Circuits for self-motion estimation and walking control in Drosophila
Curr Opin Neurobiol. 2023 Jul 13;81:102748. doi: 10.1016/j.conb.2023.102748. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe brain's evolution and operation are inextricably linked to animal movement, and critical functions, such as motor control, spatial perception, and navigation, rely on precise knowledge of body movement. Such internal estimates of self-motion emerge from the integration of mechanosensory and visual feedback with motor-related signals. Thus, this internal representation likely depends on the activity of circuits distributed across the central nervous system. However, the circuits responsible for self-motion estimati...

Estrogen-responsive neural circuits governing male and female mating behavior in mice
Curr Opin Neurobiol. 2023 Jul 6;81:102749. doi: 10.1016/j.conb.2023.102749. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDecades of knockout analyses have highlighted the crucial involvement of estrogen receptors and downstream genes in controlling mating behaviors. More recently, advancements in neural circuit research have unveiled a distributed subcortical network comprising estrogen-receptor or estrogen-synthesis-enzyme-expressing cells that transforms sensory inputs into sex-specific mating actions. This review provides an overview of the latest discoveries on estrogen-responsive neurons in various brain regions and the associated n...
