Signal transmission through the dark-adapted retina of the toad (Bufo marinus). Gain, convergence, and signal/noise. [PDF]
Responses to light were recorded from rods, horizontal cells, and ganglion cells in dark-adapted toad eyecups. Sensitivity was defined as response amplitude per isomerization per rod for dim flashes covering the excitatory receptive field centers.

Local Immune Control of Latent Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 in Ganglia of Mice and Man
Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is a prevalent human pathogen. HSV-1 genomes persist in trigeminal ganglia neuronal nuclei as chromatinized episomes, while epithelial cells are typically killed by lytic infection. Fluctuations in anti-viral responses,

Extracellular signal-regulated kinases mediate the enhancing effects of inflammatory mediators on resurgent currents in dorsal root ganglion neurons [PDF]
Previously we reported that a group of inflammatory mediators significantly enhanced resurgent currents in dorsal root ganglion neurons. To understand the underlying intracellular signaling mechanism, we investigated the effects of inhibition of ...

Single cell transcriptome profiling of retinal ganglion cells identifies cellular subtypes
Retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) convey the major output of information collected from the eye to the brain. Thirty subtypes of RGCs have been identified to date. Here, we analyze 6225 RGCs (average of 5000 genes per cell) from right and left eyes by single-

Variable Gene Expression in Human Ganglia Latently Infected with Varicella-Zoster Virus
Varicella-Zoster virus (VZV) is a pathogenic human herpes virus that causes varicella (“chicken pox”) as a primary infection, following which it becomes latent in neuronal cells in human peripheral ganglia. It may then reactivate to cause herpes zoster (“

The functional diversity of retinal ganglion cells in the mouse
In the vertebrate visual system, all output of the retina is carried by retinal ganglion cells. Each type encodes distinct visual features in parallel for transmission to the brain. How many such ‘output channels’ exist and what each encodes are areas of

Intra osseous ganglion of scaphoid - Case report
Though wrist pain has many musculoskeletal causes, the intraosseous non traumatic causes are very few. Intraosseous ganglion is an uncommon cause of chronic dull pain in the region of the wrist without any history of past or recent trauma.
