This study shows that cholecystokinin (CCK) modulates age-dependent thalamocortical plasticity, with CCK release and receptor activity being critical for long-term potentiation in young adult mice but not in juveniles or aged mice.

The paper uses single-cell long-read transcriptome sequencing to study transcript diversity and alternative splicing in zebrafish embryos, identifying cell populations with distinct splicing regulations during early development.

The paper identifies BSH gene distribution and activity patterns across 11 human populations, revealing phylotype abundance and enzyme activity differences.
