Real-time activity measurements of genetically identified neuroendocrine vasopressin neurons show they can anticipate osmotic challenges. In this issue of Neuron, Mandelblat-Cerf et al. (2017) show that correlating these results with ongoing behavior and plasma osmolality points to the existence of brain networks that integrate exterosensory cues with interosensory signals to drive neuroendocrine output.
实时记录遗传鉴定的神经内分泌血管升压素神经元的活动表明,它们可以预测渗透压挑战。在本期《神经元》杂志上,Mandelblat-Cerf 等人(2017)的研究表明,将这些结果与正在进行的行为和血浆渗透压相关联,表明存在大脑网络,将外感受线索与内感受信号整合在一起,以驱动神经内分泌输出。
