In vivo role of a potassium channel-binding protein in regulating neuronal excitability and behavior.

19 Oct 2009 Molecular details of ion channel interactions with modulatory subunits have been investigated widely in transfected cells, but the physiological roles of ion channel modulatory protein complexes in native neurons remain largely unexplored. The ... Read more...

Selective serotonin receptor stimulation of the medial nucleus accumbens causes differential effects on food intake and locomotion.

29 Sep 2009 Substantial evidence suggests that pharmacological manipulations of neural serotonin pathways influence ingestive behaviors. Despite the known role of the nucleus accumbens in directing appetitive and consummatory behavior, there has been little ... Read more...

Discovery of Atg5/Atg7-independent alternative macroautophagy.

29 Sep 2009 Macroautophagy is a process that leads to the bulk degradation of subcellular constituents by producing autophagosomes/autolysosomes. It is believed that Atg5 (ref. 4) and Atg7 (ref. 5) are essential genes for mammalian macroautophagy. Here we show, ... Read more...
