    Dopaminergic regulation of vestibulo-cerebellar circuits through unipolar brush cells

    Jose Ernesto Canton-Josh, Joanna Qin ... Yevgenia Kozorovitskiy
    For cerebellar unipolar brush cells that regulate information flow to the vestibulo-cerebellum, dopaminergic modulation by locus coeruleus axons presents a new example of monoaminergic co-release poised to regulate the activity of the cerebellar cortex.

    Anatomical and functional connectivity support the existence of a salience network node within the caudal ventrolateral prefrontal cortex

    Lucas R Trambaiolli, Xiaolong Peng ... Suzanne N Haber
    The primate caudal area 47/12 is anatomically and functionally connected with the main nodes of the salience network, supporting the role of the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex in all major attention networks.

    Invariant neural subspaces maintained by feedback modulation

    Laura B Naumann, Joram Keijser, Henning Sprekeler
    Feedback-driven gain modulation provides a mechanism to generate and maintain invariant sensory representations in the presence of contextual changes by dynamically adapting feedforward sensory processing.

    Auditory mismatch responses are differentially sensitive to changes in muscarinic acetylcholine versus dopamine receptor function

    Lilian Aline Weber, Sara Tomiello ... Klaas Enno Stephan
    Biperiden, but not amisulpride, delays auditory mismatch responses during environmental stability, suggesting a differential sensitivity of auditory statistical learning to muscarinic versus dopaminergic receptor status which could prove useful for developing tests that predict an individual's response to antipsychotic treatment.

    Reorganization of postmitotic neuronal chromatin accessibility for maturation of serotonergic identity

    Xinrui L Zhang, William C Spencer ... Evan S Deneris
    Terminal selectors reorganize postmitotic neuronal chromatin to select cis-regulatory elements during 5-HT neuron maturation.

    The organic cation transporter 2 regulates dopamine D1 receptor signaling at the Golgi apparatus

    Natasha M Puri, Giovanna R Romano ... Roshanak Irannejad
    Dopamine D1 receptor signaling from the Golgi apparatus in murine striatal medium spiny neurons is regulated by monoamine transporter OCT2.

    Conservation and divergence of myelin proteome and oligodendrocyte transcriptome profiles between humans and mice

    Vasiliki-Ilya Gargareta, Josefine Reuschenbach ... Hauke B Werner
    Comparing humans and mice, the protein composition of central nervous system myelin and the transcriptional profiles of myelin-producing oligodendrocytes are largely similar with respect to abundant structural myelin constituents but show divergent expression of a range of other distinct genes.

    Rescue of behavioral and electrophysiological phenotypes in a Pitt-Hopkins syndrome mouse model by genetic restoration of Tcf4 expression

    Hyojin Kim, Eric B Gao ... Benjamin D Philpot
    Normalizing Tcf4 expression during early postnatal development improves behavioral outcomes in Pitt-Hopkins syndrome (PTHS) model mice, suggesting that genetic therapies are feasible in individuals with PTHS.

    Widespread nociceptive maps in the human neonatal somatosensory cortex

    Laura Jones, Madeleine Verriotis ... Maria Fitzgerald
    Widespread somatosensory cortical activation following a single localised skin breaking procedure indicates a diffuse pain map in the human infant brain.

    One-shot generalization in humans revealed through a drawing task

    Henning Tiedemann, Yaniv Morgenstern ... Roland W Fleming
    Humans are able to generate a complete category of varied objects from just one exemplar shape, identifying and utilizing its most distinctive parts to create a coherent group, even for other observers.
