Plants engage in important symbiotic relationships with both bacteria and fungi that involve exchanges of nutrients; their encounters with nitrogen-fixing bacteria and mycorrhizal fungi activate the s...
Deciphering Gene Expression Patterns - Nir Yakoby and Stas Shvartsman discuss the gene expression profiling project that led them to develop this framework for cataloguing and interpreting gene expres...
Neuronal Microcircuits Underlying Spatial Cognition - The functional microcircuits underlying spatial representations in medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) have not been described. Through their discovery...
D2 Receptor-DISC1 Complex and Antipsychotic Effects
D2 Receptor-DISC1 Complex and Antipsychotic Effects - Our lab has identified a novel interaction between D2 receptor and DISC1, and this complex was found to be increased in postmortem brain tissues o...
The retrieval of previously formed memory triggers the lability of that memory for a short time and its reconsolidation. However, what exactly triggers memory reconsolidation is not known. Here, Diaz-...
