Both genetic and pharmacological studies reveal an essential role for the CRF1 receptor in social behavior deficits induced by a single morphine administration in male, but not in female, mice.
Gut microbiota from young mice can alleviate gout and hyperuricemia in aged mice, further revealing that the metabolic product butyrate derived from the gut microbiota exerts similar therapeutic effects.

A mechanistic model based on the interaction of activity-independent cues from potential synaptic partners and local activity-dependent synaptic plasticity generates growing dendritic morphologies and non-random synaptic organization during development.
Smad and Schnurri transcription factors engage in context-dependent interactions as well as independent genomic activities, leading to regulation of collagen secretion to mediate body size regulation in C. elegans.
