Multi area RNN models fitted to in-vivo cortical activity predict behavioral changes induced by optogenetic perturbations, if biologically informed connectivity constraints on the optogenetically targeted inhibitory neurons are applied.
A simple statistical model captures the essential features of object motion in a large database of natural scenes, helping to shed light on the challenges posed to sensory and motor systems.
Genetic approaches identify Rtf1-dependent transcriptional pausing as an essential mechanism governing the deployment of the cardiac gene program during myocardial differentiation from the mesoderm.
BK and CaV1.3 channels interact early during biogenesis, assembling intracellularly before membrane localization, indicating coordinated processes for functional coupling.
Bioinformatics, RNA-protein interactions, and HuR-based functional studies demonstrated that the rs13900T allele modulates CCL2 transcript levels, providing a functional link between the CCL2 rs1024611G-rs13900T haplotype and disease susceptibility/progression.
A context-driven memory model simulates a wide range of characteristics of waking and sleeping hippocampal replay, providing a new account of how and why replay occurs.
A new CRISPR-based approach for tuning gene expression up and down allowed identification of how other genes' expression responds to changes of transcription factors.
Exosome-associated THSD7A is identified as a key trigger of filopodia formation in cancer cells and neurons, revealing a novel pathway with implications for metastasis, neuronal connectivity, and other filopodia-dependent processes.
