Data collected from two important auditory brain areas distinguish effects of generalized arousal and specific task engagement on neural sensory coding.
Thalamic interneurons in the mouse thalamus are often overlooked because of their extremely low numbers, however they are developmentally complex and related to those of larger-brained species.
Cell-type-specific molecular systems mapping reveals that striatal neuron degeneration in Huntington's disease is primarily driven by the loss of homeostatic responses.
Mechanochemical defects of a β-cardiac myosin mutation that results in severe hypertrophic cardiomyopathy are reported and the heart failure drug omecamtiv mecarbil rescues these defects.
The immune effector Drosomycin buffers stress signaling in hypertrophic salivary glands to inhibit their disintegration, detection by the cellular immune response, and promotes further overgrowth.
