    Basolateral amygdala oscillations enable fear learning in a biophysical model

    Anna Cattani, Don B Arnold ... Nancy Kopell
    Computational modeling suggests that the BLA is capable of producing the recorded LFP rhythms via interactions of interneuron subtypes, and that those rhythms may be necessary for associative learning.

    Functional implications of the exon 9 splice insert in GluK1 kainate receptors

    Surbhi Dhingra, Prachi M Chopade ... Janesh Kumar
    GluK1-1 splice variant alters the gating properties of kainate receptors, providing crucial insights into receptor modulation by auxiliary proteins and advancing the understanding of synaptic transmission.

    TMEM16 and OSCA/TMEM63 proteins share a conserved potential to permeate ions and phospholipids

    Augustus J Lowry, Pengfei Liang ... Yang Zhang
    Proteins in the Transmembrane Channel-Scramblase (TCS) superfamily share an evolutionarily conserved ability to permeate ions and phospholipids, challenging distinctions between ion channels and lipid scramblases.

    Conservation of the cooling agent binding pocket within the TRPM subfamily

    Kate Huffer, Matthew CS Denley ... Kenton J Swartz
    The cooling agent pocket in TRPM8 is conserved in a subset of other TRPM channels and the cooling agent icilin can regulate opening of TRPM4 channels in response to calcium and voltage.

    Revealing a hidden conducting state by manipulating the intracellular domains in KV10.1 exposes the coupling between two gating mechanisms

    Reham Abdelaziz, Adam P Tomczak ... Luis A Pardo
    The phenotype of mutant potassium channels described here allows the mechanistic dissection of the complex process of potassium channel gating in the pathology-relevant KCNH family.

    The MODY-associated KCNK16 L114P mutation increases islet glucagon secretion and limits insulin secretion resulting in transient neonatal diabetes and glucose dyshomeostasis in adults

    Arya Y Nakhe, Prasanna K Dadi ... David A Jacobson
    A mouse model of maturity-onset diabetes of the young illuminates that overactive TALK-1 channels limit β-cell calcium influx through membrane potential hyperpolarization, which blunts insulin secretion and causes glucose intolerance.

    Exploring the K+ binding site and its coupling to transport in the neurotransmitter:sodium symporter LeuT

    Solveig G Schmidt, Andreas Nygaard ... Claus J Loland
    Potassium presumably binds to the Na1 site in LeuT, playing a role in inwardly rectifying the transport of substrates.

    Brain and molecular mechanisms underlying the nonlinear association between close friendships, mental health, and cognition in children

    Chun Shen, Edmund T Rolls ... Jianfeng Feng
    Close friend quantity is nonlinearly associated with various mental health and cognitive outcomes in children and could be partly explained by the structure of the social brain and the endogenous opioid system.

    Enhanced functional detection of synaptic calcium-permeable AMPA receptors using intracellular NASPM

    Ian Coombs, Cécile Bats ... Mark Farrant
    Intracellular NASPM, unlike the widely used spermine, fully blocks outward currents through calcium-permeable AMPA-type glutamate receptors, enabling an improved functional readout for this physiologically important receptor subtype in neurons.
