Neurons in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus discharge synchronously in brain state-dependent manner to transfer information. Published studies have highlighted the temporal coordination of neuronal activities between the hippocampus and a neocortical area, however, how the spatial extent of neocortical activity relates to hippocampal activity remains partially unknown. We imaged mesoscopic neocortical activity while recording hippocampal local field potentials in anesthetized and unanesthetized GCaMP-expressing transgenic mice.

Objective: Aberrant 6-phosphofructo-2kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphoshatase 3 (PFKFB3) expression is tightly correlated with multiple steps of tumorigenesis; however, the pathological significance of PFKFB3 in macrophages in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) remains obscure. In this study, we examined whether PFKFB3 modulates macrophage activation and promotes RA development.
Method: Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from patients with RA, THP-1 cells, and bone marrow-derived macrophages from conditional PFKFB3-knockout mice were used to investigate the mechanism underlying PFKFB3-induced macrophage regulation of RA.

Formaldehyde (FA) is a hazardous pollutant causing acute and chronic poisoning in humans. While plants provide a natural method of removing FA pollution, their ability to absorb and degrade FA is limited. To improve the ability of plants to degrade FA, we introduced the E.

Lotus japonicus-ROOT HAIR LESS1-LIKE1 (LRL1) of Arabidopsis thaliana encodes a basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor (TF) involved in root hair development. Root hair development is regulated by an elaborate transcriptional network, in which GLABRA2 (GL2), a key negative regulator, directly represses bHLH TF genes, including LRL1 and ROOT HAIR DEFECTIVE6 (RHD6). Although RHD6 and its paralogous TFs have been shown to connect downstream to genes involved in cell morphological events such as endomembrane and cell wall modification, the network downstream of LRL1 remains elusive.

The gene GAD1 encodes a glutamate decarboxylase, which is a rate-limiting enzyme for the biosynthesis of endogenous γ-aminobutyrate acid (GABA), but a potential role of GAD1 in regulating cadmium (Cd) tolerance needs to be further elucidated in plants. The objective of this study was to investigate Cd tolerance of creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera) and transgenic yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) or Arabidopsis thaliana overexpressing AsGAD1. The Cd-tolerant creeping bentgrass cultivar LOFTSL-93 accumulated more endogenous GABA in relation to a significant upregulation of AsGAD1 in leaf and root than the Cd-sensitive W66569 in response to Cd stress.
