Impact of Mitofusin 2 in the Nucleus Accumbens on motivated behavior and underlying neurobiological mechanisms
The nucleus accumbens (NAc) is part of the ventral striatum and plays a major role in motivation and goal-directed behaviour. Increasing evidence implicates impairments in accumbal function in anxiety and depression, two conditions that are commonly accomp ...
EPFL2024Principles of Network Plasticity in Neocortical Microcircuits
Synaptic plasticity underlies our ability to learn and adapt to the constantly changing environment. The phenomenon of synapses changing their efficacy in an activity-dependent manner is often studied in small groups of neurons in vitro or indirectly throu ...
EPFL2023Axonal and Dendritic Morphology of Excitatory Neurons in Layer 2/3 Mouse Barrel Cortex Imaged Through Whole-Brain Two-Photon Tomography and Registered to a Digital Brain Atlas
Carl Petersen, Sylvain Crochet, Yanqi Liu, Georgios Foustoukos
Communication between cortical areas contributes importantly to sensory perception and cognition. On the millisecond time scale, information is signaled from one brain area to another by action potentials propagating across long-range axonal arborizations. ...
FRONTIERS MEDIA SA2022A subpopulation of cortical VIP-expressing interneurons with highly dynamic spines
Graham Knott, Jérôme Blanc, Christina Georgiou, Kok Sin Lee
Structural synaptic plasticity may underlie experience and learning-dependent changes in cortical circuits. In contrast to excitatory pyramidal neurons, insight into the structural plasticity of inhibitory neurons remains limited. Interneurons are divided ...
NATURE PORTFOLIO2022Revealing Morphology Evolution of Lithium Dendrites by Large-Scale Simulation Based on Machine Learning Force Field
Solving the dendrite growth problem is critical for the development of lithium metal anode for high-capacity batteries. In this work, a machine learning force field model in combination with a self-consistent continuum solvation model is used to simulate t ...
WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH2022High synaptic threshold for dendritic NMDA spike generation in human layer 2/3 pyramidal neurons
James Gonzalo King, Suraj Honnuraiah
Neurons receive synaptic input primarily onto their dendrites. While we know much about the electrical properties of dendrites in rodents, we have only just started to describe their properties in the human brain. Here, we investigate the capacity of human ...
2022The angiopoietin-Tie2 pathway regulates Purkinje cell dendritic morphogenesis in a cell-autonomous manner
Neuro-vascular communication is essential to synchronize central nervous system development. Here, we identify angiopoietin/Tie2 as a neuro-vascular signaling axis involved in regulating dendritic morphogenesis of Purkinje cells (PCs). We show that in the ...
CELL PRESS2021In situ visualizing the interplay between the separator and potassium dendrite growth by synchrotron X-ray tomography
Yutao Li, Yanan Chen, Kangning Zhao, Chao Yang, Xuchen Wang, Fu Sun
Rechargeable potassium (K) batteries are a promising next-generation technology for low-cost grid scale energy storage applications. Nevertheless, the undesirable interfacial instabilities originating from the interplay between the employed separators and ...
