Hydrocephalus caused by conditional ablation of the Pten or beta-catenin gene

open access: yesCerebrospinal Fluid Research, 2008
To investigate the roles of Pten and β-Catenin in the midbrain, either the Pten gene or the β-catenin gene was conditionally ablated, using Dmbx1 (diencephalon/mesencephalon-expressed brain homeobox gene 1)-Cre mice.

Detectability index measures of binaural masking level difference across populations of inferior colliculus neurons. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
In everyday life we continually need to detect signals against a background of interfering noise (the “cocktail party effect”): a task that is much easier to accomplish using two ears.

Activation of superior colliculi in humans during visual exploration

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2007
Background Visual, oculomotor, and – recently – cognitive functions of the superior colliculi (SC) have been documented in detail in non-human primates in the past. Evidence for corresponding functions of the SC in humans is still rare.

Segmentation of the C57BL/6J mouse cerebellum in magnetic resonance images [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The C57BL mouse is the centerpiece of efforts to use gene-targeting technology to understand cerebellar pathology, thus creating a need for a detailed magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) atlas of the cerebellum of this strain.

Intercollicular commissural connections refine the representation of sound frequency and level in the auditory midbrain

open access: yeseLife, 2014
Connections unifying hemispheric sensory representations of vision and touch occur in cortex, but for hearing, commissural connections earlier in the pathway may be important.

Ultrastructural examination of the corticocollicular pathway in the guinea pig: a study using electron microscopy, neural tracers, and GABA immunocytochemistry

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2013
Projections from auditory cortex (AC) can alter the responses of cells in the inferior colliculus (IC) to sounds. Most IC cells show excitation and inhibition after stimulation of the AC. AC axons release glutamate and excite their targets, so inhibition

The connections of the inferior colliculus and the organization of the brainstem auditory system in the greater horseshoe bat (Rhinolophus ferrumequinum) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1981
The connections of the inferior colliculus, the mammalian midbrain auditory center, were determined in the greater horseshoe bat (Rhinolophus ferrumequinum), using the horseradish peroxidase method.

Locus coeruleus‐entorhinal cortex tract integrity is linked to plasma tau and glial fibrillary acidic protein

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 21, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Pretangle tau inclusions from the locus coeruleus (LC) are hypothesized to propagate to the entorhinal cortex (EC) via neuron‐to‐neuron transmission along its projections. The lower integrity of the LC‐EC pathway accompanying Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology is supported by post mortem studies, but in vivo evidence remains ...

Vergence Neural Pathways: A Systematic Narrative Literature Review. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Research in the neural pathway for vergence is less understood in comparison to the other four visual eye movements. The aim of this study was to review the literature on vergence neural pathways and associated disorders.

Buried Treasure? Overlooked and Newly Discovered Evolutionary Contributions to Human Brain Diseases

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, Volume 98, Issue 6, Page 1178-1195, December 2025.
[Color figure can be viewed at www.annalsofneurology.org] Recapitulative schema of different exploratory levels of the evolutionary impact on human neurological diseases. Clinical neuroscience focuses on the mechanisms of brain function, but this approach falls short of insights into how the central nervous system (CNS) evolved, both in health and ...
