Mutations in Parkinsonism-linked endocytic proteins synaptojanin1 and auxilin have synergistic effects on dopaminergic axonal pathology

Kavli Affiliate: Pietro DeCamilli | Authors: Xin Yi Ng, Yumei Wu, Youneng Lin, Sidra Mohamed Yaqoob, Lois E. Greene, Pietro De Camilli and Mian Cao | Summary: Abstract Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by defective dopaminergic (DAergic) input to the striatum. Mutations in two genes encoding synaptically enriched clathrin-uncoating factors, synaptojanin 1 […]

Spatially distributed computation in cortical circuits

Kavli Affiliate: Thomas Albright | Authors: Sergei Gepshtein, Ambarish Pawar, Sunwoo Kwon, Sergey Savel’ev and Thomas D Albright | Summary: The traditional view of neural computation in the cerebral cortex holds that sensory neurons are specialized, i.e., selective for certain dimensions of sensory stimuli. This view was challenged by evidence of contextual interactions between stimulus […]

Loss of functional heterogeneity along the CA3 transverse axis in aging

Kavli Affiliate: Michela Gallagher, James Knierim | Authors: Heekyung Lee, Zitong Wang, Arjuna Tilekeratne, Nick Lukish, Scott Zeger, Michela Gallagher and James J Knierim | Summary: Age-related deficits in pattern separation have been postulated to bias the output of hippocampal memory processing toward pattern completion, which can cause deficits in accurate memory retrieval. While the […]
