Co-release of the functionally opposing fast neurotransmitters, glutamate and GABA, from distinct synaptic vesicles within the same supramammillary synaptic terminal modulates dentate granule cell firing in a frequency-dependent manner.
The important role of structural asymmetry in the functional lateralization of the same brain area provides a crucial insight into the neurobiological fundament for human brain's functional lateralization.
Gerbils exhibit stable, family-specific vocal dialects over weeks, suggesting vocal communication may play a key role in representing kinship in natural social groups.
