Molecular Logic of Cell Diversity and Circuit Connectivity in the REM Sleep Hub

The paper maps the cellular taxonomy and circuit connectivity of the murine sublaterodorsal tegmental nucleus (SLD) using single-nucleus RNA sequencing, revealing a previously unknown pathway involved in REM sleep regulation.

Suprachiasmatic Neuromedin-S Neurons Regulate Arousal

This study identifies SCN Neuromedin-S neurons as regulators of arousal, sleep-wake cycles, and body temperature rhythms through circuit analysis and single-nuclei RNA-Seq.

Loss of PV interneurons in the BLA contributes to altered network and behavioral states in chronically epileptic mice

This study shows that loss of PV interneurons in the BLA of chronically epileptic mice leads to altered network and behavioral states, contributing to comorbid anxiety and epilepsy.

Depleting Hypothalamic Somatostatinergic Neurons Recapitulates Diabetic Phenotypes in Brain, Bone Marrow, Adipose, and Retina

This study shows that reducing hypothalamic somatostatinergic neurons in mice leads to diabetes-like symptoms in multiple tissues without hyperglycemia.
