This study shows that ketamine's rapid antidepressant effects in mice are mediated by increased expression of Ca2+-permeable AMPA receptors in the hippocampus through reduced calcineurin activity.

The paper shows that experienced female mice can improve maternal-infant survival by assisting in caregiving and parturition, particularly for mice lacking the oxytocin receptor.

This paper develops and validates caged oxytocin analogs that can be activated with light to precisely control oxytocin signaling in the brain and peripheral tissues.

This study shows that phosphorylation of GluA1 at S845 reduces AP2 binding, decreasing AMPAR endocytosis and increasing surface expression during synaptic plasticity.
