The effect of heterogeneity on decorrelation mechanisms in spiking neural networks: a neuromorphic-hardware study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
High-level brain function such as memory, classification or reasoning can be realized by means of recurrent networks of simplified model neurons. Analog neuromorphic hardware constitutes a fast and energy efficient substrate for the implementation of ...

Whole-brain mapping of long-range inputs to the VIP-expressing inhibitory neurons in the primary motor cortex

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2023
The primary motor cortex (MOp) is an important site for motor skill learning. Interestingly, neurons in MOp possess reward-related activity, presumably to facilitate reward-based motor learning.

Exact firing time statistics of neurons driven by discrete inhibitory noise [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Neurons in the intact brain receive a continuous and irregular synaptic bombardment from excitatory and inhibitory pre-synaptic neurons, which determines the firing activity of the stimulated neuron.

Inhibitory Interplay between Orexin Neurons and Eating [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2016
In humans and rodents, loss of brain orexin/hypocretin (OH) neurons causes pathological sleepiness [1-4], whereas OH hyperactivity is associated with stress and anxiety [5-10]. OH cell control is thus of considerable interest. OH cells are activated by fasting [11, 12] and proposed to stimulate eating [13].

A quantitative study of inhibitory interneurons in laminae I-III of the mouse spinal dorsal horn [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Laminae I-III of the spinal dorsal horn contain many inhibitory interneurons that use GABA and/or glycine as a neurotransmitter. Distinct neurochemical populations can be recognised among these cells, and these populations are likely to have differing ...

Effects of caerulein on the gastric motility of rats. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
The effects of caerulein on gastric motility in urethane-anesthetized rats were studied. Caerulein administered into the lateral cerebral ventricle (i.c.v.) and jugular vein (i.v.) caused predominantly an inhibitory effect on gastric motility but ...

Synaptic Plasticity in Cortical Inhibitory Neurons: What Mechanisms May Help to Balance Synaptic Weight Changes?

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2020
Inhibitory neurons play a fundamental role in the normal operation of neuronal networks. Diverse types of inhibitory neurons serve vital functions in cortical networks, such as balancing excitation and taming excessive activity, organizing neuronal ...

The spino-bulbar-cerebellar pathway: organization and neurochemical properties of spinal cells that project to the lateral reticular nucleus in the rat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In addition to classical spinocerebellar pathways, the cerebellum receives information from the spinal cord indirectly via spino-bulbar-cerebellar systems. One of the structures in this pathway is the lateral reticular nucleus (LRt).

Single-cell RNA-sequencing identifies various proportions of excitatory and inhibitory neurons in cultured human fetal brain cortical tissues

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
IntroductionCortical neural progenitor cells possess the capacity to differentiate into both excitatory and inhibitory neurons. However, the precise proportions in which these progenitor cells differentiate remain unclear.MethodsHuman fetal prefrontal ...

A quantitative study of neurochemically-defined populations of inhibitory interneurons in the superficial dorsal horn of the mouse spinal cord [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Around a quarter of neurons in laminae I-II of the dorsal horn are inhibitory interneurons. These play an important role in modulating somatosensory information, including that perceived as pain or itch.
