Synaptic-like transmission between neural axons and arteriolar smooth muscle cells drives cerebral neurovascular coupling

In the CNS, glutamatergic neurons directly control functional hyperemia via synaptic-like transmission onto arteriolar smooth muscle cells. Inhibiting this process reduces brain atrophy following cerebral ischemia.

Optochemical control of slow-wave sleep in the nucleus accumbens of male mice by a photoactivatable allosteric modulator of adenosine A_2A receptors

The nucleus accumbens integrates sleep and motivation in mice. Here, the authors show sleep induction by increasing the activity of extracellular adenosine from astrocytes and neurons at A_2A receptors with a photoactivatable allosteric modulator.

Fully printed zero-static power MoS₂ switch coded reconfigurable graphene metasurface for RF/microwave electromagnetic wave manipulation and control

Here, the authors fabricate printed Ag/MoS₂/Ag heterostructures that can be used as zero-static power switches. When combined with a printed graphene metasurface, the platform enables reconfigurable electromagnetic wave manipulation and control.

Lateral septum adenosine A_2A receptors control stress-induced depressive-like behaviors via signaling to the hypothalamus and habenula

The mechanism underlying caffeine consumption inversely correlation with depression is unclear. Here, authors identified adenosine A2A receptor in the lateral septum mediating depressive symptoms via direct outputs to the habenula and the hypothalamus.
