Chronic potentiation of metabotropic glutamate receptor 2 with a nanobody accelerates amyloidogenesis in Alzheimer's disease.

This study shows that chronic activation of mGlu2 receptors with a nanobody accelerates amyloid formation and worsens memory deficits in Alzheimer's disease models.

An executive center for the intake of liquids

The paper identifies two subcortical nuclei in mammals that organize fluid ingestion movements, showing their role in jaw and tongue control through stimulation and activity recordings.

Upregulation of breathing rate during running exercise by central locomotor circuits

This study identifies neural circuits in mice that mediate increased breathing during running exercise by linking locomotor regions to respiratory control centers.

Independent respiratory and locomotor rhythms in running mice

This study shows that respiratory rate in running mice increases to a fixed value during trotting and further increases during gallop, without coordination between breaths and strides.
