SNED1 modulates ECM architecture and cell proliferation via LDV-binding integrins
Dharma Pally, Leanna Leverton, Asantewaa Jones, Alexandra Naba
This study shows that SNED1 interacts with LDV-binding integrins to remodel the ECM, align cells, and promote proliferation, crucial for neural crest migration and cancer invasion.

Sex and estrous cycle stage shape left-right asymmetry in chronic hippocampal seizures in mice
Cathryn A. Cutia, Leanna K. Leverton, Catherine A. Christian
This study shows that in mice, female-specific left-right asymmetry in hippocampal function interacts with estrous cycle stage to influence chronic seizure patterns following kainic acid injection.

Female-Specific Pituitary Hypersensitivity to Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone in a Mouse Model of Chronic Temporal Lobe Epilepsy
Cathryn A. Cutia, Leanna K. Leverton, Karen E. Weis…·Catherine A. Christian
The paper examines changes in pituitary function in a mouse model of chronic temporal lobe epilepsy, finding increased GnRH sensitivity and gene expression in females but no significant changes in LH or FSH levels.

Lateralized phenotypic differences after intrahippocampal kainic acid injection in female mice
Cathryn A. Cutia, Leanna K. Leverton, Xiyu Ge…·Catherine A. Christian
This study shows that injecting kainic acid into the left or right hippocampus of female mice leads to different reproductive endocrine and cellular outcomes, despite similar estrous cycle disruptions.

Increased GABA transmission to GnRH neurons after intrahippocampal kainic acid injection in mice is sex-specific and associated with estrous cycle disruption
Robbie J. Ingram, Leanna K. Leverton, Victoria C. Daniels…·Catherine A. Christian
The paper investigates GABA transmission to GnRH neurons in an epilepsy mouse model, finding sex-specific changes linked to estrous cycle disruption.
