    Scn1a-GFP transgenic mouse revealed Nav1.1 expression in neocortical pyramidal tract projection neurons

    Tetsushi Yamagata, Ikuo Ogiwara ... Kazuhiro Yamakawa
    In neocortex, Nav1.1 is expressed in neocortical pyramidal tract projection neurons and a minor subpopulation of cortico-cortical projection neurons in addition to its predominant expression in inhibitory neurons, while the majority of cortico-thalamic, cortico-striatal, and cortico-cortical neurons express Nav1.2.

    Large-scale electrophysiology and deep learning reveal distorted neural signal dynamics after hearing loss

    Shievanie Sabesan, Andreas Fragner ... Nicholas A Lesica
    Deep neural network modeling of auditory processing identifies distorted cross-frequency interactions as the key problem for the processing of speech in noise after hearing loss.

    Synaptic and circuit mechanisms prevent detrimentally precise correlation in the developing mammalian visual system

    Ruben A Tikidji-Hamburyan, Gubbi Govindaiah ... Matthew T Colonnese
    The imprecise and broad connectivity of retinal inputs during development have the potential to generate large correlations in target neurons that reduce retinotopic information unless suppressed by the special synaptic and circuit properties present at these ages.

    On the normative advantages of dopamine and striatal opponency for learning and choice

    Alana Jaskir, Michael J Frank
    A computational model of the opponent neural architecture the basal ganglia, in tandem with adaptive dopamine modulation, exhibits robust advantages over traditional learning algorithms and ties together seemingly aberrant behavioral patterns resulting from dopamine and environmental manipulations across species.

    Early myelination involves the dynamic and repetitive ensheathment of axons which resolves through a low and consistent stabilization rate

    Adam R Almeida, Wendy B Macklin
    Oligodendrocytes iteratively wrap and unwrap the same domain of an axon multiple times during development, which likely impacts myelin sheath stabilization.

    Origin of wiring specificity in an olfactory map revealed by neuron type–specific, time-lapse imaging of dendrite targeting

    Kenneth Kin Lam Wong, Tongchao Li ... Liqun Luo
    Advanced genetics and imaging reveal wiring logic underlying the olfactory map organization in the developing fruit fly brain, and strategies employed by projection neurons to target dendrites to specific locations in a timely manner.

    Cannabidiol sensitizes TRPV2 channels to activation by 2-APB

    Aaron Gochman, Xiao-Feng Tan ... Andres Jara-Oseguera
    Cannabidiol is an ultra potent sensitizer for 2-APB responses in rTRPV2 and mTRPV3 channels but not in rTRPV1 through a mechanism that engages channel regions further from the cannabidiol binding site and the pore.

    Antisense, but not sense, repeat expanded RNAs activate PKR/eIF2α-dependent ISR in C9ORF72 FTD/ALS

    Janani Parameswaran, Nancy Zhang ... Jie Jiang
    C9ORF72 antisense repeat expanded RNAs activate PKR/eIF2α dependent integrated stress response and cause neuronal toxicity independent of DPR proteins.

    linc-mipep and linc-wrb encode micropeptides that regulate chromatin accessibility in vertebrate-specific neural cells

    Valerie A Tornini, Liyun Miao ... Antonio J Giraldez
    Two putative long noncoding RNAs in zebrafish encode micropeptides with homology to the vertebrate-specific chromatin architectural protein, Hmgn1, which are required for development of vertebrate-specific brain cell types.
