An Investigation of Sleep Macro‐ and Microarchitecture by APOE Genotype

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objectives Apolipoprotein E ε4 (APOE ε4), a robust genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD) is associated with functional connectivity deficits and amyloid pathology in brain regions involved in sleep regulation. Thus, alterations in sleep architecture may be one pathway through which ε4 contributes to Alzheimer's disease vulnerability. However,

Isolation and Culturing of Rat Primary Embryonic Basal Forebrain Cholinergic Neurons (BFCNs)

Bio-Protocol, 2017
The basal forebrain is located close to the medial and ventral surfaces of the cerebral hemispheres that develop from the sub-pallium. It regulates multiple processes including attention, learning, memory and sleep.

Galanin immunoreactivity within the primate basal forebrain: Evolutionary change between monkeys and apes

, 1993
Galanin immunoreactivity (GAL‐ir) is differentially expressed within the basal forebrain of monkeys and humans. Most monkey magnocellular basal forebrain neurons colocalize GAL‐ir.

Much more than their fangs: Macroscopic anatomy of the brain of Bothrops moojeni Hoge 1966 (Squamata, Serpentes, Viperidae)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuroanatomical research has progressed considerably in several vertebrate lineages, yet studies of reptilian brain morphology remain markedly underdeveloped. Here we provide the first description of macroscopic brain anatomy and its ontogeny in the viperid Bothrops moojeni, based on a sample of seven individuals.

Basal forebrain thermoregulatory mechanism modulates auto-regulated sleep

Frontiers in Neurology, 2012
Regulation of body temperature and sleep are two physiological mechanisms that are vital for our survival. Interestingly neural structures implicated in both these functions are common.

Cholinergic cell densities in basal forebrain.

, 2016
Cell densities of ChAT-positive neurons in basal forebrain from ChAT-Cre, ChAT-Cre/Ai32(ChR2-YFP), ChAT-Cre/Ai35(Arch-GFP) and C57BL/6J (WT) mice. Each bar represents mean ± SEM cell density from 3 mice.

Redescription of the Triassic cynodont Cistecynodon parvus and reassessment of its phylogeny

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Cynodontia is an important subclade of Therapsida that first occurred in the late Permian. It includes extinct subclades which are the non‐mammaliaform cynodonts and Mammaliaformes, with the latter ultimately giving rise to crown mammals. The systematics of non‐mammaliaform cynodonts has been extensively studied and is relatively well‐resolved,

Exceptional preservation informs the paleobiology of tapinocephalid dinocephalians

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The tapinocephalid dinocephalian Moschops is one of the most iconic taxa of the middle Permian, yet its paleobiology remains one of the least well‐known. Here, we address some aspects of paleoneurology and paleobiology of Moschops using CT scanning of four well preserved skulls from the upper Abrahamskraal Formation of South Africa. Two of the

Animal empathy reconsidered: a multidimensional profile account

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Empathy is the glue that holds societies together and yet several fundamental questions about empathy persist. What is empathy (the definitional question)? Is it uniquely human and, if not, which nonhuman animals possess empathy (the distribution question)? Which type or quality of empathy is realized in different species (the quality question)
