Full Anatomical Recovery of the Dopaminergic System after a Complete Spinal Cord Injury in Lampreys

Neural Plasticity, 2015
Following a spinal injury, lampreys at first are paralyzed below the level of transection. However, they recover locomotion after several weeks, and this is accompanied by the regeneration of descending axons from the brain and the production of new ...

Dopaminergic neurodegeneration in the substantia nigra is associated with olfactory dysfunction in mice models of Parkinson’s disease

Cell Death Discovery, 2023
Olfactory dysfunction represents a prodromal stage in Parkinson’s disease (PD). However, the mechanisms underlying hyposmia are not specified yet.

Optical dopamine monitoring with dLight1 reveals mesolimbic phenotypes in a mouse model of neurofibromatosis type 1

eLife, 2019
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is an autosomal dominant disorder whose neurodevelopmental symptoms include impaired executive function, attention, and spatial learning and could be due to perturbed mesolimbic dopaminergic circuitry.

Analysis of pacemaker activity in a two-component model of some brainstem neurons [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
Serotonergic, noradrenergic and dopaminergic brainstem (including midbrain) neurons, often exhibit spontaneous and fairly regular spiking with frequencies of order a few Hz, though dopaminergic and noradrenergic neurons only exhibit such pacemaker-type activity in vitro or in vivo under special conditions.

The BE (2)-M17 cell line has a better dopaminergic phenotype than the traditionally used for Parkinson´s research SH-SY5Y, which is mostly serotonergic

IBRO Neuroscience Reports, 2022
SH-SY5Y is a cell line derived from human neuroblastoma. It is one of the most widely used in vitro models to study Parkinson’s disease. Surprisingly, it has been found that it does not develop a dopaminergic phenotype after differentiation, questioning ...

Long-Term Effects of Maternal Deprivation on the Volume of Dopaminergic Nuclei and Number of Dopaminergic Neurons in Substantia Nigra and Ventral Tegmental Area in Rats

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2020
Early life adversities leave long-lasting structural and functional consequences on the brain, which may persist later in life. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that is extremely important in mood and motor control. The aim of this study was to investigate

A neuroeconomic theory of rational addiction and nonlinear time-perception [PDF]

Neuro Endocrinol Lett. 2011;32(3):221-225, 2011
Neuroeconomic conditions for "rational addiction" (Becker and Murphy, 1988) have been unknown. This paper derived the conditions for "rational addiction" by utilizing a nonlinear time-perception theory of "hyperbolic" discounting, which is mathematically equivalent to the q-exponential intertemporal choice model based on Tsallis' statistics.

Confocal analysis of cholinergic and dopaminergic inputs onto pyramidal cells in the prefrontal cortex of rodents

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2010
Cholinergic and dopaminergic projections to the rat medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) are both involved in cognitive functions including attention. These neuronal systems modulate mPFC neuronal activity mainly through diffuse transmission.

Creativity and Delusions: A Neurocomputational Approach [PDF]

arXiv, 2000
Thinking is one of the most interesting mental processes. Its complexity is sometimes simplified and its different manifestations are classified into normal and abnormal, like the delusional and disorganized thought or the creative one. The boundaries between these facets of thinking are fuzzy causing difficulties in medical, academic, and ...
