Inescapable stressful events often precipitate long-term alterations in emotion-related behaviors and poor sleep quality, with anxiety being a prevalent associated disorder. The defensive burying behavior of rodents is a response to imminent threats that becomes markedly pronounced in response to anxiety. However, the neural foundations of defensive burying behavior and etiology of anxiety remain largely unknown.

Introduction: Most of what is known about thalamic development comes from rodent studies, however, the increased proportion of human association cortex has co-evolved with increased thalamocortical connectivity. Higher order thalamic nuclei, relaying information between cortical regions and important in higher cognitive function, are greatly expanded.

Methods: This study mapped the emergence of thalamic nuclei in human fetal development (8-16 post conceptional weeks; PCW) by revealing gene expression patterns using in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry for previously established thalamic development markers.

Introduction: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the internal globus pallidus (GPi) is a well-established, effective treatment for dystonia. Substantial variability of therapeutic success has been the one of the drivers of an ongoing debate about proper stimulation site and settings, with several indications of the notional sweet spot pointing to the lower GPi or even subpallidal area.

Methods: The presented patient-blinded, random-order study with cross-sectional verification against healthy controls enrolled 17 GPi DBS idiopathic, cervical or generalised dystonia patients to compare the effect of the stimulation in the upper and lower GPi area, with the focus on sensorimotor network connectivity and local activity measured using functional magnetic resonance.

Background: Depression is a prevalent affective disorder, but its pathophysiology remains unclear. Dysfunction in the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-ergic system may contribute to its onset. Recently, antidepressants ( brexanolone, zuranolone) targeting the GABA-A receptor were introduced.
