Loopholes in the DNA contract kill neurons
Nature Neuroscience 20, 1192 (2017).
doi:10.1038/nn.4626
Authors: Karl Herrup, Kai-Hei Tse & Hei-Man Chow
Hexanucleotide repeat expansions in C9orf72 gene locus create double jeopardy, first by leading to DNA–RNA R-loops that spawn double-strand breaks and second by the synthesis of dipeptide repeats that hinder DNA repair. This two-pronged mechanism may explain neurodegeneration in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia. (Source: Nature Neuroscience)

doi:10.1038/nn.4633
Authors: Themasap A. Khan & Sergiu P. Paşca
Zika virus infection is associated with birth defects, including microcephaly, but also with disorders of peripheral nerves. Oh et al. use rodent and human cell models to explore how the virus affects the peripheral nervous system. (Source: Nature Neuroscience)

Memory reactivation improves visual perception
Nature Neuroscience 20, 1325 (2017).
doi:10.1038/nn.4629
Authors: Rotem Amar-Halpert, Rony Laor-Maayany, Shlomi Nemni, Jonathan D Rosenblatt & Nitzan Censor
Human perception thresholds can improve through learning. Here we report findings challenging the fundamental 'practice makes perfect' basis of procedural learning theory, showing that brief reactivations of encoded visual memories are sufficient to improve perceptual discrimination thresholds. Learning was comparable to standard practice-induced learning and was not due to short training per se, nor to an epiphenomenon of primed retrieval enhancement. The ...
