Suppression of epileptic seizures by transcranial activation of K+-selective channelrhodopsin

This study develops a K+-selective channelrhodopsin for transcranial optogenetic inhibition of neuronal activity, showing reduced seizure activity in mouse models.

The do not eat me signal CD47 contributes to microglial phagocytosis defects and autism-like behaviors in 16p11.2 deletion mice

This study shows that increased CD47 in 16p11.2 deletion mice impairs microglial phagocytosis, leading to autism-like behaviors, and that reducing CD47 improves these deficits.

Enhancement of spatial learning by 40 Hz visual stimulation requires parvalbumin interneuron-dependent hippocampal neurogenesis

This study shows that prolonged 40 Hz light flicker improves spatial learning and neurogenesis in the hippocampus through GABAergic parvalbumin interneuron activity.
