Metabotropic glutamate receptors modulate impulse control by the subthalamic nucleus, dissociating trait impulsivity from basal ganglia motor function.

Hunger-sensitive AgRP neurons must sense changes in calorie availability to transmit metabolic information into dopamine release in the NAc and dorsal striatum, albeit over different time frames, to increase motivated food reward seeking.

Sleep-wake patterns, together with a suprachiasmatic nuclei-independent circadian factor, are necessary and sufficient to maintain high-amplitude nychthemeral rhythms in PERIOD-2.

Physiology studies demonstrate that CaMKII is a molecular storage device.

Iterative immunostaining using 4i enables detailed characterization of complex mouse and human tissues.

A new computational analysis of decision making in mice shows sex biases in value-updating while exploring unknown options, with male mice tending to explore longer than females due to updating values more slowly.

The combination of juxtacellular recordings with optogenetics in freely moving mice enables the targeting of genetically defined cell classes for high-resolution, single-cell structure–function analysis.

The fly connectome reveals dedicated cell types for processing specific kinds of visual information such as color or skylight polarization.

B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) modulates itch via BNP-NPRC pathway by enhancing NMB-NMBR signaling, which is independently of gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP)-GRPR signaling in the spinal cord.

Movement planning elicits finger-specific activity in primary somatosensory cortex that is strongly correlated to the finger-specific activity elicited during movement execution.
