Short-chain polyphosphates induce tau fibrillation and neurotoxicity in human iPSC-derived retinal neurons by Lorenzo Barolo, Lorenza Mautone, Ylenia Gigante, Silvia Ghirga, Francesco Mura, Maria Vittoria Farina, Stefano Tacconi, Luciana Dini, Giancarlo Ruocco, Alberto Boffi, Edoardo Milanetti, Silvia Di Angelantonio, Paola Baiocco

“…Abstract The onset of Alzheimer’s Disease and Frontotemporal Dementia is closely associated with the aggregation of tau, a multifunctional protein essential for neuronal stability and function. Given the role of tau aggregation in neurodegeneration, understanding the mechanisms behind its fibril formation is crucial for developing therapeutic interventions to halt or reverse disease progression. …”

Glutamatergic lateral habenula neurons modulate consolidation of associative memories by Snigdha Srivastava, Snigdha Srivastava, Snigdha Srivastava, Snigdha Srivastava, I-Ching Wang, Mikhail Y. Kochukov, Mikhail Y. Kochukov, Jessica L. Swanson, Mauro Costa-Mattioli, Benjamin R. Arenkiel, Benjamin R. Arenkiel, Benjamin R. Arenkiel, Benjamin R. Arenkiel, Benjamin R. Arenkiel

“…The lateral habenula (LHb) has emerged as a key brain structure in depression studies due to its hyperactive state in both patients and animal models. While this aligns with known roles in driving aversive states and regulating serotonin release, it is still unclear how acute and transient activity changes in the LHb can influence higher order cognitive processes such as learning, memory, and behavioral adaptation. …”
