Background The brainstem has the critical role of regulating cardiac and respiratory function and it also provides motor and sensory function to the face via the cranial nerves. Despite the observation of a brainstem lesion in a radiological examination,

The dopaminergic midbrain participates in human episodic memory formation: Evidence from genetic imaging [PDF]
Recent data from animal studies raise the possibility that dopaminergic neuromodulation promotes the encoding of novel stimuli. We investigated a possible role for the dopaminergic midbrain in human episodic memory by measuring how polymorphisms in ...

Generation and characterization of a mouse line for monitoring translation in dopaminergic neurons [PDF]
We developed a mouse line targeting midbrain dopamine neurons for Translating Ribosome Affinity Purification(TRAP). Here, we briefly report on the basic characterization of this mouse line including confirmation of expression of the transgene in midbrain

An approach for identifying brainstem dopaminergic pathways using resting state functional MRI. [PDF]
Here, we present an approach for identifying brainstem dopaminergic pathways using resting state functional MRI. In a group of healthy individuals, we searched for significant functional connectivity between dopamine-rich midbrain areas (substantia nigra;

Bi-allelic JAM2 Variants Lead to Early-Onset Recessive Primary Familial Brain Calcification. [PDF]
Primary familial brain calcification (PFBC) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a combination of neurological, psychiatric, and cognitive decline associated with calcium deposition on brain imaging. To date, mutations in five genes have

Perineuronal Nets and GABAergic cells in the Inferior Colliculus of Guinea Pigs
Perineuronal nets (PNs) are aggregates of extracellular matrix that have been associated with neuronal plasticity, critical periods, fast-spiking cells and protection from oxidative stress.
