Dorsal Raphe Nucleus Down-Regulates Medial Prefrontal Cortex during Experience of Flow

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2016
Previous neuroimaging studies have suggested that the experience of flow aligns with a relative increase in activation of the dorsal raphe nucleus, and relative activation decreases of the medial prefrontal cortex and of the amygdala.

Stereotactic biopsy for adult brainstem lesions: A surgical approach and its diagnostic value according to the 2016 World Health Organization Classification

open access: yesCancer Medicine, 2021
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,

Bi-allelic JAM2 Variants Lead to Early-Onset Recessive Primary Familial Brain Calcification. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
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

Gene therapy for aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase deficiency by MR-guided direct delivery of AAV2-AADC to midbrain dopaminergic neurons

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) deficiency is a rare genetic disorder characterized by deficient synthesis of dopamine and serotonin. It presents in early infancy, and causes severe developmental disability and lifelong motor, behavioral, and ...

Dysregulation of Midbrain Dopamine System and the Pathophysiology of Schizophrenia

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2020
Dysregulation of the dopamine system is central to many models of the pathophysiology of psychosis in schizophrenia. However, emerging evidence suggests that this dysregulation is driven by the disruption of upstream circuits that provide afferent ...

Generation of homogeneous midbrain organoids with in vivo‐like cellular composition facilitates neurotoxin‐based Parkinson's disease modeling

open access: yesStem Cells, 2020
Recent studies have demonstrated the generation of midbrain‐like organoids (MOs) from human pluripotent stem cells. However, the low efficiency of MO generation and the relatively immature and heterogeneous structures of the MOs hinder the translation of
