The paper identifies Trpc4 interneurons in the spinal cord that gate bladder sensory input and regulate micturition reflexes, revealing their role in bladder-sphincter coordination and visceral pain.

The paper identifies CeA neuronal ensembles that modulate visceral pain and its affective behaviors through optogenetic manipulation and single-nucleus RNA sequencing.

The paper introduces Projection-TAGs, a tool for multiplex projection tracing and multi-modal profiling of projection neurons in mice.

This study shows that norepinephrine modulates synapses via astrocytic adrenergic receptors and Ca2+ dynamics, independent of neuronal receptors.

The paper defines the transcriptional taxonomy of ventral pallidum cell types across mice, macaques, and baboons using snRNA-seq and in situ hybridization, finding transcriptional conservation and unique subclusters in primates.
