Mapping cis- and trans-regulatory target genes of human-specific deletions

Kavli Affiliate: Alex Pollen | Authors: Tyler Fair, Bryan J Pavlovic, Dani Swope, Octavio E Castillo, Nathan K Schaefer and Alex Aaron Pollen | Summary: Deletion of functional sequence is predicted to represent a fundamental mechanism of molecular evolution. Comparative genetic studies of primates have identified thousands of human-specific deletions (hDels), and the cis-regulatory potential […]

Genome Organization with CUT and Tag (GO-CaT) identifies substructure and maturation of lamina-associated domains in neurons of the developing human brain

Kavli Affiliate: Arnold R. Kriegstein | Authors: Chujing Zhang, Eugene Gil, Sajad Hamid Ahanger, Mingcong Li, Li Wang, Jingjing Li, Arnold Kriegstein and Daniel Lim | Summary: Approximately 30-40% of the human genome is anchored to the nuclear lamina through variably sized (10 kb–10 Mb) lamina-associated domains (LADs). Previous work in cultured murine and human […]

Inhibition of Indirect Pathway Activity Causes Abnormal Decision-Making In a Mouse Model of Impulse Control Disorder in Parkinson’s Disease

Kavli Affiliate: Alexandra Nelson | Authors: Xiaowen Zhuang, Julia Lemak, Sadhana Sridhar and Alexandra B Nelson | Summary: Summary: Healthy action selection relies on the coordinated activity of striatal direct and indirect pathway neurons. In Parkinson’s disease (PD), in which loss of midbrain dopamine neurons is associated with progressive motor and cognitive deficits, this coordination […]

Striatal lateral inhibition regulates action selection in a mouse model of levodopa-induced dyskinesia

Kavli Affiliate: Alexandra Nelson | Authors: Emily L Twedell, Chloe J Bair-Marshall, Allison E Girasole, Lara K Scaria, Sadhana Sridhar and Alexandra B Nelson | Summary: Summary: Striatal medium spiny neurons (MSNs) integrate multiple external inputs to shape motor output. In addition, MSNs form local inhibitory synaptic connections with one another. The function of striatal […]
