This study investigates how two glutamatergic pathways to the nucleus accumbens influence vulnerability to cannabinoid addiction in mice, finding that both increase persistence of drug seeking but affect other behaviors differently.

This study shows that deleting Shank3 in glutamatergic neurons of the anterior insular cortex causes autism-like behaviors and circuit dysfunction in mice.

The paper examines calcium dynamics in the medial prefrontal cortex of mice to identify neural differences between food-addicted and non-addicted behaviors.

This study shows PACAP modulates anxiety circuits by altering synaptic efficacy in BLA-ovBNST-adBNST pathways, leading to inhibition of adBNST and increased anxiety.

This study identifies GluN3A-NMDA receptors as negative regulators of GIT1/mTORC1 assembly, showing their role in controlling synaptic protein synthesis and memory formation.
