Schizophrenia-associated 22q11.2 deletion elevates striatal acetylcholine and disrupts thalamostriatal projections to produce amotivation in mice

Mary H. Patton, Brett J.W. Teubner, Kristen T. Thomas, Sharon L. Freshour, Alexandra J. Trevisan, Andrew B. Schild, Cody A. Ramirez, Jay B. Bikoff, Stanislav S. Zakharenko

This study identifies striatal hypercholinergic state and thalamostriatal disruption as causes of amotivation in a 22q11DS mouse model.

Spinal neuron diversity scales exponentially with swim-to-limb transformation during frog metamorphosis

David Vijatovic, Florina Alexandra Toma, Zoe P. M. Harrington, Christopher Sommer, Robert Hauschild, Alexandra J. Trevisan, Phillip Chapman, Mara J. Julseth, Susan Brenner‐Morton, Mariano I. Gabitto, Jeremy S. Dasen, Jay B. Bikoff, Lora B. Sweeney

The paper shows that spinal neuron diversity increases exponentially during frog metamorphosis as motor behavior shifts from swimming to limb use, with molecular similarities to mammalian circuits.

The transcriptomic landscape of spinal V1 interneurons reveals a role for En1 in specific elements of motor output

Alexandra J. Trevisan, Katie Han, Phillip Chapman, Anand Sunil Kulkarni, Jennifer M. Hinton, Cody Ramirez, Ines Klein, Graziana Gatto, Mariano I. Gabitto, Vilas Menon, Jay B. Bikoff

The paper presents a single-nucleus transcriptomic atlas of spinal V1 interneurons across development, identifying En1's role in specifying a subset of V1Pou6f2 interneurons and its impact on locomotor output.

Synaptic plasticity in human thalamocortical assembloids

Mary H. Patton, Kristen T. Thomas, Ildar T. Bayazitov, Kyle D. Newman, Nathan B. Kurtz, Camenzind G. Robinson, Cody A. Ramirez, Alexandra J. Trevisan, Jay B. Bikoff, Sam Peters, Shondra M. Pruett‐Miller, Yanbo Jiang, Andrew B. Schild, Anjana Nityanandam, Stanislav S. Zakharenko

This paper demonstrates that thalamocortical assembloids formed from human organoids exhibit functional glutamatergic synapses with short-term plasticity and distinct long-term potentiation and depression mechanisms compared to rodents.
