Decision time, slow inhibition, and theta rhythm [PDF]
In this paper, we examine decision making in a spiking neuronal network and show that longer time constants for the inhibitory neurons can decrease the reaction times and produce theta rhythm.We analyze the mechanism and find that the spontaneous firing

Serotonin 2C receptors (5-HT2CRs) are implicated in the pathomechanism and treatment of anxiety and depression. Recently, as a new biomarker of depression, alterations in the gamma power of the electroencephalogram (EEG) have been suggested.

Altered excitatory-inhibitory balance in the NMDA-hypofunction model of schizophrenia
Schizophrenia is a common psychiatric disorder of high incidence, affecting approximately 1% of the world population. The essential neurotransmitter pathology of schizophrenia remains poorly defined, despite huge advances over the past half-century in ...

Cortical gamma rhythms modulate NMDAR-mediated spike timing dependent plasticity in a biophysical model. [PDF]
Spike timing dependent plasticity (STDP) has been observed experimentally in vitro and is a widely studied neural algorithm for synaptic modification.

The contribution of electrical synapses to field potential oscillations in the hippocampal formation
Electrical synapses are a type of cellular membrane junction referred to as gap junctions (GJs). GJs have been regarded as an important component within the neuronal networks that underlie synchronous neuronal activity and field potential oscillations ...

The influence of external and internal motor processes on human auditory rhythm perception [PDF]
Musical rhythm is composed of organized temporal patterns, and the processes underlying rhythm perception are found to engage both auditory and motor systems.

Turning a Negative into a Positive: Ascending GABAergic Control of Cortical Activation and Arousal
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the main inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain. Recent technological advances have illuminated the role of GABAergic neurons in control of cortical arousal and sleep.

Introduction Spontaneous oscillations in the somatosensory cortex, especially of the alpha (8 − 14 Hz) and gamma (60 − 80 Hz) frequencies, affect tactile perception; moreover, these oscillations can be selectively modulated by frequency‐matched ...

BackgroundThe number of patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) worldwide is increasing yearly, but the existing treatment methods have poor efficacy. Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) is a new treatment for AD, but the offline effect of
