    Distinct evolutionary trajectories of two integration centres, the central complex and mushroom bodies, across Heliconiini butterflies

    Max S Farnworth, Yi Peng Toh ... Stephen H Montgomery
    A cognitive adaptation in Heliconius butterflies, accompanied by strikingly divergent changes in two principal insect integration centres, reveals that neural circuits can differ strongly in their propensity for evolutionary change.

    Mural cells protect the adult brain from hemorrhage but do not control the blood–brain barrier in developing zebrafish

    Oguzhan F Baltaci, Andrea Usseglio Gaudi ... Benjamin M Hogan
    Pericytes regulate cerebrovascular development, while vascular smooth muscle cells prevent hemorrhage and blood–brain barrier breakdown at vascular hotspots in juvenile and adult zebrafish.
