High-fat ingestion triggers microglial metabolic activation within a single feeding cycle, and enhances whole-body metabolism and memory by converting fatty acids into protective substrates for surrounding neurons.
Aging reduces the potassium M current in sympathetic motor neurons, resulting in a hyperactive phenotype that can be reversed by pharmacological activation of these channels.

A striking and consequential conductance in vestibular type I hair cells is finally shown to depend on a little-known Shaker subunit that contributes to conventional conductances in other hair cells.
Hungry flies shifting from cooler to warmer temperature preferences in response to non-nutritive food indicates a taste-triggered response, similar to the cephalic phase response observed in mammals.
Metabolomics analysis identified potential neuroactive metabolites, issued from food and microbial fermentation, that are linked to symptoms of depression, anxiety and alcohol craving.

Major differences among the main spinal V1 inhibitory interneuron subgroups were revealed based on neurogenesis, circuit placement, and motoneuron targeting, and Foxp2-V1 interneurons were identified tightly coupled to limb control.
