Single-cell transcriptomic evidence for dense intracortical neuropeptide networks

bioRxiv, 2019
Seeking new insights into the homeostasis, modulation and plasticity of cortical synaptic networks, we have analyzed results from a single-cell RNA-seq study of 22,439 mouse neocortical neurons.

The Evolution and Diversity of SALMFamide Neuropeptides [PDF]

, 2013
The SALMFamides are a family of neuropeptides that act as muscle relaxants in echinoderms. Two types of SALMFamides have been identified: L-type (e.g.

Fear, love, and the origins of canid domestication: An oxytocin hypothesis

Comprehensive Psychoneuroendocrinology, 2022
The process of dog domestication likely involved at least two functional stages. The initial stage occurred when subpopulations of wolves became synanthropes, benefiting from life nearby or in human environments. The second phase was characterized by the

A tool kit of highly selective and sensitive genetically encoded neuropeptide sensors

Science, 2023
Neuropeptides are key signaling molecules in the endocrine and nervous systems that regulate many critical physiological processes. Understanding the functions of neuropeptides in vivo requires the ability to monitor their dynamics with high specificity,

Oxytocinergic Feedback Circuitries: An Anatomical Basis for Neuromodulation of Social Behaviors

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2021
Oxytocin (OT) is a neuropeptide produced by hypothalamic neurons and is known to modulate social behavior among other functions. Several experiments have shown that OT modulates neuronal activity in many brain areas, including sensory cortices.

Neuropeptide System Regulation of Prefrontal Cortex Circuitry: Implications for Neuropsychiatric Disorders

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2022
Neuropeptides, a diverse class of signaling molecules in the nervous system, modulate various biological effects including membrane excitability, synaptic transmission and synaptogenesis, gene expression, and glial cell architecture and function. To date,

Experience-dependent flexibility in a molecularly diverse central-to-peripheral auditory feedback system

eLife, 2023
Brainstem olivocochlear neurons (OCNs) modulate the earliest stages of auditory processing through feedback projections to the cochlea and have been shown to influence hearing and protect the ear from sound-induced damage.

Efficiency of cell-type specific and generic promoters in transducing oxytocin neurons and monitoring their neural activity during lactation

Scientific Reports, 2021
Hypothalamic oxytocin (OXT) and arginine-vasopressin (AVP) neurons have been at the center of several physiological and behavioral studies. Advances in viral vector biology and the development of transgenic rodent models have allowed for targeted gene ...
