Endocannabinoids disinhibit the ventral tegmental nucleus of Gudden to dorsal premammillary nucleus pathway to enhance escape behavior following learned threat experience

Nature Communications
Innate escape behaviors, while not requiring prior learning, are shaped by an animal’s learned experiences, such as previous exposure. Here, we found that learned threat experience in mice enhances flight behaviors, which is linked to increased ...

Therapeutic implications of altered cholesterol homeostasis mediated by loss of CYP46A1 in human glioblastoma

EMBO Molecular Medicine, 2019
Dysregulated cholesterol metabolism is a hallmark of many cancers, including glioblastoma (GBM), but its role in disease progression is not well understood. Here, we identified cholesterol 24‐hydroxylase (CYP46A1), a brain‐specific enzyme responsible for
