A GABAergic projection from the zona incerta to cortex promotes cortical neuron development
Circuits for brain building The brain is made up of circuits. Chen and Kriegstein analyzed how one particular circuit functions differently in developing and mature mouse brains (see the Perspective by Spitzer).

Abstract Background Mutations in the gene DISC1 are associated with increased risk for schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and major depression. The study of mutated DISC1 represents a well-known and comprehensively characterized approach to understand neuropsychiatric disease mechanisms.

Excitatory neuron-prone prion propagation and excitatory neuronal loss in prion-infected mice
The accumulation of a disease-specific isoform of prion protein (PrPSc) and histopathological lesions, such as neuronal loss, are unevenly distributed in the brains of humans and animals affected with prion diseases. This distribution varies depending on

Striatal function scrutinized through the PAN-TAN-FSI triumvirate
Understanding the information encoded by distinct components of the neuronal circuitry in the striatum represents an avenue for elucidating the role of this subcortical region in adaptive behavior and its dysfunction in pathological conditions.

Transcriptomic insights into fate choice of pallial versus subpallial GABAergic neurons
The activity of the telencephalon is shaped by pallial and subpallial GABAergic neurons, two large populations produced in the embryonic ganglionic eminence.

ABSTRACT Identifying the neural circuits engaged and reshaped by chronic stress is critical for understanding how adaptive responses shift to maladaptive behaviors that contribute to stress-related disorders. Our previous work demonstrates that chronic unpredictable stress (CUS) induces a persistent increase in the ...

Emotional disorders, such as anxiety and depression, represent a major societal problem; however, the underlying neurological mechanism remains unknown. The ventral lateral septum (LSv) is implicated in regulating processes related to mood and motivation.
