Experience-dependent structural rearrangements of synaptic connectivity in the adult central nervous system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The functioning of the brain critically relies on its capacity to adapt and respond to its environment. The brain’s ability to change in response to experience is called plasticity and underlies principal brain functions, such as learning and memory ...

Notch1 mediates postnatal neurogenesis in hippocampus enhanced by intermittent hypoxia

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2014
Notch1 is a transcription factor on the membrane and regulates various stages of neurogenesis. Recently, studies have shown that in vitro neurogenesis is enhanced by hypoxia, and there is cross-coupling between Notch and hypoxia signaling pathways in ...

The Plastic Brain

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2000
is the term used to describethe developing brain’s ability to organize its circuitryand subsequent function based on the activity patternsit receives. This form of plasticity decreases as thebrain matures, providing both advantages and disad-vantages to the organism.

Phase dependent modulation of tremor amplitude in essential tremor through thalamic stimulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
High frequency deep brain stimulation of the thalamus can help ameliorate severe essential tremor. Here we explore how the efficacy, efficiency and selectivity of thalamic deep brain stimulation might be improved in this condition.

Tai Chi Chuan vs General Aerobic Exercise in Brain Plasticity: A Multimodal MRI Study

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
This study contrasted the impact of Tai Chi Chuan and general aerobic exercise on brain plasticity in terms of an increased grey matter volume and functional connectivity during structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) and resting-state functional ...

Branch-specific plasticity enables self-organization of nonlinear computation in single neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
It has been conjectured that nonlinear processing in dendritic branches endows individual neurons with the capability to perform complex computational operations that are needed in order to solve for example the binding problem.

Impairment of DHA synthesis alters the expression of neuronal plasticity markers and the brain inflammatory status in mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is a ω-3 fatty acid typically obtained from the diet or endogenously synthesized through the action of elongases (ELOVLs) and desaturases.

Functional Brain Plasticity Associated with ACL Injury: A Scoping Review of Current Evidence

open access: yesJournal of Neural Transplantation and Plasticity, 2019
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is a common problem with consequences ranging from chronic joint instability to early development of osteoarthritis.

Brain Plasticity and Neurorestoration by Environmental Enrichment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In the adult mammalian brain, neural-lineage cells are continuously generated in the subventricular zone (SVZ) and dentate gyrus of the hippocampus. These cells in vivo arising from the adult SVZ may be regulated by environmental enrichment (EE). EE is a
