Constancy and trade-offs in the neuroanatomical and metabolic design of the cerebral cortex [PDF]
Mammalian brains span about 4 orders of magnitude in cortical volume and have to operate in different environments that require diverse behavioral skills. Despite these geometric and behavioral diversities, the examination of cerebral cortex across species reveals that it contains a substantial number of conserved characteristics that are associated ...

Co-transmission of acetylcholine and GABA regulates hippocampal states
Acetylcholine (ACh) release in the central nervous system is thought to be unitary and mediated non-synaptically in volume transmission. Here, Takács and colleagues show cholinergic terminals juxtapose GABAergic synapses anatomically and functionally ...

Automatically parcellating the human cerebral cortex.
We present a technique for automatically assigning a neuroanatomical label to each location on a cortical surface model based on probabilistic information estimated from a manually labeled training set.

Multiple conserved regulatory domains promote Fezf2 expression in the developing cerebral cortex. [PDF]
BackgroundThe genetic programs required for development of the cerebral cortex are under intense investigation. However, non-coding DNA elements that control the expression of developmentally important genes remain poorly defined. Here we investigate the

The cerebellum and motor dysfunction in neuropsychiatric disorders [PDF]
The cerebellum is densely interconnected with sensory-motor areas of the cerebral cortex, and in man, the great expansion of the association areas of cerebral cortex is also paralleled by an expansion of the lateral cerebellar hemispheres.

BMP signaling alters aquaporin-4 expression in the mouse cerebral cortex
Aquaporin-4 (AQP4) is a predominant water channel expressed in astrocytes in the mammalian brain. AQP4 is crucial for the regulation of homeostatic water movement across the blood–brain barrier (BBB).

Connections of the Cerebral Cortex [PDF]
This book deals with a Marchi study of the corticifugal and corticipetal connections of the monkey's cerebral cortex, excluding the lateral frontal region (which was covered by Krieg in the Journal of Comparative Neurology in 1949). Krieg has developed his own idiom for expressing his results and this includes delineation in a kind of perspective ...

Rer1-mediated quality control system is required for neural stem cell maintenance during cerebral cortex development. [PDF]
Rer1 is a retrieval receptor for endoplasmic reticulum (ER) retention of various ER membrane proteins and unassembled or immature components of membrane protein complexes.

Selective neuronal damage and Wisconsin Card Sorting Test performance in atherosclerotic occlusive disease of the major cerebral artery [PDF]
In atherosclerotic internal carotid artery (ICA) or middle cerebral artery (MCA) disease, selective neuronal damage can be detected as a decrease in central benzodiazepine receptors (BZRs) in the normal-appearing cerebral cortex.
