RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS Top

Computational neuroscience: Population coupling
p313 | doi:10.1038/nrn3965
How the firing of neurons in a population generates cortical representations has not been fully elucidated, but a new study shows that population activity can be understood in terms of the degree of coupling of the spiking of a single neuron to the spiking of the overall population.

Myelination: An active process
p314 | doi:10.1038/nrn3964
Two studies use zebrafish models to investigate the mechanisms through which neuronal activity influences myelination.

PDF


Gene expression: Converging pathways
p314 | doi:10.1038/nrn3968
Reelin induces transcriptional changes in neurons by increasing the formation of an intracellular fragment of its target receptor that interacts with specific enhancer regions in the nucleus.

PDF


Behavioural neuroscience: Picking up the pups
p315 | doi:10.1038/nrn3967
Oxytocin tunes the responses of neurons in the left auditory cortex to pup calls and may thus promote pup retrieval by virgin female mice.

PDF


Neural circuits: Pain or pleasure?
p316 | doi:10.1038/nrn3975
A study uses optogenetics to dissect the circuits involved in associating environmental stimuli with positive or negative outcomes.

REVIEWS Top
Neuronal circuits for fear and anxiety
Philip Tovote, Jonathan Paul Fadok & Andreas Lüthi
p317 | doi:10.1038/nrn3945
Recent methodological progress has greatly facilitated the determination of the connectivity and functional characterization of complex neural circuits. In this Review, Tovote, Fadok and Lüthi examine studies that have adopted circuit-based approaches to gain insight into how the brain governs fear and anxiety.

Article series: Stress
Epigenetic and transgenerational reprogramming of brain development
Tracy L. Bale
p332 | doi:10.1038/nrn3818
Exposure to environmental insults such as maternal stress during prenatal and postnatal development or paternal stress experience can have long-term effects on offspring brain function and behaviour. In this Review, Bale describes the mechanisms through which diverse insults reprogramme the epigenome and can even lead to transmission of the phenotype to subsequent generations.

Compromised autophagy and neurodegenerative diseases
Fiona M. Menzies, Angeleen Fleming & David C. Rubinsztein
p345 | doi:10.1038/nrn3961
Dysfunction of autophagy — an intracellular degradation pathway for cytosolic material — has been implicated in the pathogenesis of various neurodegenerative diseases. Rubinsztein and colleagues review recent progress in this area, focusing on macroautophagy, and discuss how this process may be manipulated to protect against neurodegeneration.

Immune attack: the role of inflammation in Alzheimer disease
Frank L. Heppner, Richard M. Ransohoff & Burkhard Becher
p358 | doi:10.1038/nrn3880
It is now emerging that the neuroinflammation that is associated with Alzheimer disease may have a key role in driving this disease. In this Review, Heppner, Ransohoff and Becher examine the contribution of the immune system to the pathogenesis of this disorder.
