Mapping the cellular basis of species differences in oxytocin and dopamine receptor expression in the vole nucleus accumbens by Meredith K. Loth, Julia C. Schmidt, Cassandra A. Gonzalez, Liza E. Brusman, Julie M. Sadino, Kelly E. Winther, David S. W. Protter, Zoe R. Donaldson

“…Using multiplex in situ hybridization, we mapped Oxtr, Drd1, and Drd2 expression in sexually naïve and mate-paired prairie and meadow voles. Prairie voles have more Oxtr+ cells than meadow voles, but Oxtr distribution across dopamine-receptor cell class was similar, indicating a general upregulation rather than cell class bias. …”

Morphological Research Directions at Neuroscience-Related Institutes of the German Max Planck Society, 1948–2002 by Frank W. Stahnisch

“…Pertaining to these overall developments in the Max Planck Society, a persistence of the “morphological paradigm” (microanatomy, pathology, comparative anatomy, etc.) can be identified as lasting until the 1960s. The newer “functional paradigm” (neurophysiology, electroencephalography, cybernetics, and behavioral studies) only became more visible when the first generations of the scientific leaders left their positions in this national research society. …”

When DNA Repair Backfires – Trabectedin Induces DNA Breaks in Active Genes by Vakil Takhaveev, Kook Son, Visesato Mor, Hobin Yu, Emma Dillier, Nicola Zilo, Nikolai J. L. Püllen, Dmitri Ivanov, Helle D. Ulrich, Shana J. Sturia, Orlando D. Schärer

“…Many anticancer drugs are ineffective in tumors that have functional DNA repair mechanisms. In contrast, trabectedin, a tetrahydroisoquinoline alkaloid marine natural product, stands out as it is more lethal to cancer cells with active DNA repair, particularly transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair (TC-NER), making it an intriguing alternative to standard chemotherapeutic agents. …”
