Journal ArticleDOI

Evoked Axonal Oxytocin Release in the Central Amygdala Attenuates Fear Response

TL;DR: In vivo, local blue-light-induced endogenous OT release robustly decreased freezing responses in fear-conditioned rats and demonstrates that OT release from local axonal endings can specifically control region-associated behaviors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Locomotion, Theta Oscillations, and the Speed-Correlated Firing of Hippocampal Neurons Are Controlled by a Medial Septal Glutamatergic Circuit

TL;DR: A septo-hippocampal circuit mediated by glutamatergic (VGluT2(+)) neurons that is activated before locomotion onset and that controls the initiation and velocity of locomotion as well as the entrainment of theta oscillations is revealed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spatial specification of mammalian eye territories by reciprocal transcriptional repression of Pax2 and Pax6

TL;DR: A model for Pax gene regulation is proposed that establishes the proper spatial regionalization of the mammalian visual system through reciprocal inhibition of Pax2 promoter/enhancer activity by Pax6 protein and vice versa.
Journal ArticleDOI

Homeostatic Scaling Requires Group I mGluR Activation Mediated by Homer1a

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that homeostatic scaling is dependent on group I metabotropic glutamate receptor activation that is mediated by the immediate early gene Homer1a, and an elegant interplay of mechanisms that underlie Hebbian and non-Hebbian plasticity is revealed.
