Neuroligin1 in CCK-interneurons gates social memory formation via a disinhibitory microcircuit in the hippocampal CA2 in male mice - Nature Communications
In this study, the authors present that cholecystokinin-positive interneurons (CCK-INs) in hippocampal dorsal CA2 are essential for social memory encoding in male mice by mediating disinhibition of py...

Social interaction triggers #NLG1 proteolysis to generate NLG1-CTD, strengthening synapses and supporting social memory. Blocking this process impairs memory, while peptides can rescue it.

Perhaps the only good thing about this Twitch highlight cap nonsense is that it finally kicked my ass into gear collecting the last sets of highlights into highlight reels for youtube!

Got one more to go after this one! Enjoy some funnies from years ago :)
