This study shows that cesarean section in mice alters brain barrier function, immune profiles, and metabolism in the neonatal brain, highlighting birth mode's impact on early brain development.

The paper shows that moderate exercise improves cognitive function and neurogenesis in mice, but these benefits disappear with higher intensity or duration, and that gut microbiota changes mediate these effects.

The paper identifies a unique population of regulatory T cells in the murine meninges that maintain brain homeostasis by suppressing interferon-gamma-producing lymphocytes and preventing hippocampal damage.

This study shows that exercise in mice can transmit cognitive benefits to the second generation through miRNA-mediated mechanisms, even when cellular changes in the first generation are lost.
