    Ventral subiculum promotes wakefulness through several pathways in male mice

    The ventral subiculum (vSUB), the major output structure of the hippocampal formation, regulates motivation, stress integration, and anxiety-like behaviors that rely on heightened arousal. However, the roles a...

    PV network plasticity mediated by neuregulin1-ErbB4 signalling controls fear extinction

    Neuroplasticity in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) is essential for fear extinction, the process of which forms the basis of the general therapeutic process used to treat human fear disorders. However, the...

    Infralimbic Endothelin1 Is Critical for the Modulation of Anxiety-Like Behaviors

    Endothelin1 (ET1) is a potent vasoconstrictor that is also known to be a neuropeptide that is involved in neural circuits. We examined the role of ET1 that has been implicated in the anxiogenic process. We fou...

    Enrichment of cardiac differentiation by a large starting number of embryonic stem cells in embryoid bodies is mediated by the Wnt11-JNK pathway

    Embryoid bodies (EBs) with large starting numbers of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) have a greater degree of cardiac differentiation than from low numbers of EBs. However, the biological roles of signaling molecu...

    Time-dependent regulation of neuregulin-1β/ErbB/ERK pathways in cardiac differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells

    Neuregulin-1β (NRG-1β)/ErbB signaling plays crucial roles in the cardiac differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs), but its roles and the underlying mechanisms in cardiac differentiation are incompl...
