    Characterizing functional pathways of the human olfactory system

    Guangyu Zhou, Gregory Lane ... Christina Zelano
    Human primary olfactory cortical regions can be parcellated into anatomically distinct areas based on whole-brain functional connectivity profiles, suggesting distinct, parallel functional pathways in the human olfactory system.

    Agrin-Lrp4-Ror2 signaling regulates adult hippocampal neurogenesis in mice

    Hongsheng Zhang, Anupama Sathyamurthy ... Lin Mei
    Enriched environment stimulates neuron generation in the hippocampus by a novel pathway involving Agrin, Lrp4, and Ror2.

    Acetylation of BMAL1 by TIP60 controls BRD4-P-TEFb recruitment to circadian promoters

    Nikolai Petkau, Harun Budak ... Gregor Eichele
    Acetylation of the circadian transcription factor BMAL1 by the acetyltransferase TIP60 is crucial for recruitment of the pause release factors to clock gene promoters and productive elongation of these genes.

    Distinct ipRGC subpopulations mediate light’s acute and circadian effects on body temperature and sleep

    Alan C Rupp, Michelle Ren ... Tiffany M Schmidt
    Daily fluctuations versus transient perturbations in environmental light influence behavior and physiology through distinct circuits.

    Voluntary and involuntary contributions to perceptually guided saccadic choices resolved with millisecond precision

    Emilio Salinas, Benjamin R Steinberg ... Terrence R Stanford
    Looking away from a salient visual stimulus pits the reflexive urge to look toward it against the voluntary intention not to, and this conflict is resolved within tens of milliseconds.

    Conditional deletion of glucocorticoid receptors in rat brain results in sex-specific deficits in fear and coping behaviors

    Jessie R Scheimann, Rachel D Moloney ... James P Herman
    Development of a conditional glucocorticoid receptor knockdown rat model allows for high resolution anatomical, physiological and behavioral exploration into the role of glucocorticoid receptor signaling in defined cell populations.

    The transcription factor odd-paired regulates temporal identity in transit-amplifying neural progenitors via an incoherent feed-forward loop

    Merve Deniz Abdusselamoglu, Elif Eroglu ... Jürgen A Knoblich
    Odd-paired (opa) is required for the progression of temporal patterning in Drosophila neural progenitors to regulate temporal identities via an incoherent feed-forward loop.

    Inhibitory muscarinic acetylcholine receptors enhance aversive olfactory learning in adult Drosophila

    Noa Bielopolski, Hoger Amin ... Moshe Parnas
    Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor type A in adult Drosophila inhibits Kenyon cells, and is required for aversive olfactory learning and learning-associated synaptic depression between Kenyon cells and their output neurons.

    Network-wide abnormalities explain memory variability in hippocampal amnesia

    Georgios PD Argyropoulos, Clare Loane ... Christopher R Butler
    Hippocampal damage is associated with changes across the extended hippocampal system, and these may explain variability in memory between patients presenting with hippocampal amnesia.

    More homogeneous capillary flow and oxygenation in deeper cortical layers correlate with increased oxygen extraction

    Baoqiang Li, Tatiana V Esipova ... Sava Sakadžić
    Resting-state capillary blood flow and oxygenation are more homogeneous in the deeper cortical layers, underpinning an important mechanism by which the microvascular network adapts to an increased local oxidative metabolism.
