Nutrient excess remodels islet autonomic innervation via pancreatic schwann cells

This study shows that nutrient excess remodels pancreatic islet innervation through Schwann cells, impairing glycemic control, and demonstrates that neuromodulation can improve outcomes.

Non-invasive in vivo bidirectional magnetogenetic modulation of pain circuits.

This paper introduces a magnetogenetic method to bidirectionally control pain circuits in mice using magnetic fields and a fusion protein, showing both excitatory and inhibitory effects on nociceptor activity.

Bidirectional Regulation of Motor Circuits Using Magnetogenetic Gene Therapy

This paper develops magnetogenetic tools to bidirectionally regulate specific neuronal circuits in vivo using magnetic fields and shows their efficacy in motor control and Parkinson's models.

An Atlas of Brain-Bone Sympathetic Neural Circuits

This paper identifies central brain regions that send sympathetic nervous system outflow to bone using viral tracing, revealing 87 brain sites and site-specific variations in neural control.
