Every year in the United States, an estimated 500,000 babies are born preterm (before 37
completed weeks of gestation), and this number is rising, along with the recognition of brain …

The human cerebellum has a protracted developmental timeline compared with the neocortex,
expanding the window of vulnerability to neurological disorders. As the cerebellum is …

Large-scale underground storage of hydrogen gas is expected to play a key role in the energy
transition and in near future renewable energy systems. Despite this potential, experience …

Hydrogen stored on a large scale in porous rocks helps alleviate the main drawbacks of
intermittent renewable energy generation and will play a significant role as a fuel substitute to …

Heterozygosity for C1 inhibitor (C1INH) deficiency results in hereditary angioedema.
Disruption of the C1INH gene by gene trapping enabled the generation of homozygous- and …

There are no clinically relevant treatments available that improve function in the growing
population of very preterm infants (less than 32 weeks’ gestation) with neonatal brain injury. …

Long-term potentiation (LTP) is a cellular model for persistent synaptic plasticity in the
mammalian brain. Like several forms of memory, long-lasting LTP requires cAMP-mediated …

Diffuse white matter injury (DWMI), a leading cause of neurodevelopmental disabilities in
preterm infants, is characterized by reduced oligodendrocyte formation. NG2-expressing …

In order to stabilize changes in synaptic strength, neurons activate a program of gene
expression that results in alterations of their molecular composition and structure. Here we …

We found that, during the formation of the mouse barrel cortex, NG2 cells received
glutamatergic synapses from thalamocortical fibers and preferentially accumulated along septa …
