Multi-scale analysis of mouse visual cortex reveals a sex-specific difference in response to long-term food restriction, with males being more impacted than females.

Transcriptomic and genetic analyses of FoxO target genes reveal a key function of ER-associated protein degradation in growth regulation of Tsc1-deficient tissues.

Serotonin modulates diet-dependent lifespan in flies.

Sleep deprivation enhances energy-dense food choices and encoding of olfactory information in the human brain.

Food supply and nutrient stress tolerance coordinately shape the multilevel selection dynamics of a mitochondrial cheater by promoting cheater persistence at both within-host and between-host levels of selection.

Activation of mu-opioid receptors in the nucleus accumbens by their endogenous ligands promotes consumption of high-fat food in sated but not hungry rats, via enhancement of a neural signal that promotes cued approach behavior.

Micronutrients, not macronutrients, regulate lifespan.

An automated touchscreen cognitive testing system for rats reduces the length of training required to learn tasks, making it possible to assess cognitive profiles in adolescent animals to more appropriately capture cognitive deficits in adolescent pathologies, such as anorexia nervosa.

TGFβ and serotonin signaling in a neural circuit encodes food availability; these signals regulate the dynamic range and variability on the circuit to impact coding accuracy and lifespan responses.

Genetic analysis of Ntn1 in adult mouse midbrain neurons reveals its function in maintaining excitatory synapses, loss of Ntn1 function in inhibitory neurons is significantly detrimental to mesolimbic system function.
