Single-neuron perturbations reveal feature-specific competition in V1
The computations performed by local neural populations, such as a cortical layer, are typically inferred from anatomical connectivity and observations of neural activity.

Sumoylation regulates the assembly and activity of the SMN complex
Sumoylation is important for the assembly and function of the SMN complex, which plays a central role in RNA processing. Here the authors show that loss of this posttranslational modification impairs the ability of SMN to correct selective deficits in ...

Introduction N-Methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) play a critical role in different forms of plasticity in the central nervous system. NMDARs are always assembled in tetrameric form, in which two GluN1 subunits and two GluN2 and/or GluN3 subunits ...

Redox dysregulation as a driver for DNA damage and its relationship to neurodegenerative diseases
Redox homeostasis refers to the balance between the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) as well as reactive nitrogen species (RNS), and their elimination by antioxidants. It is linked to all important cellular activities and oxidative stress is a

Human neocortical expansion involves glutamatergic neuron diversification
The neocortex is disproportionately expanded in human compared with mouse1,2, both in its total volume relative to subcortical structures and in the proportion occupied by supragranular layers composed of neurons that selectively make connections within ...

NISP: Pruning Networks Using Neuron Importance Score Propagation [PDF]
To reduce the significant redundancy in deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), most existing methods prune neurons by only considering the statistics of an individual layer or two consecutive layers (e.g., prune one layer to minimize the ...

Intrinsic functional neuron-type selectivity of transcranial focused ultrasound neuromodulation
Transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) is a promising neuromodulation technique, but its mechanisms remain unclear. We hypothesize that if tFUS parameters exhibit distinct modulation effects in different neuron populations, then the mechanism can be ...

Opinion: more mouse models and more translation needed for ALS
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a complex disorder most of which is ‘sporadic’ of unknown origin but approximately 10% is familial, arising from single mutations in any of more than 30 genes.
