A Stochastic Optimal Control Model with Internal Feedback and Velocity Tracking for Saccades [PDF]
A stochastic optimal control based model with velocity tracking and internal feedback for saccadic eye movements is presented in this paper. Recent evidence from neurophysiological studies of superior colliculus suggests the presence of a dynamic input to the saccade generation system that encodes saccade velocity, rather than just the saccade ...

Effect of Unilateral Acoustic Trauma on Neuronal Firing Activity in the Inferior Colliculus of Mice
Neural hyperactivity induced by sound exposure often correlates with the development of hyperacusis and/or tinnitus. In laboratory animals, hyperactivity is typically induced by unilateral sound exposure to preserve one ear for further testing of hearing

GATA Transcription Factors: A Cross‐Road for Erythropoiesis, Neurodevelopment, and Synucleinopathies
ABSTRACT Alpha‐synuclein (α‐syn), a 140 amino acid protein, is abundantly expressed in the central nervous system (CNS) and in the erythrocytes, playing a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD) and other synucleinopathies.

Whole Brain Monosynaptic Input of Distinct Neurons in the Globus Pallidus Externa
Our results reveal the similarities and differences in the input projections to the two types of GABAergic neurons in the globus pallidus externa (GPe) and lay the neuroanatomic groundwork for further studies to explore the critical physiological functions of GPe.

During brain activation triggered by sensory stimulation, mental activity, or physical work, nonoxidative metabolism of glucose (CMRglc‐non‐ox, where subscripts ‐n and ‐a denote the rate in neurons and astrocytes, respectively) and glycogen are disproportionately upregulated compared with the cellular rates of oxidative metabolism of glucose (CMRglc‐ox)

By investigating auditory hyperexcitability in a mouse model for hereditary deafness, this study identified a subpopulation of afferent neurons of the auditory nerve marked by Otogl expression. Despite their apparently normal hearing, Otogl+/− mice display poor activation of afferent neurons processing loud sounds and an elevation of the middle the ear

Response and noise correlations to complex natural sounds in the auditory midbrain [PDF]
How natural communication sounds are spatially represented across the inferior colliculus, the main center of convergence for auditory information in the midbrain, is not known. The neural representation of the acoustic stimuli results from the interplay of locally differing input and the organization of spectral and temporal neural preferences that ...

GABA(A)-mediated inhibition modulates stimulus-specific adaptation in the inferior colliculus. [PDF]
The ability to detect novel sounds in a complex acoustic context is crucial for survival. Neurons from midbrain through cortical levels adapt to repetitive stimuli, while maintaining responsiveness to rare stimuli, a phenomenon called stimulus-specific ...
