Habituation to brief olfactory stimulation is biphasic and mediated by distinct neuronal circuits where an initial latency phase is rapidly followed by stimulus devaluation signifying behavioral habituation in Drosophila.
Malonyl-CoA, the rate-limiting substrate for fatty acid synthesis, is produced in the soma and delivered through gap junctions to the germline to promote reproduction and coordinate it with nutritional status.
Variants in FGF13, associated with developmental and epileptic encephalopathies, alter neuronal excitability by affecting inhibitory neurons and by a sodium channel-independent mechanism.
Prefrontal cortex plays a leading role in sequential decisions compared to posterior parietal cortex and relies on nonlinear integration of sensory and mnemonic information for decision formation.

MDGAs are highly diffusive molecules that alter both neuroligin-1 and AMPA receptor dynamics and function, thereby significantly delaying the differentiation of excitatory post-synapses.

Prion-like transfer of mutant huntingtin aggregates from presynaptic to postsynaptic neurons is enhanced by neuronal silencing and requires passage through the cytoplasm of Draper-expressing phagocytic glia in adult Drosophila brains.
