Serotonergic circuit architecture underlies sex dimorphism in anxiogenic states

Noorya Yasmin Ahmed, Yillcer Molina, Álvaro Ballesteros-Gonzalez…·Nathalie Dehorter

This study identifies sex-specific differences in serotonergic circuit connectivity and gene expression in the dorsal raphe nucleus, linking these differences to sex-dependent anxiety-like behaviors.

Preferential vulnerability of cortical GABAergic interneurons to Nalcn deficiency

Candela Barettino, Álvaro Ballesteros-Gonzalez, Yillcer Molina…·Isabel del Pino

This study shows that NALCN deficiency preferentially affects GABAergic interneurons, reducing their intrinsic excitability and impairing contextual adaptation and spatial memory in mice.
