Cholecystokinin Modulates Corticostriatal Transmission and Plasticity in Rodents.
Article in eNeuro, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Recent findings have shifted the view of cholecystokinin (CCK) from being a cellular neuronal marker to being recognized as a crucial neuropeptide pivotal in synaptic plasticity and memory processes. Despite its now appreciated importance in various brain regions and abundance in the basal ganglia, its role in the striatum, which is vital for motor control, remains unclear. This study sought to fill this gap by performing a comprehensive investigation of the role of CCK in modulating striatal medium spiny neuron (MSN) membrane properties, as well as the secondary somatosensory cortex S2 to MSN synaptic transmission and plasticity in rodents. Using in vivo optopatch-clamp recording in mice on identified MSNs, we showed that the application of CCK receptor Type 2 (CCK2R) antagonists decreases corticostriatal transmission in both direct and indirect pathway MSNs. Moving to an ex vivo rat preparation to maximize experimental access, we showed that CCK2R inhibition impacts MSN membrane properties by reducing spike threshold and rheobase, suggesting an excitability increase. Moreover, CCK modulates corticostriatal transmission mainly via CCK2R, and CCK2R blockage shifted spike-timing-dependent plasticity from long-term potentiation to long-term depression. Our study advances the understanding of CCK's importance in modulating corticostriatal transmission. By showing how CCK2R blockade influences synaptic function and plasticity, we provide new insights into the mechanisms underlying striatal functions, opening new paths for exploring its potential relevance to neurological disorders involving basal ganglia-related behaviors.
