Mitochondrial fission, associated with fatty acids oxidation, is fundamental for AgRP neuronal activity during negative energy balance and in regulating fasting- and/or ghrelin-induced feeding.
Neural substrates of objective vs. subjective memory states can be distinguished, including their role in supporting decisions aimed at optimizing performance.

An investigation of transposable element evolution in a group of long-term asexual animals shows that many of the predicted effects of asexuality are not observed.
The Trrap-HAT-Sp1 axis operates a conserved transcriptional program to control proper microtubule dynamics in brain homeostasis and prevents neurodegeneration.
