This study constructs a cross-species spinal interneuron atlas and shows that Hox-dependent regionalization of circuits drives motor output diversity across vertebrate body regions.

The paper shows that V3 neurons in mice amplify locomotor output by increasing motoneuron excitability across all hindlimb muscles.

The paper identifies the roles of V0 and V3 commissural interneurons in crossed reflexes in mice, showing V3 CINs are essential for both excitatory and inhibitory CRs, while V0 CINs modulate inhibitory CRs.

The paper investigates the role of V3 neurons in speed-dependent interlimb coordination during locomotion in mice, finding that V3 aLPNs mediate synchronization between diagonal limb rhythm generators for trot and promote left-right synchronization for gallop and bound.

The paper identifies a novel DNA binding motif, HB1RE, associated with HOXB1-mediated gene repression in mouse ES cells.

The paper identifies two sub-populations of Chx10-expressing neurons in the mouse medullary reticular formation and shows how local interneurons modulate reticulospinal output.

The paper uses super-resolution fluorescence imaging to reveal periodic CB1 receptor clusters in neurons and their interaction with the MPS.

This study investigates how dopamine receptors regulate spinal network output in neonatal mice, revealing concentration-dependent excitatory and inhibitory effects mediated by D1 and D2 receptors during low excitability states.

This study investigates the role of V3 interneurons in left-right coordination during locomotion using experimental and computational approaches.

The paper identifies miRNA-GPCR regulatory networks that control Sox9a/Sox9b activities, influencing gonadal renewal in zebrafish.

The paper investigates how large genomic deletions affect chromatin interactions and states in human brain development using Hi-C and ChIP-Seq analyses.
