This study investigates the activation of NPY+ interneurons in the basolateral amygdala in response to aversive stimuli in mice, finding transient activation to air puffs and prolonged activation to footshocks.

This study shows that NPY's anxiolytic effects in the CA1 region are mediated by Y1 receptors in the temporammonic pathway, with pathway-specific differences in receptor subtypes.

This study shows that ectopically expressed human rhodopsin does not respond to X-ray stimulation, unlike visible light, and cannot transduce X-ray signals into neural activity.

This paper shows that X-ray activation of cerium-doped LSO particles can increase synaptic activity via Channelrhodopsin-2 in hippocampal neurons.

This paper demonstrates a method for noninvasive, temporally controlled drug delivery to the rat brain using focused ultrasound and MRI-visible albumin nanoclusters.

This paper demonstrates that LSO:Ce inorganic scintillators can activate ChR2 and modify synaptic function without harming neurons, suggesting their potential as a non-invasive light delivery system for optogenetics.
