Early life Oxytocin treatment Attenuates Seizure Susceptibility in Male, but not Female, Fmr1-KO Mice

This study shows early-life oxytocin treatment reduces seizure susceptibility in male but not female Fmr1-KO mice, revealing sex-specific effects.

Unexpected mechanisms of sex-specific memory vulnerabilities to acute traumatic stress

The paper investigates sex differences in memory vulnerability to acute traumatic stress, finding that estrogen and its receptors play a role in both males and females.

Cocaine Blocks Cholinergic Activity in the Medial Habenula Prior to But Not After Induced Preference for the Drug

Early-life Oxytocin Rescues Hippocampal Synaptic Plasticity and Episodic Memory in a Mouse Model of Fragile X Syndrome

Input / Output Relationships for the Primary Hippocampal Circuit.

The paper investigates signal throughput in the hippocampal circuit, finding that single pulses and theta-modulated bursts are transmitted, while high-frequency inputs are filtered.

Metabotropic NMDA Receptor Signaling Contributes to Sex Differences in Synaptic Plasticity and Episodic Memory

The paper shows sex-specific roles of metabotropic NMDA receptor signaling in synaptic plasticity and episodic memory in mice.

Contrasting synaptic roles of MDGA1 and MDGA2

The paper investigates the distinct synaptic roles of MDGA1 and MDGA2, showing MDGA1 modulates excitatory synapses while MDGA2 affects inhibitory synapses.

Microglia Depletion Selectively Eliminates a Singular Form of Hippocampal Long Term Potentiation

The paper shows that microglia depletion selectively impairs a specific form of hippocampal long-term potentiation (LTP) in the lateral perforant path.

Acquisition of Temporal Order Involves a Reverberating Network in Hippocampal Field CA3

This study shows that hippocampal CA3 maintains self-sustained activity and is critical for acquiring temporal order in odor memory, but not odor identity or location.
