    Sensory experience controls dendritic structure and behavior by distinct pathways involving degenerins

    Sharon Inberg, Yael Iosilevskii ... Benjamin Podbilewicz
    Mechanosensory isolation of C. elegans nematodes independently induces homeostatic structural changes in the dendritic tree and differential response to mechanical stimulation, both these structural and behavioral outcomes are mediated by degenerins and do not affect presynaptic calcium dynamics.

    Projections from thalamic nucleus reuniens to hippocampal CA1 area participate in context fear extinction by affecting extinction-induced molecular remodeling of excitatory synapses

    Magdalena Ziółkowska, Narges Sotoudeh ... Kasia Radwanska
    Confocal and electron microscopy analyses reveal that contextual fear extinction induces structural remodeling of thalamic projections to the CA1 area of the hippocampus.
