Scientific Validation of Human Neurosphere Assays for Developmental Neurotoxicity Evaluation
There is a call for a paradigm shift in developmental neurotoxicity (DNT) evaluation, which demands the implementation of faster, more cost-efficient, and human-relevant test systems than current in vivo guideline studies.

Dendritic action potentials and computation in human layer 2/3 cortical neurons
Human dendrites are special A special developmental program in the human brain drives the disproportionate thickening of cortical layer 2/3. This suggests that the expansion of layer 2/3, along with its numerous neurons and their large dendrites, may ...

nNOS(+) striatal neurons, a subpopulation spared in Huntington's Disease, possess functional NMDA receptors but fail to generate mitochondrial ROS in response to an excitotoxic challenge. [PDF]
Huntington's disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative condition characterized by severe neuronal loss in the cortex and striatum that leads to motor and behavioral deficits.

Single-protein detection in crowded molecular environments in cryo-EM images
We present an approach to study macromolecular assemblies by detecting component proteins’ characteristic high-resolution projection patterns, calculated from their known 3D structures, in single electron cryo-micrographs.

Identifying specific prefrontal neurons that contribute to autism-associated abnormalities in physiology and social behavior. [PDF]
Functional imaging and gene expression studies both implicate the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), particularly deep-layer projection neurons, as a potential locus for autism pathology.

Direct conversion of fibroblasts to functional neurons by defined factors
Cellular differentiation and lineage commitment are considered to be robust and irreversible processes during development. Recent work has shown that mouse and human fibroblasts can be reprogrammed to a pluripotent state with a combination of four ...
