Glucosylceramide induced ectosomes propagate pathogenic α-synuclein in Parkinson's disease

This study shows that glucosylceramide-induced ectosomes transmit pathogenic α-synuclein between neurons in Parkinson's disease.

A simple and reliable method for claustrum localization across age in mice

The paper introduces an immunolabeling method to reliably identify claustrum cells in mice across developmental stages using Nurr1/Nr2f2 and Tle4 markers.

State dependent constraints on claustrocortical communication and function

This study investigates how claustrum neurons interact with the cortex during different vigilance states, finding that their activity and communication efficacy are modulated by cortical synchronization and cholinergic tone.

Spatially patterned excitatory neuron subtypes and circuits within the claustrum

The paper identifies two excitatory neuron subtypes in the claustrum with distinct molecular and circuit properties, revealing a core-shell spatial arrangement that reconciles conflicting views on its extent.

Topographic gradients define the projection patterns of the claustrum core and shell in mice

The paper maps claustrocortical projection patterns in mice, revealing topographic organization and distinct functional modules.
