Postnatal plasticity in the olfactory system of the juvenile swine brain

This study investigates postnatal plasticity in the olfactory system of juvenile swine brains by analyzing DCX+ cells and their migratory patterns.

Expression of sex steroid receptors and sex differences of Otp glutamatergic neurons of the medial extended amygdala

The paper examines sex steroid receptor expression in Otp glutamatergic neurons of the medial extended amygdala and finds sex differences in receptor expression and neuronal morphology.

Development of catecholaminergic neurons of Otp-lineage in the medial extended amygdala and other centers of the social behavior network

The paper investigates the origin of catecholaminergic neurons in the medial extended amygdala and related brain regions using Otp-eGFP mice and immunofluorescence.

Subpopulations of corticotropin-releasing factor containing neurons and internal circuits in the chicken central extended amygdala

The paper identifies two subpopulations of CRF neurons in the chicken central extended amygdala and their local connections, revealing a complex circuit organization involved in stress regulation.

Mapping of corticotropin-releasing factor, receptors and binding protein mRNA in the chicken telencephalon throughout development

This study maps CRF, its receptors, and binding protein mRNA expression in chicken telencephalon during development using in situ hybridization, revealing age-related changes in stress-related gene expression patterns.

A novel telencephalon-opto-hypothalamic morphogenetic domain produces most of the glutamatergic neurons of the medial extended amygdala

The paper identifies a novel embryonic domain producing most glutamatergic neurons in the medial extended amygdala using transgenic mice and fluorescent labeling.
