Mashup Score: 18A map of mouse brain metabolism in aging - 3 year(s) ago
The first atlas of metabolites in the mouse brain has been published by a team led by UC Davis researchers. The dataset includes 1,547 different molecules across 10 brain regions in male and female laboratory mice from adolescence through adulthood and into advanced old age. The work is published Oct. 15 in the Nature Communications. The complete dataset is publicly available at…

Mashup Score: 7Love and hate in the mouse brain - 3 year(s) ago
Mounting behavior, that awkward thrusting motion dogs sometimes do against your leg, is usually associated with sexual arousal in animals, but this is not always the case. New research by Caltech neuroscientists that explores the motivations behind mounting behavior in mice finds that sometimes there is a thin line between love and hate (or anger) in the mouse brain.

Mashup Score: 8How fear persists in the mouse brain - 4 year(s) ago
Most people have experienced, at some point in their lives, a sudden unexpected fright. Even after a shadowy figure in a darkened room turns out to just be a chair, your heart rate is still high, your palms stay sweaty, and your senses remain alert for another threat. This sort of lasting response is an example of a persistent internal state. The phenomenon of persistence is what distinguishes an…

Mashup Score: 7Reward and punishment take similar paths in the mouse brain - 4 year(s) ago
Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) scientists have discovered neurons in the mouse brain that help an animal learn to avoid negative experiences. The cells reside in a part of the brain involved in regulating the motivations that influence behavior.

Mashup Score: 6
Here’s the big question in modern neuroscience: how does structure and activity in the brain relate to function? One of the major ways neuroscientists study the dynamics of those relationships is by measuring neural activity through fluorescent imaging in the mouse brain, a process made difficult by the density of brain tissue and its interwoven and overlapping nerve fibers. Researchers at the…
