Gating Input to Visual Cortex by Feedback to LGN [PDF]
, 1998 Anatomical studies have documented massive back-projections from higher to lower visual cortices and to the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN). The large number of synapses from these sources suggest that they should have a profound influence on the ...

Altered white matter connectivity associated with visual hallucinations following occipital stroke [PDF]
, 2018 Introduction: Visual hallucinations that arise following vision loss stem from aberrant functional activity in visual cortices and an imbalance of activity across associated cortical and subcortical networks subsequent to visual pathway damage. We sought

Cytoarchitecture and myeloarchitecture of the sheep auditory cortex
Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.This article describes the cyto‐ and myeloarchitecture of the sheep auditory cortex. It outlines a six‐layered cortical organization, with variations in cellular types and densities. The potential location of the primary auditory cortex is indicated by parvalbumin immunostaining.

N-cadherin acts in concert with Slit1-Robo2 signaling in regulating aggregation of placode-derived cranial sensory neurons [PDF]
, 2009 Vertebrate cranial sensory ganglia have a dual origin from the neural crest and ectodermal placodes. In the largest of these, the trigeminal ganglion, Slit1-Robo2 signaling is essential for proper ganglion assembly.

The futuristic manifolds of REM sleep
Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.Summary Since one of its first descriptions 70 years ago, rapid eye movement sleep has continually inspired and excited new generations of sleep researchers. Despite significant advancements in understanding its neurocircuitry, underlying mechanisms and microstates, many questions regarding its function, especially beyond the early neurodevelopment ...

Explicit and Implicit Processes in Human Aversive Conditioning [PDF]
, 2006 The ability to adapt to a changing environment is central to an organism’s success. The process of associating two stimuli (as in associative conditioning) requires very little in the way of neural machinery.

Oral Microbiome in Systemic Autoimmune Diseases: A Systematic Review
Oral Diseases, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective The oral cavity represents a key but underexplored interface between host immunity and microbial communities. The aim of this systematic review was to synthesize current literature on oral microbiota alterations in systemic autoimmune diseases.

Spindle oscillations are generated in the dorsal thalamus and modulated by the thalamic reticular nucleus [PDF]
, 2008 Spindle waves occur during the early stage of slow wave sleep and are thought to arise in the thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN), causing inhibitory postsynaptic potential spindle-like oscillations in the dorsal thalamus that are propagated to the cortex ...

Altered functional connectivity in lesional peduncular hallucinosis with REM sleep behavior disorder [PDF]
, 2015 Brainstem lesions causing peduncular hallucinosis (PH) produce vivid visual hallucinations occasionally accompanied by sleep disorders. Overlapping brainstem regions modulate visual pathways and REM sleep functions via gating of thalamocortical networks.
