Visual Cortex Plasticity: A Complex Interplay of Genetic and Environmental Influences

Neural Plasticity, 2012
The central nervous system architecture is highly dynamic and continuously modified by sensory experience through processes of neuronal plasticity. Plasticity is achieved by a complex interplay of environmental influences and physiological mechanisms ...

Studying multisensory processing and its role in the representation of space through pathological and physiological crossmodal extinction

Frontiers in Psychology, 2011
The study of crossmodal extinction has brought a considerable contribution to our understanding of how the integration of stimuli perceived in multiple sensory modalities is used by the nervous system to build coherent representations of the space that ...

Notch-mediated re-specification of neuronal identity during central nervous system development [PDF]

, 2021
Neuronal identity has long been thought of as immutable, so that once a cell acquires a specific fate, it is maintained for life.(1) Studies using the overexpression of potent transcription factors to experimentally reprogram neuronal fate in the mouse ...

Heart Rate Variability in Young Adults with Bronchial Asthma with and without Previous COVID-19 Infection: A Cross-sectional Study

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research
Introduction: Heart Rate Variability (HRV) is a validated, non invasive measure of Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) function. Both bronchial asthma and post Coronavirus Disease-2019 (COVID-19) syndrome are independently associated with autonomic ...

Dynamic systems approaches and levels of analysis in the nervous system

Frontiers in Physiology, 2013
Various analyses are applied to physiological signals. While epistemological diversity is necessary to address effects at different levels, there is often a sense of competition between analyses rather than integration.

Neuroprotective actions of neurosteroids

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2011
Neurosteroids were initially defined as steroid hormones locally synthesized within the nervous tissue. Subsequently, they were described as steroid hormone derivatives that devoid hormonal action but still affect neuronal excitability through modulation

The RNA Helicase BELLE Is Involved in Circadian Rhythmicity and in Transposons Regulation in Drosophila melanogaster

Frontiers in Physiology, 2019
Circadian clocks control and synchronize biological rhythms of several behavioral and physiological phenomena in most, if not all, organisms. Rhythm generation relies on molecular auto-regulatory oscillations of interlocked transcriptional-translational ...
