    Learning and recognition of tactile temporal sequences by mice and humans

    Michael R Bale, Malamati Bitzidou ... Miguel Maravall
    Mice and humans learned to distinguish an arbitrary tactile sequence from other stimuli that differed only in their temporal patterning over hundreds of milliseconds, showing that sequence learning generalises across sensory modalities.

    The β-alanine transporter BalaT is required for visual neurotransmission in Drosophila

    Yongchao Han, Liangyao Xiong ... Tao Wang
    BalaT-dependent β-alanine trafficking pathway in retinal pigment cells is critical for maintaining synaptic transmission of photoreceptor neurons in Drosophila.

    Mechanotransduction: Two views of the same stimulus

    Wayne A Johnson
    Signals from two different membrane proteins are combined to modulate how strongly sensory neurons respond to mechanical force.

    Theta oscillations locked to intended actions rhythmically modulate perception

    Alice Tomassini, Luca Ambrogioni ... Eric Maris
    Theta oscillations synchronize perception with the emerging motor intention in an automatic and task-independent way.

    Neurosecretory protein GL stimulates food intake, de novo lipogenesis, and onset of obesity

    Eiko Iwakoshi-Ukena, Kenshiro Shikano ... Kazuyoshi Ukena
    Neurosecretory protein GL, a previously unknown mammalian neuropeptide, is a novel hypothalamic factor which regulates feeding behavior and peripheral lipogenesis in animals.

    A connectome of a learning and memory center in the adult Drosophila brain

    Shin-ya Takemura, Yoshinori Aso ... Louis K Scheffer
    Connectomic analysis in the fly's (Drosophila) learning and memory center identifies unique circuit motifs that have not been anticipated by over 30 years of extensive anatomical, experimental and theoretical studies.

    Locus coeruleus to basolateral amygdala noradrenergic projections promote anxiety-like behavior

    Jordan G McCall, Edward R Siuda ... Michael R Bruchas
    Selective activation of locus coeruleus noradrenergic terminals drives anxiety-like behaviors through activation of β-adrenergic receptors in the basolateral amygdala.
    1. Neuroscience

    Motoneurons regulate the central pattern generator during drug-induced locomotor-like activity in the neonatal mouse

    Melanie Falgairolle, Joshua G Puhl ... Michael J O’Donovan
    Motoneuron activity provides feedback to the spinal network responsible for generating locomotion in the developing mouse spinal cord.

    Neurobehavioral evidence of interoceptive sensitivity in early infancy

    Lara Maister, Teresa Tang, Manos Tsakiris
    Pre-verbal infants demonstrate an implicit sensitivity to interoceptive sensations, which fluctuates spontaneously during emotional processing and guides audiovisual preferences in the environment.

    Mechano-dependent signaling by Latrophilin/CIRL quenches cAMP in proprioceptive neurons

    Nicole Scholz, Chonglin Guan ... Robert J Kittel
    Metabotropic mechanosensing occurs through an adhesion-type G protein-coupled receptor.
