Cortical inhibitory interneurons control sensory processing [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Neurobiology, 2017
Inhibitory and excitatory neurons form intricate interconnected circuits in the mammalian sensory cortex. Whereas the function of excitatory neurons is largely to integrate and transmit information within and between brain areas, inhibitory neurons are thought to shape the way excitatory neurons integrate information, and they exhibit context-specific ...

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

What checkers actually check: an eye tracking study of inhibitory control and working memory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
<p>Background - Not only is compulsive checking the most common symptom in Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) with an estimated prevalence of 50–80% in patients, but approximately ~15% of the general population reveal subclinical checking ...

「記憶-抑制控制」活動融入語文教學對幼兒 在執行功能與口語理解表現的效果研究 Effects of Memory-Inhibitory Control Activity with Embedded Repeated Read-aloud Programs on Executive Function and Oral Comprehension Ability of Preschoolers

open access: yesJournal of Research in Education Sciences, 2020
本研究旨在探討「記憶-抑制控制」活動融入語文教學對幼兒執行功能與口語理解能力的影響。本研究採準實驗前後測設計,以臺灣東部某公立國小附幼一班及私立幼兒園 55 名 4.8~6 歲中大班幼兒為研究對象,依參與幼兒的年齡及畢保德圖畫詞彙測驗百分等級分數,平均分配至實驗組與對照組。教學實驗前後,兩組幼兒均接受課程本位詞彙理解測驗、口語理解測驗、幼兒語文工作記憶測驗與抑制控制評量(「頭-肩膀-膝-腳趾」評量作業)等四項測 驗。實驗組幼兒接受「記憶-抑制控制」活動融入重複朗讀教學 ...

Sensorimotor and inhibitory control in aging FMR1 premutation carriers

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2023
Aging FMR1 premutation carriers are at risk of developing neurodegenerative disorders, including fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS), and there is a need to identify biomarkers that can aid in identification and treatment of these ...

The role and implications of mammalian cellular circadian entrainment

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
At their most fundamental level, mammalian circadian rhythms occur inside every individual cell. To tell the correct time, cells must align (or ‘entrain’) their circadian rhythm to the external environment. In this review, we highlight how cells entrain to the major circadian cues of light, feeding and temperature, and the implications this has for our

Development in a biologically inspired spinal neural network for movement control [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
In two phases, we develop neural network models of spinal circuitry which self-organises into networks with opponent channels for the control of an antagonistic muscle pair.

Quantifying age‐related changes in mirror overflow in children and adolescents with attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder

open access: yesAnnals of the Child Neurology Society
Objective Children with attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) show excessive mirror overflow (particularly in the nondominant hand); however, patterns of age‐related decrease of overflow remain unclear.

An antisaccade task for measuring the attentional characteristics of social information processing in children with autism spectrum conditions

open access: yesEuropean Psychiatry, 2021
Introduction Autistic Spectrum Condition is often characterized by the presence of deficits in social interaction. An abnormal attentional processing may explain these difficulties, as it has been suggested that individuals with autism spectrum ...

Inhibitory Control at a Synaptic Relay [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 2004
The mammalian medial nucleus of the trapezoid body (MNTB) harbors one of the most powerful terminals in the CNS, the calyx of Held. The mechanisms known to regulate this synaptic relay are relatively ineffective. Here, we report the presence of a remarkably robust and fast-acting glycinergic inhibitory system capable of suppressing calyceal ...
