The extracellular concentration of dopamine in the nucleus accumbens core is progressively diminished by white noise, an underutilized, easy-to-titrate aversive stimulus, but is unaffected by white-noise intensity, context valence, and associated probabilistic contingencies.

Semaphorin7A sculpts the collective arbor architecture of the lateral line nerve and facilitates neural contacts with the hair cells for synaptogenesis during neuromast development in the zebrafish.

Emergence of hematopoietic stem cells from an aortic component is a unique phenomenon of cell extrusion, with no equivalent in cell biology, and which is adapted to environmental constraints exerted by endothelial cells and hemodynamics forces.

The fidelity of 3D visual object representations, choice-related activity, and experience-dependent sensorimotor associations are functionally linked in the caudal intraparietal area.

The A1 of ferrets and mice show similar tonotopic organizations, with neurons preferring a single frequency being more precisely organized into a tonotopic map than multipeaked neurons.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy-causing mutations in the light chain-binding region of β-cardiac myosin's lever arm appear to disrupt myosin tail-based autoinhibition, while mutations in the pliant region of the lever arm reduce autoinhibition in the presence of actin and impact myosin’s powerstroke.

Single neuron images of Drosophila driver lines reveal neuron shape and are searchable, enabling comparisons to electron microscopy and prediction of intersectional neuron targeting strategies.

Asymmetries between the shape of the left and right human cortex are highly unique to individuals, akin to a neuroanatomical fingerprint, related to cognitive function, and primarily driven by person-specific environmental influences.

Circadian gene expression can be driven by a post-transcriptional mechanism involving circadian mRNA nuclear retention by paraspeckle nuclear bodies.

Adult mouse fibroblasts maintain an embryonic gene expression signature, inherited from their organ of origin, that is important for organ homeostasis and fibrosis, and may assist in targeting fibrotic diseases in an organ-specific manner.
