    Deciphering the chemical language of inbred and wild mouse conspecific scents

    Maximilian Nagel, Marco Niestroj ... Marc Spehr
    Parallel chemical and physiological profiling of conspecific chemosensory communication in mice identifies both common and unique strategies for vomeronasal signaling of sex and strain.

    Fast retrieval and autonomous regulation of single spontaneously recycling synaptic vesicles

    Jeremy Leitz, Ege T Kavalali
    Spontaneous fusion of vesicles at synapses is regulated independently of fusion triggered by action potentials, adding to evidence that the two types of fusion have distinct functions.

    A druggable secretory protein maturase of Toxoplasma essential for invasion and egress

    Sunil Kumar Dogga, Budhaditya Mukherjee ... Dominique Soldati-Favre
    An aspartyl protease is essential for the lytic cycle of Toxoplasma gondii and is involved in the maturation of proteins critical for invasion and egress, and it can be targeted selectively with an ethylamine scaffold based peptidomimetic inhibitor.

    Aberrant cortical activity, functional connectivity, and neural assembly architecture after photothrombotic stroke in mice

    Mischa Vance Bandet, Ian Robert Winship
    Longitudinal calcium imaging in awake mice after stroke suggests impairments in neuronal activity, functional connectivity, and neural assembly architecture is transient and limited to cortex immediately adjacent to the stroke.

    Context-dependent requirement of G protein coupling for Latrophilin-2 in target selection of hippocampal axons

    Daniel T Pederick, Nicole A Perry-Hauser ... Liqun Luo
    Latrophilin-2 G protein coupling is required in axons but not target neurons for neural circuit assembly in the mouse hippocampus.

    Glutamatergic supramammillary nucleus neurons respond to threatening stressors and promote active coping

    Abraham Escobedo, Salli-Ann Holloway ... Aaron J Norris
    Activation of a population of glutamatergic neurons in supramammillary nucleus enhances active coping behaviors in response to threats, offering new insights for therapeutic strategies against anxiety and mood disorders.

    Hipposeq: a comprehensive RNA-seq database of gene expression in hippocampal principal neurons

    Mark S Cembrowski, Lihua Wang ... Nelson Spruston
    Gene expression was analyzed in hippocampal principal cells, enabling cellular phenotyping and revealing novel organizational principles; complementing this, a publicly available website is released to provide outside analysis and visualization of hippocampal RNA-seq data in an accessible fashion.

    Recurrent network model for learning goal-directed sequences through reverse replay

    Tatsuya Haga, Tomoki Fukai
    The combination of short-term and long-term plasticity enables hippocampus to learn goal-directed paths through replay in a reversed order.
    1. Neuroscience

    The stability of the primed pool of synaptic vesicles and the clamping of spontaneous neurotransmitter release rely on the integrity of the C-terminal half of the SNARE domain of syntaxin-1A

    Andrea Salazar Lázaro, Thorsten Trimbuch ... Christian Rosenmund
    Structure–function studies on the synaptic vesicle release protein syntaxin-1 identified structural motifs on the surface of the SNARE complex controlling vesicle priming and spontaneous release unique for synaptic signaling.

    A single pair of pharyngeal neurons functions as a commander to reject high salt in Drosophila melanogaster

    Jiun Sang, Subash Dhakal ... Youngseok Lee
    Fruit flies have special neurons in their pharynx with ionotropic receptors to prevent consuming too much salt, which was confirmed using a variety of behavioral and physiological assays.
