The paper revisits the embryonic origins of forebrain oligodendrocytes using genetic fate mapping, finding that LGE/CGE-derived OLs dominate specific brain regions while MGE/POA-derived OLs contribute uniquely to the cortex.

The paper shows that brief dark exposure enhances cortical excitability and visual plasticity in adult humans through reduced intracortical inhibition.

This study maps the developmental trajectory of hypothalamic neurons in mice using single-cell transcriptomics and lineage tracing, revealing a cascade diversification model for neuronal diversity.

This study evaluates the reliability and variability of different methods for measuring ocular dominance plasticity after monocular deprivation.

The paper identifies a specific class of central amygdala neurons that are essential for synaptic plasticity in the lateral amygdala during learning.
