Synaptic Targets and Cellular Sources of CB1 Cannabinoid Receptor and Vesicular Glutamate Transporter-3 Expressing Nerve Terminals in Relation to GABAergic Neurons in the Human Cerebral Cortex

Distribution and Function of CB1 Cannabinoid Receptor and VGLUT3 in the Human Cerebral Cortex Background Cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1) regulates synaptic transmission through presynaptic receptors in nerve terminals, and its physiological roles are of significant clinical relevance. However, the cellular sources and synaptic targets of CB1-expressin...

GABAergic Neuronal Lineage Development Determines Clinically Actionable Targets in Diffuse Hemispheric Glioma

Background and Research Objectives High-Grade Glioma (HGG) is a highly lethal primary brain tumor with a particularly high incidence and mortality rate in children and adolescents. HGG can be further divided into several subtypes, among which Diffuse Hemispheric Glioma, H3G34-mutant (DHG-H3G34), is a rare subtype with poor prognosis, mainly occurri...

Cortico-cortical transfer of socially derived information gates emotion recognition

The Gating Role of Cortical Transfer of Socially Derived Information in Emotion Recognition Background Introduction Emotion recognition and the subsequent responses are crucial for survival and maintaining social functions. However, how social information is processed to reliably recognize emotions remains unclear. In this new study, the authors re...
