We investigated how genes associated with #WilliamsSyndrome (WS) influence the ability to discriminate #quantities using the #zebrafish model 🐟

Congrats Janis!! And congrats Alexi too. I wish I could have been there to celebrate!!

New @maxplanck.de study: We looked for left-right differences of gene expression and cell-type abundances in the brains of MICE 🐭using Xenium @10xgenomics.bsky.social. Possible clues to how functional brain asymmetry is supported !! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Short thread below ⬇️

Dr Abellan-Álvaro @mariadoe.bsky.social is doing an amazing job with her poster S02-14 on #Behaviour & #Molecular consequences of #Pesticides exposure on #Zebrafish. Thanks to @SENC_ @JovInvest_SENC for supporting her with a #SENCTravelGrant

Gràcies a tu pel teu suport amb tot!!

Zebrafish exposed to a cocktail of pesticides during early development display long-lasting neurobehavioral alterations - Archives of Toxicology The widespread use of pesticides is increasing the presence of environmental contaminants with potential impacts on biodiversity, ecosystems, and human health. Although long-term pesticide effects hav...

New paper out! We show #zebrafish exposed to a cocktail of #pesticides during early development display long-lasting neurobehavioral alterations. check it here: doi.org/10.1007/s002...

L’estrès en la infància altera la morfologia de cèl·lules cerebrals del sistema immune en ratolins amb una mutació vinculada a la síndrome de Rett

La micròglia actua com la principal línia de defensa immunitària del cervell i la medul·la espinal.

Thanks Jose for the work!
Step by step, knowing a little bit more about #Mecp2 and the consequences of its loss #Rett

Altered Microglial Plasticity in the Periaqueductal Grey of Pre-Symptomatic Mecp2-Heterozygous Mice Following Early-Life Stress - NeuroMolecular Medicine Rett syndrome (RTT), a severe neurodevelopmental disorder primarily affecting girls, is commonly caused by MECP2 loss-of-function mutations. Key symptoms include motor impairments, typical hand stereo...

🧠 New research out in NeuroMolecular Medicine: We show that early-life stress disrupts #microglia adaptability in the periaqueductal grey of #Mecp2-heterozygous mice before symptom onset. doi.org/10.1007/s120...

The transition to adulthood, but not motherhood, accelerates the maturation of a population of neurons in the olfactory cortex A research team from the Universitat de València analysed in mice the maturation process of a population of neurons that are generated during embryonic development and remain in an immature state in t...

The density of doublecortin cells in the piriform cortex is affected by transition to adulthood but not first pregnancy in mice - Brain Structure and Function Brain Structure and Function - Motherhood is a critical period modulating behavioural changes to favour survival in mammals. In mice, olfaction is a key driver of social behaviours, and adult...

Our latest paper is finally on-line: we found that immature neurons in the piriform cortex follow an anteroposterior gradient of maturation with age, but are not significantly affected by motherhood. First paper of the PhD Thesis of Rafa Esteve!
