    Essential role for InSyn1 in dystroglycan complex integrity and cognitive behaviors in mice

    Akiyoshi Uezu, Erin Hisey ... Scott Soderling
    InSyn1 is a new inhibitory post-synaptic protein that is essential for the dystroglycan complex, neuronal activity in vitro and in vivo, and cognitive behavior.

    Cell-specific non-canonical amino acid labelling identifies changes in the de novo proteome during memory formation

    Harrison Tudor Evans, Liviu-Gabriel Bodea, Jürgen Götz
    Quantitative de novo proteomics paired with in vivo cell-specific non-canonical amino acid labelling identified several spatial long-term memory-induced changes in protein synthesis in hippocampal neurons.

    Uncovering the functional anatomy of the human insula during speech

    Oscar Woolnough, Kiefer James Forseth ... Nitin Tandon
    Direct insular recordings in humans reveal that contrary to several prominent models of speech production, it is not engaged in pre-articulatory planning, but in auditory and somatosensory components of speech.

    A terminal selector prevents a Hox transcriptional switch to safeguard motor neuron identity throughout life

    Weidong Feng, Yinan Li ... Paschalis Kratsios
    A molecular mechanism that involves highly conserved transcription factors enables cholinergic motor neurons of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans to become and remain functional.

    Amyloid and tau accumulate across distinct spatial networks and are differentially associated with brain connectivity

    Joana B Pereira, Rik Ossenkoppele ... Oskar Hansson
    The amyloid patterns overlap with the default-mode network, whereas the tau patterns overlap with distinct functional networks and are associated with a loss of anatomical connectivity and multiple cognitive functions.

    Opioids modulate an emergent rhythmogenic process to depress breathing

    Xiaolu Sun, Carolina Thörn Pérez ... Kaiwen Kam
    Inspiratory rhythmogenesis is mediated by an emergent mechanism independent of bursts associated with motor output and is modulated by opioids, pointing to strategies for ameliorating opioid-induced respiratory depression.

    Activity-dependent death of transient Cajal-Retzius neurons is required for functional cortical wiring

    Martina Riva, Ioana Genescu ... Alessandra Pierani
    The complete elimination of a transient superficial population of neurons, and associated immature circuits, is required for the emergence of functional properties in the mature cerebral cortex.

    MouseBytes, an open-access high-throughput pipeline and database for rodent touchscreen-based cognitive assessment

    Flavio H Beraldo, Daniel Palmer ... Marco AM Prado
    Comprehensive dataset of high-level cognitive assessment in mouse models of neurodegeneration, accompanied by an open-access database/repository to change the paradigm of how cognitive studies in animal models can be shared/re-used.

    Elements of a stochastic 3D prediction engine in larval zebrafish prey capture

    Andrew D Bolton, Martin Haesemeyer ... Florian Engert
    Zebrafish implement a stochastic recursive algorithm during prey capture that reflects an implicit physical model of the world.

    Sequential phosphorylation of NDEL1 by the DYRK2-GSK3β complex is critical for neuronal morphogenesis

    Youngsik Woo, Soo Jeong Kim ... Sang Ki Park
    Sequential phosphorylation of NDEL1 Ser336/Ser332 by DYRK2 and GSK3β is a novel regulatory step for actin dynamics that contributes to the neurite outgrowth and neuronal arborization in the developing brain.
