Journal ArticleDOI

Neuron-Astrocyte Metabolic Coupling Protects against Activity-Induced Fatty Acid Toxicity

TL;DR: These findings reveal that FA metabolism is coupled in neurons and astrocytes to protect neurons from FA toxicity during periods of enhanced activity, which could underlie both homeostasis and a variety of disease states of the brain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Self-generated theta oscillations in the hippocampus.

TL;DR: The results suggest that CA1 theta rhythm can emerge from the coupling of multiple autonomous hippocampal theta oscillators, and this work finds several intrinsic, atropine-resistant theta generators in CA1.
Journal ArticleDOI

Opening Holes in the Blanket of Inhibition: Localized Lateral Disinhibition by VIP Interneurons.

TL;DR: VIP interneurons, themselves regulated by neuromodulators, may enable selective patterns of activity to propagate through the cortex, by generating a “spotlight of attention” by optogenetically activating single VIPs in live mice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cooperative Subnetworks of Molecularly Similar Interneurons in Mouse Neocortex

TL;DR: A variety of synergistic mechanisms, involving population-specific local excitation, GABAergic disinhibition and excitation through electrical coupling, are demonstrated, which likely underlie IN population co-activity.
