Study reveals a motif on the 93-series compound fits into a tiny pocket within the NMDA receptor. The findings could lead to new treatment options for stroke and seizures, researchers report.
Researchers have improved retrograde virus tracing to better reconstruct neural circuits in rats and mice.
Researchers have identified a specific circuit in the brain's central amygdala that raises anxiety levels. The study could pave the way for the development of new treatments for anxiety disorders.
CSHL researchers document how neuroblasts make their journey through the rostral migratory stream to their target destination in the olfactory bulb.
Researchers report conventional understanding of fear learning may be incorrect. Contrary to popular thought, the central amygdala, and not the lateral amygdala may be the seat of aversive learning.
A multiyear study reveals, contrary to expectations, numbers and ratios of three major inhibitory cell types vary stereo-typically across different cortical parts. Additionally, researchers identified 11 subcortical areas with gender specific differences in mice.
A new Cell study reports on the molecular-genetic basis of neural cell types. The study reports families of gene encoding proteins involved in neurotransmission define neurons by determining which cells they connect to and how they communicate.
Researchers track the connectivity patterns of chandelier cells.
