Neural inhibition for continual learning and memory.
Highlights • In humans, the concentration of cortical GABA decreases during learning.• Inhibitory plasticity provides homeostatic control to restore network stability.• Memories are held dormant unless latent inhibitory connections are unmasked ...

Optimizing thermal block length during infrared neural inhibition to minimize temperature thresholds. [PDF]
Objective. Infrared neural inhibition (INI) is a method of blocking the generation or propagation of neural action potentials through laser heating with wavelengths strongly absorbed by water.

Enriched Environment Prevents Surgery-Induced Persistent Neural Inhibition and Cognitive Dysfunction. [PDF]
Perioperative neurocognitive disorders (PND) encompass short-term delirium and long-term cognitive dysfunction. Aging increases the susceptibility to PND, yet the neural mechanism is not known.

Isotonic ion replacement can lower the threshold for selective infrared neural inhibition. [PDF]
. Significance: Infrared (IR) inhibition can selectively block peripheral sensory nerve fibers, a potential treatment for autonomic-dysfunction-related diseases (e.g., neuropathic pain and interstitial cystitis).

Biophysical models applied to dementia patients reveal links between geographical origin, gender, disease duration, and loss of neural inhibition. [PDF]
Background The hypothesis of decreased neural inhibition in dementia has been sparsely studied in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data across patients with different dementia subtypes, and the role of social and demographic heterogeneities ...

Neural correlates of intentional and stimulus-driven inhibition: A comparison [PDF]
People can inhibit an action because of an instruction by an external stimulus, or because of their own internal decision. The similarities and differences between these two forms of inhibition are not well understood. Therefore, in the present study the

Neural inhibition enables selection during language processing [PDF]
Whether grocery shopping or choosing words to express a thought, selecting between options can be challenging, especially for people with anxiety. We investigate the neural mechanisms supporting selection during language processing and its breakdown in anxiety.

Anti-neural-inhibition: a conserved mechanism for neural induction. [PDF]
While the previous discussion highlights the striking degree of evolutionary conservation in the mechanism for partitioning the ectoderm into neural versus nonneural components, it is not as clear that other aspects of D/V patterning have been conserved.

Neural noise and cortical inhibition in schizophrenia [PDF]
Background: Neural information processing is subject to noise and this leads to variability in neural firing and behavior. Schizophrenia has been associated with both more variable motor control and impaired cortical inhibition, which is crucial for ...
