EPHA4 pathway dysfunction causes axon pathfinding defects, resulting in impaired coordinated left-right locomotion by disrupting neural patterning and the function of central pattern generators, ...

New research finds old age likely impacts the habitual tool-use behaviours of some wild chimpanzees, and the extent to which different individuals are affected is highly variable.

A new study details an efficient and scalable method to generate human inner ear hair-like cells in the lab, potentially offering a new tool for hearing loss research.

This article presents valuable findings on how the timing of cooling affects the timing of autumn bud set in European beech saplings. The study leverages extensive experimental data and provides an ...

This paper undertakes an important investigation to determine whether movement slowing in microgravity is due to a strategic conservative approach or rather due to an underestimation of the mass of ...

Nature is marked not only by struggles for survival, but also by remarkable feats of cooperation. From microbes to insects to humans, organisms work together in a variety of ways to gather and share ...

CRISPR construct to genetically ablate the GABA transporter GAT3 in the mouse visual cortex, with effects on population-level neuronal activity. This work is important, as it sheds light on how GAT3 ...

The authors proposed two hypotheses: first, that methamphetamine induces neuroinflammation, and second, that it alters neuronal stem cell differentiation. These are valuable hypotheses, and the ...

Characterization of intracellular synapse heterogeneity aides to understand the intricate computational logic of neuronal circuits. Despite recent advances in connectomics, the spatial patterns of ...

Two lateral striatal subregions integrate the acquisition of stimulus-based decision-making in spatiotemporally and functionally different manners, challenging the prior model through a dominance ...

The authors investigated the potential role of IgG N-glycosylation in Haemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome (HFRS), which may offer significant insights for understanding molecular mechanisms and for ...

Parasitic tapeworm larvae release glutamate and other excitatory molecules that can directly excite brain neurons.
