- #ResultatScientifique🔎| Quand le transport subcellulaire façonne la mémoire ✍️ @npanayotis.bsky.social 🤝 @cnrs-idf-villejuif.bsky.social @upcite.bsky.social @sppin-cnrs.bsky.social 📕 buff.ly/WEafAex
- 🧠 New in #ScienceSignaling A collaborative study involving @npanayotis.bsky.social show that Importin β1, best known for nuclear transport or peripheral nerve growth is essential for presynaptic plasticity, local translation, and memory formation in the hippocampus. 🧵 Read the thread by Nicolas 👇
- Very happy to share our new paper in #ScienceSignaling revealing that importin β1 isn’t just important for nuclear transport or neuronal growth. We now show it is key for presynaptic plasticity in the hippocampus, local translation, and memory! www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
- Thanks to @npanayotis.bsky.social, one of our lab's team leaders, for this well-deserved cover.
