Near‐Infrared‐Responsive Rare Earth Nanoparticles for Optical Imaging and Wireless Phototherapy
In this review, the authors focus on rare earth nanoparticles (RENPs) as media for light conversion and discuss the photoconversion process under near‐infrared (NIR) excitation, as well as recent achievements in optical imaging, photothermal therapy, photodynamic therapy, photoimmunotherapy, optogenetics, and light‐responsive drug release. Finally, the

Circuit-based interrogation of sleep control. [PDF]
Sleep is a fundamental biological process observed widely in the animal kingdom, but the neural circuits generating sleep remain poorly understood. Understanding the brain mechanisms controlling sleep requires the identification of key neurons in the ...

During sleep caudal and rostral subpopulations of the TRN exert diverse activities. Silencing of the rostral TRN elongates sleep episodes, while silencing of the caudal TRN fragments sleep. Silencing of both TRN areas is associated with changes in delta and alpha oscillations.

Bioelectricity regulates key life processes, including cell proliferation, migration, and mutation. Cancer cells are known to exhibit different electrical properties compared to their healthy counterparts. However, this information is yet to be fully unfolded due to the complexity of such signals.

A dopaminergic switch for fear to safety transitions [PDF]
Overcoming aversive emotional memories requires neural systems that detect when fear responses are no longer appropriate. The midbrain ventral tegmental area (VTA) dopamine system has been implicated in reward and more broadly in signalling when a better

Optogenética y posibles terapias para la retinosis pigmentaria [PDF]
La retinosis pigmentaria (RP) es un grupo clínico y genéticamente heterogéneo de trastornos de la retina hereditarios caracterizados por una disfunción progresiva difusa de fotorreceptores predominantemente bastón, con la posterior degeneración de ...

Evolution of optogenetic microdevices
Implementation of optogenetic techniques is a recent addition to the neuroscientists\u27 preclinical research arsenal, helping to expose the intricate connectivity of the brain and allowing for on-demand direct modulation of specific neural pathways ...

We examined the role of the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) in reward processing and the control of consummatory behavior. Rats were trained in an operant licking procedure in which they received alternating access to solutions with relatively high and ...

In the mouse spinal cord, V1 interneurons are a heterogeneous population of inhibitory spinal interneurons that have been implicated in regulating the frequency of the locomotor rhythm and in organizing flexor and extensor alternation.

Acute silencing of hippocampal CA3 reveals a dominant role in place field responses. [PDF]
Neurons in hippocampal output area CA1 are thought to exhibit redundancy across cortical and hippocampal inputs. Here we show instead that acute silencing of CA3 terminals drastically reduces place field responses for many CA1 neurons, while a smaller ...
