In his early work, Greenberg, a neuroscientist at Harvard Medical School, identified the cFos gene and its associated protein, a transcription factor known as Fos. He went on to show that neuronal ...

The researchers show that during learning events, such as fear conditioning, a subset of astrocytes in the brain expresses the c-Fos gene. Astrocytes expressing c-Fos subsequently regulate circuit ...

They then tested these peptides in the neuronal Neuroscreen-1 (NS-1) cell line and the β-cell line INS1 to investigate their biological effects, focusing on their ability to induce Fos, a gene ...
