA, from distinct synaptic vesicles within the same supramammillary synaptic terminal modulates dentate granule cell firing in a frequency-dependent manner.

    A spatial threshold for astrocyte calcium surge

    Justin Lines, Andres Baraibar ... Alfonso Araque
    In astrocytes, there exists an intrinsic spatial threshold of subcellular calcium levels that triggers an astrocyte calcium surge throughout the cell, demonstrating cellular astrocyte calcium integration of time and space.

    Pathogenic Huntingtin aggregates alter actin organization and cellular stiffness resulting in stalled clathrin-mediated endocytosis

    Surya Bansi Singh, Shatruhan Singh Rajput ... Deepa Subramanyam
    Neurodegeneration driven by pathogenic aggregating proteins reorganizes the actin cytoskeleton, causing cellular stiffening and abolishing force generation required for endocytic events.

    Estradiol elicits distinct firing patterns in arcuate nucleus kisspeptin neurons of females through altering ion channel conductances

    Jian Qiu, Margaritis Voliotis ... Martin J Kelly
    Kiss1ARH neurons transition from synchronous to burst firing under preovulatory levels of E2, causing a shift from peptidergic to glutamatergic transmission that drives the GnRH surge through enhanced glutamate neurotransmission.

    Caspar specifies primordial germ cell count and identity in Drosophila melanogaster

    Subhradip Das, Sushmitha Hegde ... Girish S Ratnaparkhi
    During Drosophila primordial germ cells (PGCs) specification, the centrosome and germplasm are subject to regulation, during the maternal zygotic transition, by Caspar/TER94-dependent degradative pathways that influence PGC determinants.
