Muscarinic agonists for schizophrenia: Bridging preclinical evidence and clinical enthusiasm

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 19, Page 5701-5731, October 2026.
Abstract Antipsychotic drugs targeting dopamine receptors have been used to treat schizophrenia for decades, primarily alleviating positive symptoms such as hallucinations and delusions. However, they provide limited benefit for cognitive and negative symptoms—major contributors to poor outcomes—and are frequently associated with significant side ...

Orientation columns in the mouse superior colliculus

Nature, 2014
More than twenty types of retinal ganglion cells conduct visual information from the eye to the rest of the brain. Each retinal ganglion cell type tessellates the retina in a regular mosaic, so that every point in visual space is processed for visual primitives such as contrast and motion.

PEBP1 Regulates Ferroptosis in Acute Glaucoma: Targeted Therapy Using Engineered Exosomes

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 17, 15 September 2026.
General schematic diagram of Spatial and Single‐Cell Transcriptomics Identifies PEBP1 as a Ferroptosis Mediator in Glaucoma: Targeted Intervention by Engineered Stem Cell Exosomes. ABSTRACT Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide, primarily driven by the progressive loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) under pathological high

A Toolkit for Targeted Neuromodulation of Striatal Direct Pathway Neurons Rescues Parkinsonian Motor Deficits in Mice

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 49, 3 September 2026.
An adeno‐associated virus (AAV) toolkit enables selective anatomical and functional targeting of striatal D1‐MSNs through retrograde transduction. Enhanced capsids and engineered enhancers drive robust transgene expression across murine and primate models.

In vivo Probabilistic Structural Atlas of the Inferior and Superior Colliculi, Medial and Lateral Geniculate Nuclei and Superior Olivary Complex in Humans Based on 7 Tesla MRI

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
Despite extensive neuroimaging research of primary sensory cortices involved in auditory and visual functions, subcortical structures within these domains, such as the inferior and superior colliculi, the medial and lateral geniculate nuclei and the ...

Whole‐Brain Monosynaptic Inputs and Outputs of Corticotropin‐Releasing Hormone Neurons of the Paraventricular Nucleus of the Hypothalamus in Male Mice

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 9, September 2026.
Using rabies‐based monosynaptic retrograde tracing and AAV anterograde labeling, this study maps the brain‐wide inputs and outputs of PVN CRH neurons, identifying them as a key hub coordinating stress, autonomic, and behavioral responses. ABSTRACT Objective The paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN) is a central hub integrating ...

Seeing without a Scene: Neurological Observations on the Origin and Function of the Dorsal Visual Stream

Journal of Intelligence
In all vertebrates, visual signals from each visual field project to the opposite midbrain tectum (called the superior colliculus in mammals). The tectum/colliculus computes visual salience to select targets for context-contingent visually guided ...

Weakening of Subcortical and Strengthening of Cortical Visual Pathways Across Early Adolescence

Human Brain Mapping, Volume 47, Issue 13, September 2026.
Longitudinal diffusion MRI in 4361 adolescents shows weakening of visual subcortical pathways but strengthening of cortical pathways over pubertal development. ABSTRACT Mounting evidence suggests that amygdalar nuclei receive visual information via both a well‐characterized cortical pathway through the inferior temporal cortex and a subcortical route ...

Expression of neuronal nitric oxide synthase in the developing superficial layers of the rat superior colliculus

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2004
We investigated the level of expression of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) in the retinorecipient layers of the rat superior colliculus during early postnatal development. Male and female Lister rats ranging in age between the day of birth (P0) and
