New work on neuropeptide co-modulation in the STG: Xinping Li's thesis work shows that neuromodulatory effects on synapses are linearly additive, but effects on voltage-gated ion channels are not... manuscript uploaded to bioRxiv:

Distinct co-modulation rules of synaptic and voltage-gated currents coordinates interactions of multiple neuromodulators Different neuromodulators usually activate distinct receptors but can have overlapping targets. Consequently, circuit output depends on neuromodulator interactions at shared targets, a poorly understood process. We explored quantitative rules of co-modulation of two principal targets: voltage-gated....

Farzan Nadim and Dirk Bucher just got awarded a 5 year R01 grant renewal from the National Institute of Mental Health, "Neuromodulation of Neuronal Oscillations". The objective is to study co-modulatory effects of neuropeptides on neuron, synapse, and circuit function.
