Activation of a population of glutamatergic neurons in supramammillary nucleus enhances active coping behaviors in response to threats, offering new insights for therapeutic strategies against anxiety and mood disorders.

Active and passive contributions to cell shape change and rearrangements can be distinguished from observed cell geometry, revealing the self-organization mechanisms underlying internally-driven epithelial convergent extension.

Single-cell transcriptome analysis of sacral compared with vagal neural crest-derived cells in the developing chick enteric nervous system reveals both similarities and differences between these two cell populations.

Gamma rhythms and representation of visual information in the primary visual cortex are specifically modulated by somatostatin⁺ but not parvalbumin⁺ neurons in reticular thalamic nucleus.

The higher order thalamus encodes and influences correct action during learning and performance in a sensory-based goal-directed behavior.

After domestication, the cultivation range expansion of crops was not solely dictated by human activity but instead constrained by climatic factors, which in turn resulted in distinct phenotypic characteristics of locally adaptive landraces.

In zombie fruit flies, Entomophthora muscae-elicited summiting behavior is mediated by blood-borne factors and the host circadian-neurosecretory network.

Connectomics of the octopus 'fan-out fan-in’ learning network reveals that the intermediate layer uses approximately 22×10⁶ excitatory interneurons, each can store a single sensory input, while approximately 400×10³ integrating inhibitory interneurons adjust the network output level.

Monounsaturated fatty acids protect against DKD by enhancing membrane fluidity and decreasing ER lipid bilayer stress in renal proximal tubules.

A novel connection from ventral striatum to motor cortex enables emotion and motivation to influence action and motor control.
