Mitofusin-2 in nucleus accumbens D2-MSNs regulates social dominance and neuronal function

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Bernard Schneider, Jocelin Grosse, Olivia Zanoletti, Simone Astori, Elias Georges Gebara, Marie-Isabelle Guillot de Suduiraut, Alessandro Chioino, Sriparna Ghosal, Eva Ramos Fernandez

The nucleus accumbens (NAc) is a brain hub regulating motivated behaviors, including social competitiveness. Mitochondrial function in the NAc links anxiety with social competitiveness, and the mitochondrial fusion protein mitofusin 2 (Mfn2) in NAc neurons ...

Striatal dopamine explains novelty-induced behavioral dynamics and individual variability in threat prediction

Alexander Mathis, Mackenzie Mathis

Animals both explore and avoid novel objects in the environment, but the neural mechanisms that underlie these behaviors and their dynamics remain uncharacterized. Here, we used multi-point tracking (DeepLabCut) and behavioral segmentation (MoSeq) to chara ...

Genetic selection for low glucocorticoid responsiveness recapitulates PTSD-related phenotypes: a behavioral, neuroimaging and sleep-physiology study

Silvia Monari

Humans show inter-individual differences in vulnerability to develop post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) following exposure to trauma. Several critical biobehavioral features have been consistently described in PTSD patients, including blunted cortisol l ...

Piezo-electric and -phototronic effects of perovskite 2D|3D heterostructures

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Hobeom Kim

Dimensionally-engineered perovskite heterostructures are highly attractive, as recently shown to be useful for enhancing the stability and efficiency in perovskite solar cells. Here, we first report piezo-electric and -phototronic effects found in two-dime ...

Estimation of PKC delta autophosphorylation in U87 MG glioma cells: combination of experimental, conceptual and numerical approaches

Jaroslava Joniová, Veronika Huntosova

Golgi apparatus (GA) is a center for lipid metabolism and the final target of ceramide pathway, which may result in apoptosis. In this work localization of highly hydrophobic hypericin is followed by time-resolved imaging of NBDC6 (fluorescent ceramide) in ...

Lysine acetylation stoichiometry and proteomics analyses reveal pathways regulated by sirtuin 1 in human cells

Diego Chiappe

Lysine acetylation is a widespread posttranslational modification affecting many biological pathways. Recent studies indicate that acetylated lysine residues mainly exhibit low acetylation occupancy, but challenges in sample preparation and analysis make i ...

Unaltered cocaine self-administration in the prenatal LPS rat model of schizophrenia

Erika Myrna Borcel Novoa

Although cocaine abuse is up to three times more frequent among schizophrenic patients, it remains unclear why this should be the case and whether sex influences this relationship. Using a maternal immune activation model of schizophrenia, we tested whethe ...
