    Acute stress reduces effortful prosocial behaviour

    Paul AG Forbes, Gökhan Aydogan ... Claus Lamm
    Participants under acute stress were less willing to exert a relatively low level of physical effort for actions that benefit another person compared to actions that benefit themselves.

    Inhibitory CCK+ basket synapse defects in mouse models of dystroglycanopathy

    Jennifer N Jahncke, Daniel S Miller ... Kevin M Wright
    Loss of functional dystroglycan disrupts the formation and function of CCK+/CB1R+ inhibitory synapses in hippocampal CA1, resulting in reduced seizure thresholds in mouse models of dystroglycanopathy.

    A maximum of two readily releasable vesicles per docking site at a cerebellar single active zone synapse

    Melissa Silva, Van Tran, Alain Marty
    Counting the number of synaptic vesicles released in simple synapses under high release probability conditions revealed a maximum readily releasable pool size of two vesicles per docking site.

    Modeling apical and basal tree contribution to orientation selectivity in a mouse primary visual cortex layer 2/3 pyramidal cell

    Konstantinos-Evangelos Petousakis, Jiyoung Park ... Panayiota Poirazi
    Apical and basal dendrites contribute differently to single-neuron orientation selectivity, highlighting the impact of feedforward and feedback signal interactions.
