The paper maps ascending inputs to subdivisions of the mouse inferior colliculus, revealing that the external cortex has a hybrid input organization combining features of both core and shell regions.

The paper identifies noncanonical auditory pathways in mice that bypass primary auditory cortex and directly activate secondary auditory cortex layers, enabling parallel sensory processing.

The paper identifies the orbitofrontal cortex as a source of predictive signals that suppress irrelevant auditory inputs through inhibitory neurons in the primary auditory cortex.

This study shows that glucose-regulated O-GlcNAcylation of DNMT1 inhibits its methyltransferase activity, leading to epigenome changes and increased DNA damage.

This study compares spectrotemporal integration in primary and secondary auditory cortices of mice using two-photon calcium imaging, revealing distinct integration patterns and roles in encoding complex acoustic features.

The paper evaluates the accuracy of stereotaxic coordinates for targeting functional cortical areas in mice by comparing atlas-based coordinates with functionally identified auditory cortices.

The paper shows that feedback from layer 5 suppresses superficial cortical layers through translaminar circuitry, challenging the classical feedforward model of sensory processing.

The paper investigates the role of PnocBNST neurons in encoding behavioral responses to aversive and rewarding odors in mice using calcium imaging and optogenetics.

The paper investigates how the mouse secondary auditory cortex integrates multi-frequency sounds, showing that SOM interneurons broaden the temporal window for harmonic integration.

This study shows hyperinsulinemia increases histone acetylation and promotes tumor growth in TNBC via the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway.

This study shows that Epstein-Barr virus transforms B cells to activate LTR enhancers and promoters, altering the transcriptome and impacting oncogenic processes.
