GABAergic signaling by VIP interneurons gates running-dependent visual recovery in the adult brain

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Stryker | Authors: Anna Lebedeva, Friedrich Kling, Benjamin Rakela, Michael P Stryker and Yujiao Jennifer Sun | Summary: Experience-dependent plasticity in the adult visual cortex is enhanced by locomotion, a process mediated by vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP)-expressing interneurons. While VIP interneurons are known to signal through both Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and VIP […]

Shared and distinct cortical mechanisms for working memory and decision-making.

Kavli Affiliate: Daeyeol Lee | Authors: Hyojung Seo, Daeyeol Lee and Shanna K Murray | Summary: The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and lateral intraparietal cortex (LIP) in the primate brain are critically involved in working memory during tasks that require the retention of information over a delay. These same regions have also been implicated in […]

Macroscopic Analyses of RNA-Seq Data to Reveal Chromatin Modifications in Aging and Disease

Kavli Affiliate: Hana El-Samad | Authors: Achal Mahajan, Francesca Ratti, Ban Wang, Hana El-Samad, James H. Kaufman and Vishrawas Gopalakrishnan | Summary: Regulation of gene expression is fundamental for proper cellular function, and is constrained by the local chromatin environment of each gene, which varies spatially along the chromosome and is shaped by epigenetic modifications.
