This study identifies microglial AhR as a regulator of sex-biased amyloid pathology, showing that AhR activation exacerbates amyloid deposition and that AhR deficiency reduces amyloid burden.

This study shows that astrocytic PI3Kα supports synaptic plasticity and cognitive function by regulating serine metabolism and D-serine levels necessary for NMDA receptor activation during long-term potentiation.

This study shows that stroke increases hippocampal neurogenesis but leads to maladaptive morphological features in newborn neurons across multiple mouse stroke models.

This study evaluates cognitive outcomes after stroke in mice using multiple models and tests, finding inconsistent results and highlighting challenges in pre-clinical stroke cognition research.

This study shows that circadian rhythms modulate neutrophil function, affecting collateral perfusion and outcomes after ischemic stroke in mice and humans.
