Retro-orbital injections in mice.

TLDR
The authors report that they have routinely used retro-orbital injection of the venous sinus in the adult mouse to administer volumes up to 150 μl without incident and this technique is a useful alternative to tail vein injection for the administration of non-tumorigenic compounds.
Abstract
Intravenous vascular access is technically challenging in the adult mouse and even more challenging in neonatal mice. The authors describe the technique of retro-orbital injection of the venous sinus in the adult and neonatal mouse. This technique is a useful alternative to tail vein injection for the administration of non-tumorigenic compounds. The authors report that they have routinely used this technique in the adult mouse to administer volumes up to 150 μl without incident. Administration of retro-orbital injections is more challenging in neonatal mice but can reliably deliver volumes up to 10 μl.

Bright and photostable chemigenetic indicators for extended in vivo voltage imaging

TL;DR: A novel GEVI is engineered, ‘Voltron’, that utilizes bright and photostable synthetic dyes instead of protein-based fluorophores, extending the combined duration of imaging and number of neurons imaged simultaneously by more than tenfold relative to existing GEVIs.

Phosphorylation of the Amyloid-Beta Peptide Inhibits Zinc-Dependent Aggregation, Prevents Na,K-ATPase Inhibition, and Reduces Cerebral Plaque Deposition.

TL;DR: Several AD-associated pathogenic properties of Aβ are neutralized by its phosphorylation, including inhibition of Na+,K+-ATPase activity by Aβ, which is thought to be a major contributor to neuronal dysfunction in AD.

The CYP2D6 animal model: how to induce autoimmune hepatitis in mice.

TL;DR: A straightforward mouse model that uses the major human autoantigen in type 2 autoimmune hepatitis (AIH-2), namely hCYP2D6, as a trigger and a detailed protocol on how autoimmune liver disease is induced in the CYP2D 6 model is provided and how the different aspects of liver damage can be assessed.

Mammalian Mst1 and Mst2 kinases play essential roles in organ size control and tumor suppression

TL;DR: It is found that Mst1 and Mst2, the two mouse homologs of the Drosophila Hpo, control the sizes of some, but not all organs, in mice, and MSt1 andMst2 act as tumor suppressors by restricting cell proliferation and survival.

Optimal Germinal Center Responses Require a Multistage T Cell:B Cell Adhesion Process Involving Integrins, SLAM-Associated Protein, and CD84

TL;DR: The results reveal insight into the dynamic regulation of T cell:B cell interactions and identify SLAM family members as critical components of sustained T cell-B cell adhesion required for productive humoral immunity.
