This study shows that postnatal chemogenetic activation of forebrain excitatory neurons leads to anxiety-like behaviors and altered glial function and metabolism in adult mice.

The paper introduces a framework to quantify mitochondrial specialization and plasticity using transcriptomic data across various contexts.

The paper investigates the effect of genetic NE loss on adult hippocampal neurogenesis and finds no difference in progenitor proliferation or survival in Dbh-/- mice, contrasting with pharmacological NE depletion.

This study inhibits forebrain excitatory neurons during postnatal or juvenile stages using DREADD and finds no effect on adult mood-related behaviors or sensorimotor gating.

This study shows that chronic chemogenetic activation of forebrain excitatory neurons during postnatal life leads to long-lasting mood-related behavioral and neurophysiological changes.
