M. Carmen Varela, BSc, BA, explains how a novel human organoid model enables large-scale production of PV interneurons.
New research reveals how a class of neurons that help coordinate communication in the brain link up with their target cells, ...
For decades, dopamine has been celebrated in neuroscience as the quintessential "reward molecule"—a chemical herald of ...
Researchers identify two key proteins that allow chandelier cells to connect with excitatory neurons. This "handshake" regulates brain signals and, when disrupted, may lead to epilepsy or autism.
To expand the understanding of memory, a research team has developed a technology called LCD-eGRASP (local circuit dual-eGRASP) that can label synapses of neural circuits within a specific brain ...
Researchers developed a way to directly reprogram human glial cells into PV interneurons without passing through a stem‑cell stage.

An LSU Health New Orleans research study led by Siqiong June Liu, PhD, Professor of Cell Biology and Anatomy, has found that cerebellar inhibitory interneurons are essential for fear memory, a type of ...
A research team led by Prof. HU Li at the Institute of Psychology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has revealed that parvalbumin (PV) interneurons in the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) ...
Labeling of intraregional synapses using LCD-eGRASP in the basolateral amygdala (BLA). Engram cells (Red), Non-engram cells (White), synapses from activated inhibitory interneurons (yellow), and ...
