    Adrenomedullin restores the human cortical interneurons migration defects induced by hypoxia

    Alyssa Puno, Wojciech P Michno ... Anca M Pasca
    Exposure of human cortical interneurons to hypoxia leads to decreased migration, a process that is likely altered in preterm infants and contributes to the increased risk for neurodevelopmental problems.

    A meta-analysis suggests that TMS targeting the hippocampal network selectively improves episodic memory

    Elena Badillo Goicoechea, Phillip F Agres ... Joel L Voss
    Meta-analysis indicates that network-targeted non-invasive brain stimulation consistently enhances memory function supported by the hippocampal network, thus providing robust evidence that specific memory abilities rely on specific modifiable brain networks.

    Subregional activity in the dentate gyrus is amplified during elevated cognitive demands

    Charlotte CM Castillon, Shintaro Otsuka ... Anis Contractor
    Selective engagement of suprapyramidal dentate gyrus neurons during a high-demand pattern separation task reveals blade-specific circuit engagement for enhancing mnemonic discrimination.

    Identification of the regulatory elements and protein substrates of lysine acetoacetylation

    Qianyun Fu, Terry Nguyen ... Y George Zheng
    A newly developed chemo-immunological strategy enabled detection of acetoacetate-mediated lysine acetoacetylation, identified the associated regulatory enzymes, and revealed its distinct biological functions and physiological significance.

    Effort produces after-effects costly for others but valued for self

    Ya Zheng, Rumeng Tang
    Neural reward signals following effort are amplified for self-benefiting outcomes but attenuated for other-benefiting outcomes, contingent upon reward magnitude and individual effort sensitivity.

    Drosophila ryanodine receptor gene triggers functional and developmental muscle properties and could be used to assess the impact of human RYR1 mutations

    Monika Zmojdzian, Teresa Jagla ... Catherine Sarret
    The Drosophila ryanodine receptor plays a conserved role in setting functional and structural muscle properties, regulates embryonic muscle development and could be used to assess the impact of human RYR1 mutations.

    Dissociable neural substrates of integration and segregation in exogenous attention

    Yujie Chen, Ai-Su Li ... Yang Zhang
    Dissociable neural signatures of integration and segregation provide the first direct neuroimaging evidence for the integration-segregation theory of exogenous attention.

    Physiological febrile heat stress increases cytoadhesion through increased protein trafficking of Plasmodium falciparum surface proteins into the red blood cell

    David Jones, Hugo Belda ... Moritz Treeck
    Fever, often seen as protective, accelerates protein export to surfaces of malaria-infected RBCs, increasing adhesion linked to disease severity.

    Locus coeruleus modulation of prefrontal dynamics during attentional switching in mice

    Marco Nigro, Lucas Silva Tortorelli ... Hongdian Yang
    Inhibiting locus coeruleus input to the medial prefrontal cortex in mice impaired task performance, affected the tuning of single cortical neurons and disrupted population dynamics and encoding capacity during attentional switching.

    Characterisation of cold-selective lamina I spinal projection neurons in the mouse

    Aimi N Razlan, Wenhui Ma ... Junichi Hachisuka
    Lamina I projection neurons that respond selectively to skin cooling receive monosynaptic input from Trpm8-expressing primary afferents and innervate brain regions involved in perception of cold and cold defence mechanisms.
