👉👉new paper alert from @labluthi.bsky.social - so proud for talented and determined Dr.Najma Cherrad who opened the lab‘s access to brain-body communication! #sleep #locuscoeruleus #parasympathetic @fbm-unil.bsky.social
Vagal afferent activation induces a NREM-sleep-like state with brain-body cooling, but locus coeruleus activation https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.03.14.643122v1

Our follow-up study on the orexin↔dopamine neuronal interplay is here to share! We discover opposite action of #hypocretin/orexin A vs B via #OX1R vs #OX2R on VTADA cell excitability +demonstrate striking distinct impact of DA cell Ox1 vs 2R loss on mouse behavior in socioemotional&cognitive domain
Divergent modulation of dopaminergic neurons by hypocretin/orexin receptors-1 and -2 shapes dopaminergic cell activity and socio-emotional behavior
Many neuropsychiatric disorders involve dysregulation of the dopaminergic (DA) input to the forebrain. Of particular relevance are DA projections originating from the midbrain ventral tegmental area (...
