Development of visual response selectivity in cortical GABAergic interneurons

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Excitatory neurons in the carnivore and primate visual cortex display orientation selectivity arranged in a modular fashion before the onset of visual experience, but the developmental timeline for visual response selectivity of inhibitory neurons is ...

Profiles of learner readers and their early literacy skills and environmental predictors: a large-scale longitudinal study from preschool to grade 1

open access: yesFrontiers in Education, 2023
As part of the French national cohort ELFE, a two-year longitudinal study was conducted and children’s literacy skills were assessed twice (N = 2,767), namely at the end of preschool (t1) and at the end of Grade 1 (t2). At t1, letter-name knowledge (LNK),

The High Potential of Computer-Based Reading Assessment

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Learning and Technology, 2020
The aim of this study is to propose advantages provided by computerized tools when assessing reading ability. A new computer-based reading assessment evaluating both word reading and reading comprehension processes was administered to 687 children in ...

“Vitamin D Deficiency Is More Common in Women with Autoimmune Thyroiditis: A Retrospective Study”

open access: yesInternational Journal of Endocrinology, 2021
Background. Vitamin D is a hormone that is mainly produced in the skin upon ultraviolet B radiation exposure and has important influence on various organs. In recent years, data have been collected that vitamin D deficiency plays an important role in the

Effects of bright light therapy on neuroinflammatory and neuroplasticity markers in a diurnal rodent model of Seasonal Affective Disorder

open access: yesAnnals of Medicine, 2023
Background Bright light therapy (BLT) is widely used for treating Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). However, the neural mechanisms underlying the therapeutic effects of BLT remain largely unexplored.

Aberrant survival of hippocampal Cajal-Retzius cells leads to memory deficits, gamma rhythmopathies and susceptibility to seizures in adult mice

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Cajal-Retzius cells (CRs) are transient neurons, disappearing almost completely in the postnatal neocortex by programmed cell death (PCD), with a percentage surviving up to adulthood in the hippocampus. Here, we evaluate CR’s role in the establishment of

On the accuracy of cell-attached current-clamp recordings from cortical neurons

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
Cell-attached current-clamp (CA/CC) recordings have been proposed to measure resting membrane potential and synaptic/agonist responses in neurons without disrupting the cell membrane, thus avoiding the intracellular dialysis that occurs in conventional ...

Cortical Hub for Flavor Sensation in Rodents

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2021
The experience of eating is inherently multimodal, combining intraoral gustatory, olfactory, and somatosensory signals into a single percept called flavor.

Cervicovestibular rehabilitation in adult with mild traumatic brain injury: a randomised controlled trial protocol

open access: yesBMC Sports Science, Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2019
Background Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is an acknowledged public health problem. Up to 25% of adult with mTBI present persistent symptoms. Headache, dizziness, nausea and neck pain are the most commonly reported symptoms and are frequently ...

Co-transmission of acetylcholine and GABA regulates hippocampal states

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
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 ...
