Examining the biological causes of eating disorders to inform treatment strategies
Examining the biological causes of eating disorders to inform treatment strategies
Despite their prevalence, eating disorders (EDs) are under-researched and often misunderstood. A recent focus of research ...
Rethinking excitation/inhibition balance in the human brain
Rethinking excitation/inhibition balance in the human brain
The balance between neural excitation (E) and inhibition (I) shapes cognition, development and brain-based disorders. Elec...
A new myeloid cell migration route
In a mouse model of multiple sclerosis, trafficking into the brain parenchyma of the peripheral myeloid cells that are inv...
A reality check
This study reveals a mechanism through which the brain can determine whether perceptual signals reflect external reality o...
Repulsion in the human hippocampus is linked to internal beliefs
In humans, repulsion effects occur in specific subfields of the hippocampus and are associated with the presence of distin...
Molecular and functional diversity of the autonomic nervous system
Molecular and functional diversity of the autonomic nervous system
The autonomic nervous system (ANS) plays a pivotal role in regulating organ functions through descending brain-to-body sig...
Innate immune control of synapse development
Innate lymphoid cells regulate inhibitory synapse formation in the mouse cortex during early postnatal life.
Structural neural plasticity evoked by rapid-acting antidepressant interventions
Structural neural plasticity evoked by rapid-acting antidepressant interventions
A feature in the pathophysiology of major depressive disorder (MDD), a mood disorder, is the impairment of excita...
Ruminating on replay during the awake state
In this Journal Club, Anna Gillespie discusses how the discovery of hippocampal replay during the awake state reshaped our...
Echolocation over long distances
Bats use echolocation to navigate long distances without relying on other sensory information.
An interoceptive circuit regulating energy balance
Interoceptive, feeding-related inputs are integrated by BDNF-expressing neurons in the ventromedial hypothalamus that proj...
Neural circuit basis of pathological anxiety
Neural circuit basis of pathological anxiety
Anxiety disorders are the most prevalent mental health conditions worldwide. Unfortunately, the understanding of the preci...
Targeting TYK2 to target tau
Studies in human cell lines and transgenic mouse models show that non-receptor tyrosine-protein kinase TYK2 phosphorylates...
Structural MRI of brain similarity networks
Structural MRI of brain similarity networks
Recent advances in structural MRI analytics now allow the network organization of individual brains to be comprehensively ...
Fear bypasses the amygdala
Innate fear-like responses are thought to involve the amygdala, but here a tetra-synaptic pathway is identified that media...
How the brain’s primary processing units compute to give rise to intelligence
Ning-long Xu discusses a 1999 paper that outlined a mechanism by which cortical pyramidal neurons integrate layer-specific...
Barriers and brain fog
One of the long-term sequelae associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection is ‘brain fog’, which is shown in this stud...
Coding corners
Neurons in the mouse subiculum encode concave and convex geometrical environmental features.
mTOR and neuroinflammation in epilepsy: implications for disease progression and treatment
mTOR and neuroinflammation in epilepsy: implications for disease progression and treatment
Epilepsy remains a major health concern as anti-seizure medications frequently fail, and there is currently no treatment t...
Natural primate neurobiology
A new study captures nearly the full repertoire of primate natural behaviour and reveals that highly distributed cortical ...
A structural role for SynGAP
The synaptic protein SynGAP exerts its effects on synaptic plasticity via a structural role rather than its GTPase-activat...
Molecular and cellular mechanisms of selective vulnerability in neurodegenerative diseases
Molecular and cellular mechanisms of selective vulnerability in neurodegenerative diseases
The selective vulnerability of specific neuronal subtypes is a hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases. In this Review, I s...
