Transduction catalysis: Doxorubicin amplifies rAAV-mediated gene expression in the cortex of higher-order vertebrates

open access: yesiScience, 2021
Summary: Rapid and efficient gene transduction via recombinant adeno-associated viruses (rAAVs) is highly desirable across many basic and clinical research domains.

The temporal pattern of synaptic activation determines the longevity of structural plasticity at dendritic spines

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Summary: Learning is thought to involve physiological and structural changes at individual synapses. Synaptic plasticity has predominantly been studied using regular stimulation patterns, but neuronal activity in the brain normally follows a Poisson ...

The emergence of molecular systems neuroscience [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Brain, 2022
AbstractSystems neuroscience is focused on how ensemble properties in the brain, such as the activity of neuronal circuits, gives rise to internal brain states and behavior. Many of the studies in this field have traditionally involved electrophysiological recordings and computational approaches that attempt to decode how the brain transforms inputs ...

m6A regulation of cortical and retinal neurogenesis is mediated by the redundant m6A readers YTHDFs

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: m6A modification plays an important role in regulating mammalian neurogenesis. However, whether and how the major cytoplasmic m6A readers, YTHDF1, YTHDF2, and YTHDF3 mediate this process is still not clear.

Structural basis for SARM1 inhibition and activation under energetic stress

open access: yeseLife, 2020
SARM1, an executor of axonal degeneration, displays NADase activity that depletes the key cellular metabolite, NAD+, in response to nerve injury. The basis of SARM1 inhibition and its activation under stress conditions are still unknown. Here, we present

Mu-opioid receptor selective superagonists produce prolonged respiratory depression

open access: yesiScience, 2023
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 ...

Gain control in molecular information processing: Lessons from neuroscience [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Statistical properties of environments experienced by biological signaling systems in the real world change, which necessitate adaptive responses to achieve high fidelity information transmission. One form of such adaptive response is gain control.

Chemogenetic Activation of Prefrontal Cortex in Shank3-Deficient Mice Ameliorates Social Deficits, NMDAR Hypofunction, and Sgk2 Downregulation

open access: yesiScience, 2019
Summary: Haploinsufficiency of the SHANK3 gene is causally linked to autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) in human genetic studies. Here we found that chemogenetic activation of pyramidal neurons in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) of Shank3-deficient mice with ...

The Dichotomous Role of Extracellular Vesicles in the Central Nervous System

open access: yesiScience, 2020
Summary: Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are important mediators of intercellular communication. Interest in the role of central nervous system (CNS)-derived EVs has been increasing; however, some skepticism of their importance has persisted because many ...
