The role of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) takes center stage among unanswered questions in
modern neuroscience. The PFC has a Janus-faced nature: it enables sophisticated cognitive …

Significant progress has been made in the treatment of spinal cord injury (SCI). Advances in
post-trauma management and intensive rehabilitation have significantly improved the …

We describe automated technologies to probe the structure of neural tissue at nanometer
resolution and use them to generate a saturated reconstruction of a sub-volume of mouse …

Early prenatal inflammatory conditions are thought to be a risk factor for different
neurodevelopmental disorders. Maternal interleukin-6 (IL-6) elevation during pregnancy …

Serotonin (5-HT) shapes brain networks during development and modulates a wide
spectrum of essential neuronal functions ranging from perception and cognitive appraisal to …

Injuries to the adult CNS often result in permanent disabilities because neurons lose the
ability to regenerate their axon during development. Here, whole transcriptome sequencing …

The molecular diversification of cell surface molecules has long been postulated to impart
specific surface identities on neuronal cell types. The existence of unique cell surface …

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are highly abundant and evolutionarily conserved non-coding
RNAs produced by circularization of specific exons. Since their re-discovery as potential …

Perineuronal nets (PNNs) are reticular structures that surround the cell body of many
neurones, and extend along their dendrites. They are considered to be a specialized …

Latrophilins (LPHNs) are a small family of G protein-coupled receptors known to mediate the
massive synaptic exocytosis caused by the black widow spider venom α-latrotoxin, but their …
