Pairing extinction training with vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) reduces drug-seeking by altering activity in afferents to the medial prefrontal cortex

Christopher M. Driskill, Lily Vu, Sophia P. Jalilvand…·Sven Kroener

This study shows that pairing extinction training with vagus nerve stimulation reduces drug-seeking behavior by altering activity in specific prefrontal-amygdala-hippocampal circuits.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis sulfolipid-1 (Sl-1) increases the excitability of mouse and human TRPV1-positive sensory neurons in a YM254890-reversible fashion

Dhananjay K. Naik, Felipe Espinosa, Ifunanya M. Okolie…·Theodore John Price

This study shows that Mycobacterium tuberculosis sulfolipid-1 (SL-1) increases TRPV1-positive sensory neuron excitability through Gq/11 pathway activation and intracellular Ca2+ release.

Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) modulates synaptic plasticity in the rat infralimbic cortex via Trk-B receptor activation to reduce drug-seeking

Christopher M. Driskill, Jessica E. Childs, Aarron J. Phensy…·Sven Kroener

This study shows that vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) enhances extinction learning and reduces drug-seeking in rats by increasing BDNF and modulating TrkB receptors in the infralimbic cortex.

The mitochondrial matrix protein cyclophilin D contributes to deficits in parvalbumin interneurons in schizophrenia

John Tiernan O'Brien, Sophia P. Jalilvand, Neha A. Suji…·Sven Kroener

The paper investigates cyclophilin D (CypD) alterations in parvalbumin interneurons (PVIs) in schizophrenia, linking CypD to redox dysregulation and PVI dysfunction.

Deletion of the mitochondrial matrix protein cyclophilin-D prevents parvalbumin interneuron dysfunction and cognitive deficits in a mouse model of NMDA hypofunction

Aarron J. Phensy, Kathy L. Lindquist, Karen A. Lindquist…·Sven Kroener

This study shows that deleting cyclophilin-D in mice prevents cognitive and synaptic deficits caused by perinatal NMDA receptor blockade.
