Increased functional integration of emotional control network in late adulthood

Kavli Affiliate: Maryam Ziaei | Authors: Leona R Baetz, Shuer Ye, Xiaqing Lan and Maryam Ziaei | Summary: Across the adult lifespan, there are changes in how emotions are perceived and regulated. As individuals age, there is an observed improvement in emotion regulation and overall quicker recovery from negative emotions. While previous studies have shown […]

Cilia-mediated cerebrospinal fluid flow modulates neuronal and astroglial activity in the zebrafish larval brain

Kavli Affiliate: Emre Yaksi | Authors: Percival P D’Gama, Inyoung Jeong, Andreas Moe Nygard, Ahmed Jamali, Emre Yaksi and Nathalie Jurisch-Yaksi | Summary: The brain uses a specialized system to transport cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). This system consists of interconnected ventricles lined by ependymal cells, which generate a directional flow upon beating of their motile cilia. […]

Resilience-driven neural synchrony during naturalistic movie watching: an ultra-high field fMRI study

Kavli Affiliate: Maryam Ziaei | Authors: Shuer Ye, Leona Rahel Batz, Jain Jain, Alireza Salami and Maryam Ziaei | Summary: Sharing others’ emotional states may facilitate the understanding of their well-being characteristics, such as resilience. Despite increasing attention given to resilience for its role in maintaining mental health, the intricacies of its underlying neural correlates […]

Association cortical areas in the mouse contain a large population of fast-spiking GABAergic neurons that do not express parvalbumin

Kavli Affiliate: Menno Witter and Maximiliano Jose Nigro | Authors: Erik J Courcelles, Kasper Kjelsberg, Laura Convertino, Rajeevkumar Raveendran Nair, Menno P Witter and Maximiliano J Nigro | Summary: GABAergic neurons represent 10-15% of the neuronal population of the cortex but exert a powerful control over information flow in cortical circuits. The largest GABAergic class […]

Loss of cilia after neurulation impacts brain development and neuronal activity in larval zebrafish

Kavli Affiliate: Emre Yaksi | Authors: Percival P D’Gama, Inyoung Jeong, Andreas M Nygaard, Anh-Tuan Trinh, Emre Yaksi and Nathalie Jurisch-Yaksi | Summary: Cilia are slender, hair-like structures extending from cell surfaces and playing essential roles in diverse physiological processes. Within the nervous system, primary cilia contribute to signaling and sensory perception, while motile cilia […]
