Amines, Astrocytes, and Arousal [PDF]

open access: yesNeuron, 2017
Amine neurotransmitters, such as noradrenaline, mediate arousal, attention, and reward in the CNS. New data suggest that, from flies to mammals, a major mechanism for amine transmitter action is to raise astrocyte [Ca2+]i and release gliotransmitters that modulate neuronal activity and behavior.

Neural correlates of processing valence and arousal in affective words

open access: yes, 2006
Psychological frameworks conceptualize emotion along 2 dimensions, "valence" and "arousal." Arousal invokes a single axis of intensity increasing from neutral to maximally arousing.

Altered resting-state functional connectivity of insula in children with primary nocturnal enuresis

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
ObjectivePrimary nocturnal enuresis (PNE) is a common developmental condition in school-aged children. The objective is to better understand the pathophysiology of PNE by using insula-centered resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC).MethodsWe ...

Task-induced modulations of neuronal activity along the auditory pathway

open access: yesCell Reports, 2021
Summary: Sensory processing varies depending on behavioral context. Here, we ask how task engagement modulates neurons in the auditory system. We train mice in a simple tone-detection task and compare their neuronal activity during passive hearing and ...

Personality and the EEG: Arousal and emotional arousability

open access: yesPersonality and Individual Differences, 1992
impulsivity and anxiety were derived from a joint analysis of the EPI and Karolinska Scales of Personality (KSP) questionnaires. The results showed, as expected. lower arousal, defined by more posterior theta activity, in impulsive subjects than in non-impulsives. These differences extended across all conditions.

A specific role for the thalamus in mediating the interaction of attention and arousal in humans

open access: yes, 1998
The physiological basis for the interaction of selective attention and arousal is not clearly understood. Here we present evidence in humans that specifically implicates the thalamus in this interaction.
