This review aims to summarize data obtained with different techniques to provide a functional
map of the local circuit connections made by neocortical neurones, a reference for those …

Chronic stress plays an important role in the development and exacerbation of symptoms in
functional gastrointestinal disorders. To better understand the mechanisms underlying this …

Oxytocin (OT) orchestrates social and emotional behaviors through modulation of neural
circuits. In the central amygdala, the release of OT modulates inhibitory circuits and, thereby, …

Glucose-sensing neurons in the brainstem participate in the regulation of energy homeostasis
but have been poorly characterized because of the lack of specific markers to identify them…

Stress-related psychiatric disorders such as anxiety and depression involve dysfunction of the
serotonin [5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)] system. Previous studies have found that the stress …

Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and serotonin play critical roles in energy balance regulation.
Both systems are exploited clinically as antiobesity strategies. Surprisingly, whether they …

Frontiers | Notch1 Regulates Hippocampal Plasticity Through Interaction with the Reelin
Pathway, Glutamatergic Transmission and CREB Signaling Skip to main content Download …

After a peripheral nerve lesion, distal ends of injured axons disintegrate into small fragments
that are subsequently cleared by Schwann cells and later by macrophages. Axonal debris …

Changes in intracellular Na + concentration underlie essential neurobiological processes,
but few reliable tools exist for their measurement. Here we characterize a new synthetic Na + -…

Ion imaging is a powerful methodology to assess fundamental biological processes in live
cells. The limited efficiency of some ion-sensing probes and their fast leakage from cells are …
