    Heterogeneous presynaptic receptive fields contribute to directional tuning in starburst amacrine cells

    John A Gaynes, Samuel A Budoff ... Alon Poleg-Polsky
    A combination of glutamate imaging, multicompartmental modeling, and machine learning elucidates the peak theoretical and actual contributions of heterogeneous kinetics of presynaptic inputs to the computation of directional selectivity in retinal starburst amacrine cells.

    Sensory neurons couple arousal and foraging decisions in Caenorhabditis elegans

    Elias Scheer, Cornelia I Bargmann
    A long-term arousal state is linked to the acute decision to leave a food patch by sensory neurons that integrate neuromodulatory information, food intake, and environmental signals.

    FSHβ links photoperiodic signaling to seasonal reproduction in Japanese quail

    Gaurav Majumdar, Timothy A Liddle ... Tyler Stevenson
    Molecular analyses reveal the neuroendocrine control of seasonal life-history transitions in birds.

    Courtship behaviour reveals temporal regularity is a critical social cue in mouse communication

    Catherine Perrodin, Colombine Verzat, Daniel Bendor
    A behavioural paradigm demonstrates that during courtship song preference by female mice relies on the temporal regularity of the male's production of song syllables.

    PAK3 downregulation induces cognitive impairment following cranial irradiation

    Haksoo Lee, Hyunkoo Kang ... BuHyun Youn
    p21-activated kinase 3 (PAK3) is a factor related to radiation-induced cognitive decline, and it has been found that regulating it leads to the recovery of cognitive decline induced by radiation.

    Imaging microglia surveillance during sleep-wake cycles in freely behaving mice

    Xiaochun Gu, Zhong Zhao ... Heping Cheng
    Using long-term in vivo imaging with miniature two-photon microscopy, microglia surveillance is sleep state-dependent and stress-induced in freely behaving mice, regulated by the locus coeruleus-norepinephrine system and β2-adrenergic receptors signaling.

    Microglia facilitate and stabilize the response to general anesthesia via modulating the neuronal network in a brain region-specific manner

    Yang He, Taohui Liu ... Bo Peng
    Microglia differentially modulate the neuronal activities via P2Y12 and its downstream Ca2+ signaling in a brain region-specific manner, which facilitates and stabilizes the response to general anesthesia.
