    Polo-like kinase-dependent phosphorylation of the synaptonemal complex protein SYP-4 regulates double-strand break formation through a negative feedback loop.

    Saravanapriah Nadarajan, Talley J Lambert ... Monica P Colaiácovo
    PLK-1/2-mediated SYP-4 phosphorylation is dependent on crossover precursor formation, triggering a switch in the dynamic state of the synaptonemal complex that reduces the formation of further double-strand breaks at late meiotic prophase.

    A novel synaptic plasticity rule explains homeostasis of neuromuscular transmission

    Gilles Ouanounou, Gérard Baux, Thierry Bal
    Skeletal muscle cells constantly monitor their own activity and that of their partner neuron at synapses, enabling them to provide the neuron with feedback regarding neurotransmitter release.

    Corticofugal regulation of predictive coding

    Alexandria MH Lesicko, Christopher F Angeloni ... Maria N Geffen
    A specific neuronal pathway within the auditory system represents information about the statistical prediction and error for incoming sounds, thereby contributing to efficient representation of complex sounds and sound streams in the brain.

    Nerve growth factor receptor negates the tumor suppressor p53 as a feedback regulator

    Xiang Zhou, Qian Hao ... Hua Lu
    The nerve growth factor receptor (NGFR) protein regulates p53 via two negative feedback mechanisms, which are hijacked by cancer cells.

    Mechanisms underlying sharpening of visual response dynamics with familiarity

    Sukbin Lim
    Changes in neural response dynamics observed with visual learning provide a novel means to dissect synaptic plasticity and its interplay with slow negative feedback via firing rate adaptation.

    Genetic dissection of the different roles of hypothalamic kisspeptin neurons in regulating female reproduction

    Luhong Wang, Charlotte Vanacker ... Suzanne M Moenter
    Estradiol regulates the pre-ovulatory luteinizing hormone surge through hypothalamic anteroventral periventricular kisspeptin neurons and maintains reproductive cyclicity through arcuate kisspeptin neurons in an activational manner.

    Hsf1 and Hsp70 constitute a two-component feedback loop that regulates the yeast heat shock response

    Joanna Krakowiak, Xu Zheng ... David Pincus
    Dynamic regulation of the heat shock response depends on a negative feedback loop in which Hsf1 activates expression of Hsp70 and Hsp70 specifically and directly represses Hsf1 transactivation.

    Resonating neurons stabilize heterogeneous grid-cell networks

    Divyansh Mittal, Rishikesh Narayanan
    Intrinsic neuronal resonance stabilizes heterogeneous neural networks by suppressing low-frequency perturbations.

    A balance of positive and negative regulators determines the pace of the segmentation clock

    Guy Wiedermann, Robert Alexander Bone ... J Kim Dale
    Computational modelling together with experimental manipulation indicate that the stability and turnover of activated Notch is inextricably linked to the regulation of the pace of segmentation clock gene expression in the presomitic mesoderm.
