Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Models wagging the dog: are circuits constructed with disparate parameters? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In a recent article, Prinz, Bucher, and Marder (2004) addressed the fundamental question of whether neural systems are built with a fixed blueprint of tightly controlled parameters or in a way in which properties can vary largely from one individual to ...

Vertebrate versus invertebrate neural circuits [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2013
SummaryThe recent Cell Symposium ‘Genes, Circuits and Behavior’ brought together researchers working on neural circuits in vertebrate and invertebrate species. In the interest of fostering communication across the ‘backbone-divide’, we asked a number of neuroscientists from both camps for their views on the extent to which insights obtained from ...

History-based action selection bias in posterior parietal cortex

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Past outcomes modulate activity in a diverse set of brain regions however their precise influence on decisions is not known. Here the authors show that posterior parietal cortex neurons encode history-related signals between trials and optogenetic ...

Linking neurogenesis, oligodendrogenesis, and myelination defects to neurodevelopmental disruption in primary mitochondrial disorders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mitochondrial remodeling shapes neural and glial lineage progression by matching metabolic supply with demand. Elevated OXPHOS supports differentiation and myelin formation, while myelin compaction lowers mitochondrial dependence, revealing mitochondria as key drivers of developmental energy adaptation.

Context-dependent serotonin signaling links dietary quality to foraging decisions

open access: yesNature Communications
Animals sense their metabolic needs to guide adaptive behaviors partly through serotonin, a neurotransmitter associated with feeding in many species.

Stimulation of protein synthesis by optogenetic and chemical induction of excitatory synaptic plasticity in hippocampal somatostatin interneurons

open access: yesMolecular Brain, 2022
Somatostatin-expressing interneurons (SOM-INs) are a major subpopulation of GABAergic cells in CA1 hippocampus that receive excitation from pyramidal cells (PCs) and provide feedback control of synaptic inputs onto PC dendrites.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

TrakEM2 Software for Neural Circuit Reconstruction

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
A key challenge in neuroscience is the expeditious reconstruction of neuronal circuits. For model systems such as Drosophila and C. elegans, the limiting step is no longer the acquisition of imagery but the extraction of the circuit from images. For this purpose, we designed a software application, TrakEM2, that addresses the systematic reconstruction ...
