Excitatory neuronal connectivity in the barrel cortex [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2012 Neocortical areas are believed to be organised into vertical modules, the cortical columns, and the horizontal layers 1 to 6. In the somatosensory barrel cortex these columns are defined by the readily discernible barrel structure in layer 4 ...

Left Barrel Cortical Neurons Activity following Transplantation of Stem Cells into Right Lesioned-Barrel Cortex in Rats [PDF]
Cell Journal, 2023 Objective: Stem cells (SCs) can improve the functional defects of brain injury. Rodents use their whiskers to get tactileinformation from their surroundings.

A radial map of multi-whisker correlation selectivity in the rat barrel cortex
Nature Communications, 2016 Barrel cortex contains a functional map of whiskers but how neuronal activity maps multi-whisker inputs has not been studied. Here the authors show that while uncorrelated multi-whisker stimuli activate barrel neurons, correlated multi-whisker inputs ...

Modulatory Effects of Memantine on Neuronal Response Properties in Rat Barrel Cortex [PDF]
Basic and Clinical Neuroscience, 2021 Introduction: Memantine as N-Methyl-D-Aspartic Acid (NMDA) receptor antagonist is used in some neurological disorders. Moreover, memantine presents modulatory effects on the somatosensory information processing in healthy subjects.

A requirement for astrocyte IP3R2 signaling for whisker experience-dependent depression and homeostatic upregulation in the mouse barrel cortex [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022 Changes to sensory experience result in plasticity of synapses in the cortex. This experience-dependent plasticity (EDP) is a fundamental property of the brain.

Molecular Brain, 2021 The rodent whisker-barrel cortex system has been established as an ideal model for studying sensory information integration. The barrel cortex consists of barrel and septa columns that receive information input from the lemniscal and paralemniscal ...

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2022 Communication between cortical areas contributes importantly to sensory perception and cognition. On the millisecond time scale, information is signaled from one brain area to another by action potentials propagating across long-range axonal ...

Sustained Enhancement of Lateral Inhibitory Circuit Maintains Cross Modal Cortical Reorganization. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Deprivation of one modality can lead to the improvement of other intact modalities. We have previously reported that visual deprivation drives AMPA receptors into synapses from layer4 to 2/3 in the barrel cortex and sharpens functional whisker-barrel map

Cell Reports, 2023 Summary: GABAergic interneurons represent ∼15% to 20% of all cortical neurons, but their diversity grants them unique roles in cortical circuits. In the barrel cortex, responses of excitatory neurons to stimulation of facial whiskers are direction ...
