    HIF1α stabilization in hypoxia is not oxidant-initiated

    Amit Kumar, Manisha Vaish ... Rajiv R Ratan
    The current findings address the redox regulation of hypoxia inducible factor 1α (HIF1α) stability in hypoxia by showing that cytosolic, mitochondrial or lipid ROS are not necessary for HIF1α stabilization in hypoxia.

    Neuropsychological evidence of multi-domain network hubs in the human thalamus

    Kai Hwang, James M Shine ... Aaron Boes
    Lesions to the anterior-medio-dorsal thalamus cause widespread behavioral impairments across multiple cognitive domains, suggesting that thalamic hubs are critical for interconnecting diverse cognitive processes.

    Experience-dependent weakening of callosal synaptic connections in the absence of postsynaptic FMRP

    Zhe Zhang, Jay R Gibson, Kimberly M Huber
    Postnatal, postsynaptic loss of FMRP specifically weakens callosal synaptic inputs onto L2/3 pyramidal neurons, in requirement ofnormal sensory experience, through downregulating AMPA receptor transmission and without affecting local synaptic inputs during cortical circuit development.

    The structure of behavioral variation within a genotype

    Zachary Werkhoven, Alyssa Bravin ... Benjamin L de Bivort
    Multidimensional analysis of data from high-throughput behavioral assays reveals many independent axes of behavioral variation among inbred animals reared in the same environment.

    Dynamic dichotomy of accumbal population activity underlies cocaine sensitization

    Ruud van Zessen, Yue Li ... Christian Lüscher
    Cocaine elicits opposing activity changes in D1R vs D2R spiny projection neurons of the nucleus accumbens with much variability, subsequent recruitment of a subset of D1R neurons drives behavioral sensitization.

    Early life experience sets hard limits on motor learning as evidenced from artificial arm use

    Roni O Maimon-Mor, Hunter R Schone ... Tamar R Makin
    Biological- or artificial-arm experience during early development has a significant effect on artificial-arm motor control in adulthood, providing evidence for limited sensorimotor plasticity beyond childhood.

    TRPM7 is critical for short-term synaptic depression by regulating synaptic vesicle endocytosis

    Zhong-Jiao Jiang, Wenping Li ... Liang-Wei Gong
    Electrophysiological and live-cell imaging analyses identify a presynaptic function of Ca2+ influx via transient receptor potential melastatin 7 (TRPM7) channels.

    Memory recall involves a transient break in excitatory-inhibitory balance

    Renée S Koolschijn, Anna Shpektor ... Helen C Barron
    Hippocampal activity during memory recall predicts a transient increase in the ratio between neocortical glutamate and GABA, thereby allowing otherwise dormant memories to be released.

    Skipping ahead: A circuit for representing the past, present, and future

    Jennifer C Robinson, Mark P Brandon
    A circuit between the hippocampus, nucleus reunions, and prefrontal cortex organizes information about the past, present, and future into alternating theta sequences.

    An open-source, high-performance tool for automated sleep staging

    Raphael Vallat, Matthew P Walker
    A robust automatic sleep-staging algorithm offers a high level of accuracy matching that of typical human interscorer agreement.
