Adolescent oligodendrogenesis and myelination restrict experience-dependent neuronal plasticity in adult visual cortex

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Stryker | Authors: Wendy Xin, Megumi Kaneko, Richard H Roth, Albert Zhang, Sonia Nocera, Jun B Ding, Michael P Stryker and Jonah R Chan | Summary: BACKGROUND: Developmental myelination is a protracted process in the mammalian brain. One theory for why oligodendrocytes mature so slowly posits that myelination may stabilize neuronal circuits […]

Unsupervised pattern discovery in spatial gene expression atlas reveals mouse brain regions beyond established ontology

Kavli Affiliate: Reza Abbasi Asl | Authors: Robert Cahill, Yu Wang, Alex Lee, Hongkui Zeng, Bin Yu, Bosiljka Tasic and Reza Abbasi-Asl | Summary: The growth of large-scale spatial gene expression data requires new computational tools to extract major trends in gene expression in their native spatial context. Here, we describe an unsupervised and interpretable […]

Predicting Long and Short Duration Beta Bursts from Subthalamic Nucleus Local Field Potential Activity in Parkinson’s Disease

Kavli Affiliate: Philip Starr | Authors: Bahman Abdi-Sargezeh, Sepehr Shirani, Abhinav Sharma, Philip Starr, Simon Little and Ashwini Oswal | Summary: Neural activities within the beta frequency range (13-30 Hz) are not stationary, but occur in transient packets known as beta bursts. Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterized by the occurrence of beta bursts of increased […]

Structural basis of TRPV1 modulation by endogenous bioactive lipids

Kavli Affiliate: Yifan Cheng | Authors: William Randall Arnold, Adamo S Mancino, Frank R Moss III, Adam Frost, David Julius and Yifan Cheng | Summary: TRP ion channels are modulated by phosphoinositide lipids, but the underlying structural mechanisms remain unclear. The capsaicin- and heat-activated receptor, TRPV1, has served as a model for deciphering lipid modulation, […]

Ventromedial Prefrontal Cortex and Basolateral Amygdala Projections to Ventromedial Striatum Encode Active Avoidance Behavior

Kavli Affiliate: Lisa Gunaydin | Authors: Teagan E Bullock and Lisa A. Gunaydin | Summary: Active avoidance is a fundamental defensive behavior, defined as performing a voluntary action to escape a noxious stimulus. Active avoidance serves as an adaptive response to threat, ensuring safety. In individuals with anxiety disorders and post-traumatic stress disorder, avoidance behavior […]
