Long-term memories are thought to be stored in neurones and synapses that undergo physical changes, such as long-term potentiation (LTP), and these changes can be …
Neuropeptide S (NPS), an endogenous neuropeptide consisting of 20 amino acids, selectively binds and activates G protein-coupled receptor named neuropeptide S receptor …
Activity-dependent changes in the effective connection strength of synapses are a fundamental feature of a nervous system. This so-called synaptic plasticity is thought to …

Abstract Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of thick samples using superresolution fluorescence microscopy remains challenging due to high level of background noise and …
Fear memories allow animals to recognize and adequately respond to dangerous situations. The prelimbic cortex (PrL) is a crucial node in the circuitry that encodes contextual fear …
Useful memory must balance between stability and malleability. This puts effective memory storage at odds with plasticity processes, such as reconsolidation. What becomes of memory …
Protein kinase M ζ is well known for its role in maintaining memory and pain. Previously, we revealed that the activation of protein kinase M ζ in the anterior cingulate cortex plays a role …
