    Neural geometry from mixed sensorimotor selectivity for predictive sensorimotor control

    Yiheng Zhang, Yun Chen ... He Cui
    Target motion modulates monkey M1 neural dynamics during reaching, characterized by an orbital neural geometry composed of target-velocity-dependent tilting rings, suggesting that sensory information can be independently incorporated during motor generation.

    GPRC6A as a novel kokumi receptor responsible for enhanced taste preferences by ornithine

    Takashi Yamamoto, Kayoko Ueji ... Shinya Ugawa
    The enhanced taste and flavor of food induced by the addition of L-ornithine, referred to as 'kokumi' in humans, may be mediated by GPRC6A receptors expressed in taste cells.

    The first complete 3D reconstruction and morphofunctional mapping of an insect eye

    Anastasia A Makarova, Nicholas J Chua ... Alexey A Polilov
    Even the smallest compound eyes retain the functional specialization of ommatidia.

    Perceptual and attentional impairments of conscious access involve distinct neural mechanisms despite equal task performance

    Samuel Noorman, Timo Stein ... Simon van Gaal
    When performance is matched, the attentional blink allows for greater integration of complex stimulus features than masking, reflecting spared recurrent processing during attentional versus perceptual impairments of conscious access.

    Untangling stability and gain modulation in cortical circuits with multiple interneuron classes

    Hannah Bos, Christoph Miehl ... Brent Doiron
    In recurrently connected cortical networks with different inhibitory neuron subtypes, circuit modulations can increase neuronal gain without compromising network stability.

    Antagonist actions of CMK-1/CaMKI and TAX-6/calcineurin along the C. elegans thermal avoidance circuit orchestrate adaptation of nociceptive response to repeated stimuli

    Martina Rudgalvyte, Zehan Hu ... Dominique A Glauser
    Phosphoproteomics identifies diverse CaM kinase substrates, while genetic dissection reveals an unexpected antagonistic interaction with calcineurin signaling that operates in distinct neurons to regulate thermo-nociception in Caenorhabditis elegans.

    Olfactory ensheathing cells from adult female rats are hybrid glia that promote neural repair

    Patricia E Phelps, Sung Min Ha ... Xia Yang
    To better understand how olfactory ensheathing cells modify spinal cord injury sites, single-cell RNA-sequencing was used to identify five OEC subtypes, progenitors, and novel genes associated with axonal outgrowth.

    A toolbox for ablating excitatory and inhibitory synapses

    Aida Bareghamyan, Changfeng Deng ... Don B Arnold
    Novel genetically encoded tools PFE3, paGFE3, and chGFE3 can be used to reversibly ablate excitatory synapses constitutively, and inhibitory synapses in a light- or chemically dependent manner.
