Mechanisms of alcohol influence on fear conditioning: A computational model
Computational models can test mechanistic relationships between fear conditioning, neuroadaptations, and alcohol. Simulated fear extinction is slower and less robust under alcohol, as greater basolateral amygdala activation is needed. Alcohol shifts the amygdala network away from robust extinction by inhibiting central amygdala activity.

Prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) and early‐life adversity (ELA) independently and interactively disrupted neural activity within the social behavior network in adolescent rats, with age‐ and sex‐specific effects. PAE primarily dampened amygdala activity, while ELA altered medial prefrontal cortex responses. These findings reveal how different early‐life

This study aimed to develop and characterize an in vitro human PNEC model and investigated the neuroendocrine response to HDM extract. Exposure to HDM leads to dose‐dependent induction of the CGRP encoding gene, CALCB, and corresponding release of the neuropeptide.

La femme fait la maison: The Accumulation of Surplus Value through Family Planning in Burkina Faso1
Abstract Since the 1960s, demographers, international donors, and governments have calculated the political, economic, and social benefits of modern contraception usage in West Africa. We evidence how family planning technologies (FPTs) that are tethered to population development extract double value (productive and reproductive labour) from Burkinabè ...

Molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying gyrate atrophy: Why is the retina primarily affected?
Abstract Gyrate atrophy of the choroid and retina (GACR; OMIM #258870) is a rare early‐onset autosomal recessive disorder, caused by bi‐allelic pathogenic variants in the gene coding for ornithine aminotransferase (OAT) resulting in hyperornithinaemia.
