The cerebellum, identified to be active during cognitive and social behavior, has multisynaptic connections through the cerebellar nuclei (CN) and thalamus to cortical regions, yet formation and modulation of these pathways are not fully understood. Perineuronal nets (PNNs) respond to changes in local cellular activity and emerge during development. PNNs are implicated in learning and neurodevelopmental disorders, but their role in the CN during development is unknown.

Development and maintenance of posture is essential behavior for overground mammalian locomotion. Dopamine and noradrenaline strongly influence locomotion, and their dysregulation initiates the development of motor impairments linked to neurodegenerative disease. However, the precise cellular and circuit mechanisms are not well defined.

Background: Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is a neurodegenerative disorder involving pathological deposition of tau that includes glial inclusions and specific regional vulnerability patterns. Therapeutic developments are hampered by incomplete understanding of disease mechanisms. Few studies have examined its cell type-specific effects.

The spatial transcriptomics is a rapidly evolving biological technology that simultaneously measures the gene expression profiles and the spatial locations of spots. With progressive advances, current spatial transcriptomic techniques can achieve the cellular or even the subcellular resolution, making it possible to explore the fine-grained spatial pattern of cell types within one tissue section. However, most existing cell spatial clustering methods require a correct specification of the cell type number, which is hard to determine in the practical exploratory data analysis.

Background: Mitochondria are organelles where energy production takes place via oxidative phosphorylation, thus mitochondrial function influences the organs with large energy consumption, such as the brain. Mitochondria contain their own circular genome (mtDNA), which encodes essential proteins/RNAs involved in oxidative phosphorylation. The maternal inheritance of mtDNA, combined with a higher risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD) observed in females, suggest mtDNA may have a role in AD.
