Neural pathways for visual speech perception [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2014 This paper examines the questions, what levels of speech can be perceived visually, and how is visual speech represented by the brain? Review of the literature leads to the conclusions that every level of psycholinguistic speech structure (i.e., phonetic

Dopamine system: Manager of neural pathways [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2013 There are a growing number of roles that midbrain dopamine (DA) neurons assume, such as, reward, aversion, alerting and vigor. Here I propose a theory that may be able to explain why the suggested functions of DA came about.

The effect of conscientiousness on procrastination: The interaction between the self-control and motivation neural pathways. [PDF]
Hum Brain Mapp, 2021 Procrastination is a prevalent and universal problematic behavior, largely impairing individual's health, wealth and well‐being. Substantial studies have confirmed that conscientiousness, one of the big five personality, showed markedly inverse relation ...

Anatomy and Neural Pathways Modulating Distinct Locomotor Behaviors in Drosophila Larva. [PDF]
Biology (Basel), 2021 Simple Summary Simple movements require the involvement of many neurons before a group of muscles receives the signal to contract and relax. The sensory system adds another layer of complexity to movement generation, as the mechanism of sensory ...

Autonomous Discovery of Unknown Reaction Pathways from Data by Chemical Reaction Neural Network [PDF]
The Journal of Physical Chemistry A, 2021, 2020 Chemical reactions occur in energy, environmental, biological, and many other natural systems, and the inference of the reaction networks is essential to understand and design the chemical processes in engineering and life sciences. Yet, revealing the reaction pathways for complex systems and processes is still challenging due to the lack of knowledge ...

Alteration of Neural Pathways and Its Implications in Alzheimer’s Disease [PDF]
Biomedicines, 2022 Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease accompanied by cognitive and behavioral symptoms. These AD-related manifestations result from the alteration of neural circuitry by aggregated forms of amyloid-β (Aβ) and hyperphosphorylated tau ...

Neural pathways from hypothalamic orexin neurons to the ventrolateral preoptic area mediate sleep impairments induced by conditioned fear [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023 IntroductionFear and sleep impairments common co-exist, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Hypothalamic orexinergic neurons are involved in the regulation of sleep-wake and fear expression.

Neural Pathways of Craniofacial Muscle Pain: Implications for Novel Treatments. [PDF]
J Dent Res, 2020 Craniofacial muscle pain is highly prevalent in temporomandibular disorders but is difficult to treat. Enhanced understanding of neurobiology unique to craniofacial muscle pain should lead to the development of novel mechanism-based treatments.
