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 ...

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 of the Mouse Lateral Habenula [PDF]

Journal of Comparative Neurology, 2014
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 ...

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.

Comparison of 3D model–based and slide-based teaching for afferent and efferent spinal cord pathways: a pre-test/post-test study [PDF]

BMC Medical Education
Background Understanding the organization of afferent and efferent spinal cord pathways can be challenging for students due to their complex spatial relationships. This study aimed to develop a three-dimensional (3D) educational model demonstrating these

Optimizing Speech Recognition Using a Computational Model of Human Hearing: Effect of Noise Type and Efferent Time Constants

IEEE Access, 2020
Physiological and psychophysical methods allow for an extended investigation of ascending (afferent) neural pathways from the ear to the brain in mammals, and their role in enhancing signals in noise.

The efferent pathway hypothesis—A mini-review on conditioned immune enhancement [PDF]

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience
Conditioned immune responses demonstrate that learned sensory cues can modulate peripheral immunity without re-exposure to the original immunological trigger. In 2026, this research area reaches the centennial of early Pavlovian immune-reflex experiments

Primary and motile cilia in the efferent ductules: a role for IFT88 in maintaining male fertility [PDF]

Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences
The efferent ductules are male reproductive tubules that support fertility by reabsorbing fluid and transporting sperm from testis to the epididymis. They are lined with multiciliated cells (MCCs) and reabsorptive primary ciliated cells (RPCCs).
