FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.The K+‐Cl− cotransporters (KCCs) facilitate the symport of ions across the plasma membrane. They participate in physiological processes including neuronal regulation. Here, we characterized KCCs from Drosophila and Hydra vulgaris. Comparative analyses of transporters provide insights into the mechanism of KCC ion transport, regulation, and evolution ...

Smn-Deficiency Increases the Intrinsic Excitability of Motoneurons
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2017 During development, motoneurons experience significant changes in their size and in the number and strength of connections that they receive, which requires adaptive changes in their passive and active electrical properties. Even after reaching maturity,

Mutations in shaking-B prevent electrical synapse formation in the Drosophila giant fiber system [PDF]
, 1996 The giant fiber system (GFS) is a simple network of neurons that mediates visually elicited escape behavior in Drosophila. The giant fiber (GF), the major component of the system, is a large, descending interneuron that relays visual stimuli to the ...

A Role for Dystonia-Associated Genes in Spinal GABAergic Interneuron Circuitry
Cell Reports, 2017 Spinal interneurons are critical modulators of motor circuit function. In the dorsal spinal cord, a set of interneurons called GABApre presynaptically inhibits proprioceptive sensory afferent terminals, thus negatively regulating sensory-motor signaling.

A Novel Approach to Implementing Artificial Thalamic Neurons with Ferroelectric Transistors
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Artificial neurons created using CMOS technology often require a large number of transistors and capacitors. This study introduces an artificial thalamic neuron that employs only five CMOS compatible ferroelectric transistors. The manufactured thalamic neuron demonstrates leaky integrate‐and‐fire‐or‐burst (LIFB) functionalities, featuring self ...
