Plasticity in mammalian somatosensory cerebellar maps [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The organization of sensory maps in mammalian brains can change following peripheral injury or experience. Such plasticity has been demonstrated for somatotopic somatosensory maps in various cortical and subcortical areas. In contrast to somatotopic maps,

The actin-binding protein profilin II in neuronal plasticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Activity-dependent plasticity in neurons involves changes in synaptic transmission and connectivity. These changes lead to altered neuronal circuit properties and are thought to underlie learning and memory.

Leaf Morphological Plasticity of Tree Species from Two Developmental Stages in Araucaria Forest

open access: yesBrazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2014
This study compared the morphological and anatomical variations of the leaves of four shade-tolerant tree species Allophylus edulis (St.-Hil.) Radlk (Sapindaceae), Casearia sylvestris Sw. (Salicaceae), Cupania vernalis Cambess.

Structure-function analysis on the level of individual synapses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Excitatory synapses in the mammalian brain are made on small protrusions of the postsynaptic cell called dendritic spines. Dendritic spines are highly variable in their morphology and in their microanatomy (e.g. presence of subsynaptic organelles). It is

A voxelwise approach to determine consensus regions-of-interest for the study of brain network plasticity

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2015
Despite exciting advances in the functional imaging of the brain, it remains a challenge to define regions of interest (ROIs) that do not require investigator supervision and permit examination of change in networks over time (or plasticity).

PARK(ing) time–How park deficiency affects the biological clock in a Drosophila model of Parkinson's disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Drosophila park mutants serve as a model for Parkinson's disease. We used this strain to investigate the connection between oxidative stress and the circadian clock mechanism. We showed that increased oxidative stress affects the physiology of pacemaker cells, disrupting their daily structural plasticity. Lack of rhythmic signaling from pacemaker cells

Polyamine Homeostasis and Morphophysiological Responses to Salinity in Dizygostemon riparius: An Endemic Species from Brazilian ‘Cerrado’ Biome

open access: yesBiology
Dizygostemon riparius is an endemic tropical Brazilian species whose physiological responses to salinity are poorly understood. This study evaluated the effects of NaCl (0, 50, and 100 mM) on in vitro-grown D.

Adaptive leaf anatomical characteristics of Brachiaria ruziziensis genotypes (Poaceae) in different environments - doi: 10.4025/actascibiolsci.v35i4.18265

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2013
Studies on morphological plasticity are extremely important to plant breeding seeking to optimize genotype interactions with their environments. The present study evaluated 38 genotypes of Brachiaria ruziziensis cultivated during the rainy (October to ...
