Moreover, the Dorsal gradient promotes the expression of zygotic genes twist and snail in the ventral tissues, while inhibits the expression of zen (Zerknullt, the homologous of Hox3) to direct the ...

Work is underway on a wiring diagram of the motor circuits in the central nervous system that control muscles in fruit flies. This connectome, as the wiring diagram is called, is already providing ...

The CA1, an important subregion of the hippocampus, is anatomically and functionally heterogeneous in the dorsal and ventral hippocampus. Here, to dissect the distinctions between the dorsal (dCA1) ...

Scientists discovered that the earliest ecdysozoans likely had a single ventral nerve cord, with paired cords evolving independently in some groups. Fossil evidence links nerve cord evolution to body ...

Impairing effects of post-retrieval noradrenergic but not glucocorticoid activation on future recall are linked to hippocampal reactivation and category-level reinstatement in ventral temporal cortex ...

This valuable study shows that a very slow (infraslow) oscillation occurs in voltage recordings from the dentate gyrus of the adult mouse. The authors suggest that it is related to sleep stage and ...
