Counterbalancing O‐GlcNAcylation and STAT3 Phosphorylation in Ventral Tegmental Area Dopaminergic Neurons Mediates Behavioral Adaptations to Acute Restraint Stress

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Acute restraint stress enhances STAT3Ser727 phosphorylation in dopaminergic neurons in mice. This modification promotes the upregulation of GABBR2 and GABRB3, reduces neuronal activity, and contributes to anxiety‐like behavior and diminished reward‐seeking following stress exposure.

Parvalbumin Interneuron‐Dependent Hippocampal Neurogenesis Evoked by Prolonged Rhythmic Light Flicker

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that prolonged rhythmic 40 Hz light flicker enhances spatial learning by stimulating PV interneuron‐dependent neurogenesis. The light flicker selectively activates PV interneurons, which enhances GABAergic support for the integration of immature neurons in the adult dentate gyrus.

GABA Receptors and the Pharmacology of Sleep

, 2017
Current GABAergic sleep-promoting medications were developed pragmatically, without making use of the immense diversity of GABAA receptors. Pharmacogenetic experiments are leading to an understanding of the circuit mechanisms in the hypothalamus by which zolpidem and similar compounds induce sleep at α2βγ2-type GABAA receptors.

Oxytocin Reduces Subjective Fear in Naturalistic Social Contexts via Enhancing Top‐Down Middle Cingulate Amygdala Regulation and Brain‐Wide Fear Representations

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This double‐blind, placebo‐controlled study demonstrates that intranasal oxytocin reduces subjective fear in immersive, naturalistic social (but not non‐social) contexts. Concomitant fMRI reveals that oxytocin enhances middle cingulate activity and amygdala connectivity while it modulates network‐level connectivity and attenuates reactivity of a brain ...

Activation of Spinal Astrocyte α2A Adrenoceptors Protects Against Sepsis‐Induced Heart Injury Through Inhibition of GABAergic Neuronal Necroptosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The study in this paper found that activating the α2A receptors of astrocytes in the thoracic spinal cord can reduce the release of inflammatory factors, thereby decreasing the necroptosis of GABAergic neurons and consequently alleviating myocardial injury caused by sepsis.

Multiscale Organization of Neural Networks in a 3D Bioprinted Matrix

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A 3D bioprint model of primary neurons has been engineered with a millimeter‐scale functional neural network, and it recapitulates in vivo transcriptomic features under both normal and disease conditions to the greatest extent. The successful integration of mature neurons and 3D bioprinting signifies a major advance in neuroscience modeling ...

Membranes and Synaptosomes Used to Investigate Synaptic GABAergic Currents in Epileptic Patients

Membranes
Among the most prevalent neurological disorders, epilepsy affects about 1% of the population worldwide. We previously found, using human epileptic tissues, that GABAergic neurotransmission impairment is a key mechanism that drives the pathological ...

In Situ Electrically Resettable Field‐Effect Transistor Biosensors for Continuous and Multiplexed Neurotransmitter Detection

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The research team integrated a potentiometrically controlled pH electrode with carbon nanotube (CNT) field‐effect transistor (FET) biosensors on a single chip using compatible processes. By employing zonal modification and optimized pH‐sensitive probes, they achieved simultaneous quadruple‐target detection and tenfold reusability under physiological ...

Huntington's disease leads to decrease of GABA-A tonic subunits in the D2 neostriatal pathway and their relocalization into the synaptic cleft

Neurobiology of Disease, 2018
GABA is a widely distributed inhibitory neurotransmitter. GABA-A receptors are hetero-pentameric channels assembled in multiple combinations from 19 available subunits; this diversity mediates phasic and tonic inhibitory synaptic potentials. Whereas GABA-

Isovaline does not activate GABA(B) receptor-coupled potassium currents in GABA(B) expressing AtT-20 cells and cultured rat hippocampal neurons.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Isovaline is a non-proteinogenic amino acid that has analgesic properties. R-isovaline is a proposed agonist of the γ-aminobutyric acid type B (GABA(B)) receptor in the thalamus and peripheral tissue.
