Exposure to ketone bodies in early development can reduce neurological impairments in a strain of the nematode C. elegans with PTEN defects.

Expression pattern analysis of neurotransmitter synthesis, secretion, and reuptake machinery reveals animal-wide usage of neurotransmitters in both sexes of Caenorhabditis elegans.

Comparison between tapping performance of humans during a synchronization task and new metrics that characterize the U-fiber system of white matter revealed large intersubject correlations between phase accuracy at specific tempos and the strength of connectivity in their audiomotor system.

Estimating the organization of supraspinal input to motoneurons in humans is not currently possible, but a promising reverse engineering technique has been developed using large-scale supercomputing and computational neuroscience.

A molecular genetics study reveals an accessory olfactory-to-hypothalamic circuit in mice that optimizes defensive behaviors according to the imminence of predator threats.

Activation of oxytocin (OT) neurons in the paraventricular nucleus or their projections to medial prefrontal cortex or periphery OT administration facilitated pup caring and inhibited infanticide, while inhibitions of these neurons and projections promoted infanticide.

Live imaging at single-vesicle resolution reveals rabphilin-3A as the first identified negative regulator of neuropeptide release in mammalian neurons.

Oxytocin neuron projections from two brain regions involved in parental care regulate both parental care and infanticidal behaviors in virgin mandarin voles.
