Cheng R, Jagannathan N, Kathrada A, Jesuthasan S, Tucker-Kellogg L
BMC Neurosci . 2024 Apr; 25(Suppl 1):22. PMID: 38627616
Background: The habenula is a major regulator of serotonergic neurons in the dorsal raphe, and thus of brain state. The functional connectivity between these regions is incompletely characterized. Here, we...

Makrogkikas S, Cheng R, Lu H, Roy S
J Neurogenet . 2023 Mar; 37(3):85-92. PMID: 36960824
is predicted to encode a very large type-I transmembrane protein, but its function has largely remained obscure. Recently, it was shown that Pkhdl1l1 is a component of the coat that...

Elazary Y, Cheow K, Cheng R, Ghosh R, Shainer I, Wexler Y, et al.
J Pineal Res . 2023 Jan; 74(3):e12854. PMID: 36692235
Photoreceptors in the vertebrate eye are dependent on the retinal pigmented epithelium for a variety of functions including retinal re-isomerization and waste disposal. The light-sensitive pineal gland of fish, birds,...

Suryadi , Cheng R, Birkett E, Jesuthasan S, Chew L
eNeuro . 2022 Aug; PMID: 35981869
The habenula is an evolutionarily conserved structure of the vertebrate brain that is essential for behavioural flexibility and mood control. It is spontaneously active and is able to access diverse...

Cheng R, Tan J, Chua K, Tan C, Wee C
Front Mol Neurosci . 2022 Jul; 15:900223. PMID: 35813064
Larval zebrafish are often used to model anxiety disorders. However, since it is impossible to recapitulate the full complexity and heterogeneity of anxiety in this model, examining component endophenotypes is...

Basnakova A, Cheng R, Chia J, DAgostino G, Suryadi , Tan G, et al.
Neurobiol Stress . 2021 Oct; 15:100403. PMID: 34632007
The response of an animal to a sensory stimulus depends on the nature of the stimulus and on expectations, which are mediated by spontaneous activity. Here, we ask how circadian...

Jesuthasan S, Krishnan S, Cheng R, Mathuru A
Prog Neuropsychopharmacol Biol Psychiatry . 2020 Sep; 111:110110. PMID: 32950538
Background: Detection of predator cues changes the brain state in prey species and helps them avoid danger. Dysfunctionality in changing the central state appropriately in stressful situations is proposed to...

Ramaswamy M, Cheng R, Jesuthasan S
Eur J Neurosci . 2020 May; 52(8):3918-3928. PMID: 32464693
Habenula neurons are constantly active. The level of activity affects mood and behaviour, with increased activity in the lateral habenula reflecting exposure to punishment and a switch to passive coping...

Zhang S, Reljic B, Liang C, Kerouanton B, Francisco J, Peh J, et al.
Nat Commun . 2020 Mar; 11(1):1312. PMID: 32161263
The emergence of small open reading frame (sORF)-encoded peptides (SEPs) is rapidly expanding the known proteome at the lower end of the size distribution. Here, we show that the mitochondrial...

Cheng R, Liao R
Behav Brain Res . 2019 Nov; 379:112364. PMID: 31739003
Although the striatal dopamine (DA) is reportedly involved in impulsive action, little is known about the DA subtype receptors of dorsal striatum (dSTR) in the impulsive control involved in differential...
