Reflections on the past two decades of neuroscience [PDF]
The first issue of Nature Reviews Neuroscience was published 20 years ago, in 2000. To mark this anniversary, in this Viewpoint article we asked a selection of researchers from across the field who have authored pieces published in the journal in recent ...

Mu-opioid receptor selective superagonists produce prolonged respiratory depression
Summary: Synthetic opioids are increasingly challenging to combat the opioid epidemic and act primarily at opioid receptors, chiefly the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) μ-opioid receptor (MOR), which signals through G protein-dependent and β-arrestin ...

Casein kinase 1α is required to maintain murine hypothalamic pro-opiomelanocortin expression
Summary: Hypothalamic pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) neuron development is considered to play an essential role in the development of obesity. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear.

Multiscale Neuroscience of Psychiatric Disorders [PDF]
The human brain comprises a multiscale network with multiple levels of organization. Neurons with dendritic and axonal connections form the microscale fabric of brain circuitry, and macroscale brain regions and white matter connections form the ...

Statistical power in network neuroscience [PDF]
Network neuroscience has emerged as a leading method to study brain connectivity. The success of these investigations is dependent not only on approaches to accurately map connectivity but also on the ability to detect real effects in the data - that is,

Antidepressant Effects of (S)-Ketamine through a Reduction of Hyperpolarization-Activated Current Ih
Summary: Compelling evidence suggests that a single sub-anesthetic dose of (R,S)-ketamine exerts rapid and robust antidepressant effects. However, the cellular mechanisms underlying the antidepressant effects of (R,S)-ketamine remain unclear.

Hyperexcitable Parvalbumin Interneurons Render Hippocampal Circuitry Vulnerable to Amyloid Beta
Summary: Parvalbumin (PV) interneuron dysfunction is associated with various brain disorders, including Alzheimer disease (AD). Here, we asked whether early PV neuron hyperexcitability primes the hippocampus for amyloid beta-induced functional impairment.
