Evolutionary Theory in Cognitive Neuroscience: A 20-Year Quantitative Review of Publication Trends
Evolutionary Psychology, 2007 Evolutionary cognitive neuroscience is an emerging and promising new scientific field that combines the meta-theoretical strengths of an evolutionary perspective with the methodological rigor of neuroscience.

Asian Journal of Social Psychology, 2010 Cultural neuroscience issues from the apparently incompatible combination of neuroscience and cultural psychology. A brief literature sampling suggests, instead, several preliminary topics that demonstrate proof of possibilities: cultural differences in both lower‐level processes (e.g. perception, number representation) and higher‐order processes (e.g.

iScience, 2019 Summary: Haploinsufficiency of the SHANK3 gene is causally linked to autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) in human genetic studies. Here we found that chemogenetic activation of pyramidal neurons in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) of Shank3-deficient mice with ...

Systematic Identification of Cell-Cell Communication Networks in the Developing Brain
iScience, 2019 Summary: Since the generation of cell-type specific knockout models, the importance of inter-cellular communication between neural, vascular, and microglial cells during neural development has been increasingly appreciated.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Angiotensin II (AngII), a neuropeptide, interacts with amyloid‐β (Aβ), a key player in Alzheimer's disease. This study reveals that AngII reduces Aβ aggregation and membrane disruption in vitro. Biophysical assays and molecular modeling suggest AngII binds disordered Aβ forms, potentially modulating early amyloidogenic events and contributing to ...

A Cre‐dependent lentiviral vector for neuron subtype‐specific expression of large proteins
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We designed a versatile and modular lentivector comprising a Cre‐dependent switch and self‐cleaving 2A peptide and tested it for co‐expression of GFP and a 2.8 kb gene of interest (GOI) in mouse cortical parvalbumin (PV+) interneurons and midbrain dopamine (TH+) neurons.

Editorial: Topological Neuroscience [PDF]
Network Neuroscience, 2019 Topology, in its many forms, describes relations. It has thus long been a central concept in neuroscience, capturing structural and functional aspects of the organization of the nervous system and their links to cognition. Recent advances in computational topology have extended the breadth and depth of topological descriptions.

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...
