Recent Advances in the Understanding of Specific Efferent Pathways Emerging From the Cerebellum [PDF]

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2021
The cerebellum has a long history in terms of research on its network structures and motor functions, yet our understanding of them has further advanced in recent years owing to technical developments, such as viral tracers, optogenetic and chemogenetic ...

Baseline Cerebro-Cerebellar Functional Connectivity in Afferent and Efferent Pathways Reveal Dissociable Improvements in Visuomotor Learning [PDF]

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Visuomotor coordination is a complex process involving several brain regions, primarily the cerebellum and motor cortex. Studies have shown inconsistent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rsfMRI) results in the cerebellar cortex and ...

Efferent pathways of the mouse lateral habenula. [PDF]

J Comp Neurol, 2015
ABSTRACTThe lateral habenula (LHb) is part of the habenula complex of the dorsal thalamus. Recent studies of the LHb have focused on its projections to the ventral tegmental area (VTA) and rostromedial tegmental nucleus (RMTg), which contain γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA)ergic neurons that mediate reward prediction error via inhibition of dopaminergic ...

Stress induces divergent gene expression among lateral habenula efferent pathways [PDF]

Neurobiology of Stress, 2020
The lateral habenula (LHb) integrates critical information regarding aversive stimuli that shapes decision making and behavioral responses. The three major LHb outputs innervate dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN), ventral tegmental area (VTA), and the ...

Efferent pathways in sodium overload-induced renal vasodilation in rats. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Hypernatremia stimulates the secretion of oxytocin (OT), but the physiological role of OT remains unclear. The present study sought to determine the involvement of OT and renal nerves in the renal responses to an intravenous infusion of hypertonic saline.

Ventral pallidum efferent pathways via mediodorsal thalamus and lateral habenula mediate default mode network regulation [PDF]

iScience
Summary: Transitions between internal and external focus are fundamental to cognition. These shifts depend on the modulation of the default mode network (DMN), of which the ventral pallidum (VP) is a key subcortical node.

Efferent pathways modulate hyperactivity in inferior colliculus. [PDF]

J Neurosci, 2010
Animal models have demonstrated that mild hearing loss caused by acoustic trauma results in spontaneous hyperactivity in the central auditory pathways. This hyperactivity has been hypothesized to be involved in the generation of tinnitus, a phantom auditory sensation.

Single-cell analysis of inhibitory efferent neurons of the zebrafish lateral line. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
The zebrafish lateral line system is a sensory network made up of neuromasts, which contain hair cells to detect water flow. Neuromasts signal via sensory afferent neurons and their activity is modulated by efferent neurons.

Whole-brain efferent projections of glutamatergic neurons in the cingulate cortex of mice [PDF]

Molecular Brain
The cingulate cortex, on the medial cerebral hemisphere, is involved in cognitive processing, emotional regulation, nociception, voluntary motor control, and sleep modulation.

Central efferent pathways for cold‐defensive and febrile shivering

Journal of Physiology, 2011
Non‐technical summary  Shivering is an involuntary somatic motor response that occurs in skeletal muscles to produce heat during exposure to cold environments or during the development of fever. This study describes the brain circuitry mechanism that produces shivering.
