This study shows that high sugar diets cause obesity, gut microbiota changes, and cognitive issues in mice, while low sugar diets have beneficial effects.

This study shows that high-fat diet induces purinergic signaling in the hypothalamus, leading to obesity and insulin resistance, and that targeting P2Y12 can reverse these effects.

The paper shows that social signals convey explicit information about danger proximity, and the central amygdala circuits mediate context-appropriate defensive reactions.

This study shows Amot and Yap1 regulate dendritic tree morphogenesis in neurons, with Amot mediating this process through interactions with Yap1.
