This study investigates the effects of mGluR2/3 receptor agonist and antagonist on weight loss and physical activity in an activity-based anorexia mouse model.

This study shows that losing the MeCP2 gene in parvalbumin interneurons reduces inhibitory signaling in the amygdala and disrupts functional connectivity with the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex.

This study shows that TrkB-mediated plasticity in Somatostatin-expressing neurons is critical for the extinction of cocaine-seeking behavior and preventing relapse.

The paper identifies a transcription factor network involving Gata2, Nkx2-2, and Skor2 that regulates the development of midbrain GABAergic neurons associated with REM sleep regulation.

The paper shows that basal forebrain and brainstem cholinergic neurons differentially affect amygdala circuits and behavior through distinct mechanisms.
