This paper develops a minimally invasive optical clearing medium for live mammalian tissue imaging, enabling structural and functional imaging with minimal impact on cellular properties.

The paper investigates the spatial organization of sensory neurons in the mouse trigeminal ganglion and finds that oral cavity representations are intermingled rather than mapped.

The paper uses two-photon calcium imaging to show that mesocortical dopamine axons in the medial PFC exhibit selectivity for aversive cues during classical conditioning.

The paper investigates the role of spinal astrocyte-neuron lactate shuttle (ANLS) in PACAP/PAC1 receptor-induced pain behaviors, showing that ANLS contributes to the development of long-lasting mechanical allodynia.
