At the chromatin level, the induction of neuronal activity-regulated genes is orchestrated through various mechanisms, including the deposition of histone modifications at regulatory elements, the binding of transcriptional activators and repressors, chromatin remodeling, and the control of 3D genome architecture. Here, we review our current understanding of how chromatin mechanisms regulate temporally distinct transcriptional waves following neuronal stimulation and allow neurons to mount cell type-specific and stimulus-specific transcriptional responses. We also highlight a specific epigenetic mechanism in developing neurons that maintains immediate early genes (IEGs) in an inactive though poised state, while simultaneously preparing them for rapid activation in response to sensory stimulation. We discuss how chromatin regulation mechanisms play a crucial role in controlling activity-regulated gene expression, enabling the implementation of precise gene expression programs during different stages of neural circuit development and plasticity.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10999,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Neurobiology","volume":"92 ","pages":"Article 103024"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143851524","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Numerous intriguing mechanisms have been proposed, spanning various levels of the neural system, including molecular, synaptic, neuronal, circuit, and systems-level processes. However, no single mechanism has emerged as universally applicable, highlighting the heterogeneous nature of the genetic and neurobiological underpinnings of ASD. Among these, the NMDA receptor (NMDAR) dysfunction hypothesis has garnered significant attention. Many mouse models exhibit NMDAR dysfunction, with NMDAR hypofunction appearing more prevalent than hyperfunction. Nevertheless, not all mouse models display this dysfunction, suggesting that NMDAR abnormalities may not be ubiquitous across models, or that we have yet to fully explore the spectrum of NMDAR-related dysfunction in ASD. These findings underscore the need to consider multiple factors when studying ASD mouse models, including different mutations within the same gene, gene deletion dosage, genetic background, sex, age, brain regions, cell types, and neural circuits.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10999,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Neurobiology","volume":"92 ","pages":"Article 103023"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143828614","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Chronic recording of VEPs in awake mice have enabled longitudinal study of modifications induced by selective visual experience or deprivation, and these have revealed several novel forms of plasticity. The VEP provides a good estimate of spatial acuity that compares well with values obtained by behavioral approaches.
