Recent studies suggest that calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) neurons in the parabrachial nucleus (PBN) represent aversive information and signal a general alarm to the forebrain. If CGRP neurons ...

Sensory experience affects the structure of these tree-like neurites, which, it is assumed, modifies neuronal function, yet the evidence is scarce, and the mechanisms are unknown. To study whether ...

Computational pipeline SPICE systematically screens and predicts novel protein-protein binding complexes including the previously unrecognized global association and functional cooperation between ...

High-resolution blood oxygen level-dependent functional magnetic resonance imaging enables brain-wide mapping of activated regions during sensory stimulation in awake mice, including associated areas, ...

This important work substantially advances our understanding of episodic memory by proposing a biologically plausible mechanism through which hippocampal barcode activity enables efficient memory ...

Proliferating animal cells maintain a stable size distribution over generations despite fluctuations in cell growth and division size. Previously, we showed that cell size control involves both cell ...

This is a useful study that adds new data to how different DAG pools influence cellular signaling, and dissects how the enzyme Dip2 modulates the minor lipid signaling DAG pool, which is distinct from ...

The composition of nodes that effectively transmit sinusoidal waves in a model network resembling C. elegans' electrical synapses network changes according to the waves' wavenumber.

Researchers have revealed how parasitic phytoplasmas manipulate plant biology to act as matchmakers, boosting male insect appeal by modulating hosts to attract more reproductive females.

The gene DYRK1A could be a potential therapeutic target to treat ‘glue ear’ in people with Down syndrome, according to a new study.

This systematic review presents valuable insights into CCR5 antagonist drugs for neuroprotection and stroke management. The strength of the evidence is convincing, and the review methods and reporting ...
