The paper investigates the mechanisms of long-term potentiation (LTP) at excitatory synapses on VIP interneurons in the mouse somatosensory cortex, finding presynaptic expression and involvement of mGluR-1 and L-type VGCC.

The paper shows that inhibiting layer 4 somatostatin interneurons disrupts learning-induced plasticity in the barrel cortex during Pavlovian conditioning.

The paper investigates the role of c-Fos and MMP-9 in the central amygdala, finding they mediate approach motivation but not reward consumption.

This study shows TCF7L2 regulates thalamic neuron differentiation and electrophysiological features by controlling gene expression and cell migration.
