This study uses simultaneous brain-spinal cord fMRI to map neural activity related to hand strength and dexterity, revealing graded activation and inhibition patterns across motor and sensory regions.

This study performs a systematic review and meta-analysis of miRNA alterations in spinal cord injury across species, identifying conserved miRNAs involved in pathophysiological processes.

This paper shows miR-409-3p represses Cited2 to regulate the fate of callosal and corticospinal projection neurons during development.

The paper shows that the miR-193b~365 microRNA cluster downstream of Fezf2 represses Mapk8 and affects dendritic branching in cortical projection neurons.

The paper identifies a microRNA cluster unique to placental mammals that promotes corticospinal neuron identity by repressing LMO4, a callosal gene, thereby contributing to neuronal subtype diversity in the mammalian brain.
