Descending pathways increase sensory neural response heterogeneity to facilitate decoding and behavior

iScience, 2023
Summary: The functional role of heterogeneous spiking responses of otherwise similarly tuned neurons to stimulation, which has been observed ubiquitously, remains unclear to date.

Corticosterone antagonist or TrkB agonist attenuates schizophrenia-like behavior in a mouse model combining Bdnf-e6 deficiency and developmental stress

iScience, 2022
Summary: While schizophrenia pathogenesis involves both genetic and environmental factors, their specific combinations remain ill-defined. Here we show that deficiency in promoter VI-driven BDNF expression, combined with early-life adversity, results in ...

Higher oxytocin concentrations occur in subjects who build affiliative relationships with companion robots

iScience, 2023
Summary: Building affiliative relationships with others is important for mental health. Recently, robots have been expected to play a role in improving mental health, but there is little scientific evidence as to whether they can build affiliative ...

Curation of microarray oligonucleotides and corresponding ESTs/cDNAs used for gene expression analysis in zebra finches

BMC Research Notes, 2018
Objectives Zebra finches are a major model organism for investigating mechanisms of vocal learning, a trait that enables spoken language in humans. The development of cDNA collections with expressed sequence tags (ESTs) and microarrays has allowed for ...

Drosophila Aversive Behavior toward Erwinia carotovora carotovora Is Mediated by Bitter Neurons and Leukokinin

iScience, 2020
Summary: The phytopathogen Erwinia carotovora carotovora (Ecc) has been used successfully to decipher some of the mechanisms that regulate the interactions between Drosophila melanogaster and bacteria, mostly following forced association between the two ...

Event segmentation reveals working memory forgetting rate

iScience, 2022
Summary: We encounter the world as a continuous flow and effortlessly segment sequences of events into episodes. This process of event segmentation engages working memory (WM) for tracking the flow of events and impacts subsequent memory accuracy.

How and when EEG reflects changes in neuronal connectivity due to time awake

iScience, 2023
Summary: Being awake means forming new memories, primarily by strengthening neuronal synapses. The increase in synaptic strength results in increasing neuronal synchronicity, which should result in higher amplitude electroencephalography (EEG ...
