    Individual behavioral trajectories shape whole-brain connectivity in mice

    Jadna Bogado Lopes, Anna N Senko ... Gerd Kempermann
    When genes and environment are controlled, mice still develop stable differences in behavior, which are associated with large-scale differences in brain structure and connectivity.

    BDNF/TrkB signaling endosomes in axons coordinate CREB/mTOR activation and protein synthesis in the cell body to induce dendritic growth in cortical neurons

    Guillermo Moya-Alvarado, Reynaldo Tiburcio-Felix ... Francisca C Bronfman
    BDNF axonal signaling regulates protein synthesis in neuronal cell bodies leading to dendritic arborization through dynein-dependent transport of signaling endosomes.

    Oligodendrocyte-lineage cell exocytosis and L-type prostaglandin D synthase promote oligodendrocyte development and myelination

    Lin Pan, Amelia Trimarco ... Ye Zhang
    Oligodendrocyte-lineage cells secrete L-type prostaglandin synthase in an autocrine loop to promote oligodendrocyte development and myelination.

    Microglial motility is modulated by neuronal activity and correlates with dendritic spine plasticity in the hippocampus of awake mice

    Felix Christopher Nebeling, Stefanie Poll ... Martin Fuhrmann
    Microglia that presumably sense neuronal activity via detection of glutamate at synapses in the hippocampus show higher fine process motility and increased contact rates associated with formation and elimination of dendritic spines under conditions of elevated neuronal activity.

    Intraparietal stimulation disrupts negative distractor effects in human multi-alternative decision-making

    Carmen Kohl, Michelle XM Wong ... Bolton KH Chau
    Divisive normalisation effects on decision making caused by distractor options can be reduced by stimulating the parietal cortex using transcranial magnetic stimulation.

    Targeted anatomical and functional identification of antinociceptive and pronociceptive serotonergic neurons that project to the spinal dorsal horn

    Robert Philip Ganley, Marilia Magalhaes de Sousa ... Hanns Ulrich Zeilhofer
    Two populations of serotonergic neurons are present in the medial and lateral hindbrain, which are shown to project to distinct spinal cord regions and have opposing effects on nociception in mice.

    Cerebrospinal fluid-contacting neuron tracing reveals structural and functional connectivity for locomotion in the mouse spinal cord

    Yuka Nakamura, Miyuki Kurabe ... Masaki Ueno
    Newly developed methods to genetically target cerebrospinal fluid-contacting neurons reveal unique caudorostrally extended projections and recurrent connections in the spinal motor circuitry to control locomotion in mice.

    Neural assemblies uncovered by generative modeling explain whole-brain activity statistics and reflect structural connectivity

    Thijs L van der Plas, Jérôme Tubiana ... Georges Debrégeas
    A data-driven network model offers an interpretable and physiologically sound description of the whole-brain spontaneous neural activity of zebrafish larvae.

    Pallidal neuromodulation of the explore/exploit trade-off in decision-making

    Ana Luisa de A Marcelino, Owen Gray ... Tom Gilbertson
    Deep brain stimulation (DBS) exhibit that the excitability of the basal ganglia can govern the trade off between exploiting available resources or exploring alternative courses of action.

    Pericytes control vascular stability and auditory spiral ganglion neuron survival

    Yunpei Zhang, Lingling Neng ... Xiaorui Shi
    Pericytes in the adult ear are critical for vascular stability and spiral ganglion neuron health.
