Functional Regrowth of Norepinephrine Axons in the Adult Mouse Brain Following Injury

This paper demonstrates that norepinephrine axons in the adult mouse brain can regrow and functionally recover after injury, challenging the belief that adult CNS axons cannot regenerate.

The lateral habenula is required for maternal behavior in the mouse dam

This study shows that the lateral habenula is required for maternal behavior in mouse dams through lesion and chemogenetic inactivation experiments.

Catecholaminergic axons in the neocortex of adult mice regrow following brain injury

The paper measures catecholaminergic axon density in adult mice after brain injury and finds they regrow over weeks to months following controlled cortical impact or stab injury.
