Inhibition of the medial amygdala disrupts escalated aggression in lactating female mice after repeated exposure to male intruders [PDF]
Communications Biology, 2022 The onset of maternal aggression in mice is dependent on physiological changes that occur during pregnancy and lactation, and the medial amygdala is key in the expression of escalated aggression induced by repeated testing.

Early life stress exacerbates behavioural and neuronal alterations in adolescent male mice lacking methyl-CpG binding protein 2 (Mecp2) [PDF]
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2022 The methyl-CpG binding protein 2 gene (MECP2) encodes an epigenetic transcriptional regulator implicated in neuronal plasticity. Loss-of-function mutations in this gene are the primary cause of Rett syndrome and, to a lesser degree, of other ...

The Rat Mammary Gland as a Novel Site of Expression of Melanin-Concentrating Hormone Receptor 1 mRNA and Its Protein Immunoreactivity [PDF]
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2020 Lactation is a complex physiological process, depending on orchestrated central and peripheral events, including substantial brain plasticity. Among these events is a novel expression of pro-melanin-concentrating hormone (Pmch) mRNA in the rodent ...

Principles for Dendritic Spine Size and Density in Human and Mouse Cortical Pyramidal Neurons. [PDF]
J Comp NeurolThe main building blocks of the cerebral cortex, the pyramidal neurons, show characteristic spine morphologies across brain regions and species, although there does appear to be a conserved cortical dendritic spine size‐density balance. ABSTRACT Dendritic spines of pyramidal neurons are the targets of most excitatory synapses in the cerebral cortex ...
