Specialized layer 5 cortical terminals target functional thalamic spines

The paper identifies specialized axo-spinous contacts between layer 5 cortical terminals and thalamic spines, showing their functional role in synaptic transmission and motor learning.

A cortico-subcortical loop for motor control via the pontine reticular formation

The paper identifies a cortico-subcortical loop involving the pontine reticular formation that regulates motor activity, parallel to the basal ganglia circuits.

An image segmentation method based on the spatial correlation coefficient of Local Moran's I - identification of A-type potassium channel clusters in the thalamus.

The paper introduces a spatial autocorrelation method based on Local Moran's I to segment images without thresholds, showing improved performance in noisy conditions by identifying potassium channel clusters in the thalamus.

Early and selective subcortical Tau pathology within the human Papez circuit

The paper identifies early and selective subcortical Tau pathology in the Papez circuit, particularly in the anterodorsal thalamic nucleus, and links it to disorientation in dementia.

Persistently increased post-stress activity of paraventricular thalamic neurons is essential for the emergence of stress-induced maladaptive behavior

The paper identifies persistent post-stress activity of paraventricular thalamic neurons as critical for stress-induced maladaptive behavior and shows that inhibiting this activity can alleviate symptoms.

Region Selective Cortical Control Of The Thalamic Reticular Nucleus

The paper shows that frontal cortex uses a specialized pathway to control the thalamic reticular nucleus through L5 pyramidal cells, distinct from other cortical regions.
