    Septal cholinergic input to CA2 hippocampal region controls social novelty discrimination via nicotinic receptor-mediated disinhibition

    Domenico Pimpinella, Valentina Mastrorilli ... Marilena Griguoli
    Acetylcholine, released from cholinergic fibers originating from the medial septum, shapes social memory, and controls the CA2 hippocampal circuit via nicotinic receptors localized on GABAergic interneurons.

    Different types of theta rhythmicity are induced by social and fearful stimuli in a network associated with social memory

    Alex Tendler, Shlomo Wagner
    Variations in the frequency of theta brain waves enable a single network of brain regions to generate appropriate responses to stimuli with different kinds of emotional value.

    Oxytocin improves behavioral and electrophysiological deficits in a novel Shank3-deficient rat

    Hala Harony-Nicolas, Maya Kay ... Joseph D Buxbaum
    The production, validation and study of a novel rat model for Phelan McDermid Syndrome shows an ameliorative effect of oxytocin on both social and attentional deficits.

    Genetic variation in the social environment affects behavioral phenotypes of oxytocin receptor mutants in zebrafish

    Diogo Ribeiro, Ana Rita Nunes ... Rui F Oliveira
    Individual social behavior results from the interaction between the individuals own oxytocin receptor genotype and the oxytocin receptor genotypes of other individuals present in its social environment.

    Cannabinoid signaling modulation through JZL184 restores key phenotypes of a mouse model for Williams–Beuren syndrome

    Alba Navarro-Romero, Lorena Galera-López ... Andres Ozaita
    A mouse model of Williams–Beuren syndrome allowed us to assess the endocannabinoid system and the impact of targeting the monoacyl glycerol lipase in modulating key phenotypes such as cognitive and hypersocial phenotype as well as the cardiac phenotype.

    Presynaptic PTPσ regulates postsynaptic NMDA receptor function through direct adhesion-independent mechanisms

    Kyungdeok Kim, Wangyong Shin ... Eunjoon Kim
    Presynaptic adhesion molecule PTPσ in the hippocampus regulates postsynaptic NMDA receptor function and behavioral novelty recognition through mechanisms independent of their trans-synaptic binding partners.

    The olfactory critical period is determined by activity-dependent Sema7A/PlxnC1 signaling within glomeruli

    Nobuko Inoue, Hirofumi Nishizumi ... Hitoshi Sakano
    The critical period in the mouse olfactory system is defined by activity-dependent synapse formation induced by Semaphorin7A/PlexinC1 signaling in the neonatal glomeruli.

    Functional gradients in the human lateral prefrontal cortex revealed by a comprehensive coordinate-based meta-analysis

    Majd Abdallah, Gaston E Zanitti ... Demian Wassermann
    A comprehensive meta-analysis of the neuroimaging literature reveals that the lateral prefrontal cortex of humans is mainly organized along its rostrocaudal axis according to a unimodal-to-transmodal pattern of network connectivity and a concrete-to-abstract axis of functional associations.

    Individual recognition and the ‘face inversion effect’ in medaka fish (Oryzias latipes)

    Mu-Yun Wang, Hideaki Takeuchi
    Medaka fish were able to use faces for individual recognition, and were slower to recognise inverted faces but not inverted non-face shapes.

    Mountain gorillas maintain strong affiliative biases for maternal siblings despite high male reproductive skew and extensive exposure to paternal kin

    Nicholas M Grebe, Jean Paul Hirwa ... Stacy Rosenbaum
    Mountain gorillas, who live in close-knit social groups with siblings and non-siblings of both sexes throughout their lives, show distinct behavioral biases towards maternal versus paternal kin.
