Cortical Plasticity in Depression
Neural plasticity is considered the neurophysiological correlate of learning and memory, although several studies have also noted that it plays crucial roles in a number of neurological and psychiatric diseases.

Cortical and Subcortical Circuits for Cross-Modal Plasticity Induced by Loss of Vision
Cortical areas are highly interconnected both via cortical and subcortical pathways, and primary sensory cortices are not isolated from this general structure.

Cortical plasticity and rehabilitation [PDF]
The brain is constantly adapting to environmental and endogenous changes (including injury) that occur at every stage of life. The mechanisms that regulate neural plasticity have been refined over millions of years. Motivation and sensory experience directly shape the rewiring that makes learning and neurological recovery possible.

The importance of pyramidal tract integrity for cortical plasticity and related functionality in patients with multiple sclerosis [PDF]
BackgroundCortical plasticity induced by quadripulse stimulation (QPS) has been shown to correlate with cognitive functions in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) and to not be reduced compared to healthy controls (HCs ...

Background: Cortical reorganization and plasticity may compensate for structural damage in Multiple Sclerosis (MS). It is important to establish sensitive methods to measure these compensatory mechanisms, as they may be of prognostic value. Objective: To

Neuromodulator timing regulates adult cortical plasticity via the synaptic eligibility trace [PDF]
Introduction: Learning-induced cortical reorganization is facilitated by neuromodulator release. However, the precise temporal relationship between neuromodulator release and neural activity required to induce plasticity is not well understood. In single

SLEEP AND OLFACTORY CORTICAL PLASTICITY [PDF]
In many systems, sleep plays a vital role in memory consolidation and synaptic homeostasis. These processes together help store information of biological significance and reset synaptic circuits to facilitate acquisition of information in the future ...

Motor cortical plasticity in Parkinson’s disease [PDF]
In Parkinson’s disease (PD), there are alterations of the basal ganglia (BG) thalamo-cortical networks, primarily due to degeneration of nigrostrial dopaminergic neurons.
