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 ...

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.

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.

Skin-Brain Axis: neural pathways in acupuncture treatment [PDF]
Chinese MedicineThe “Skin-Brain Axis” hypothesis posits that the skin contains a dense network of nerve endings, neurotransmitters, and neuropeptide receptors capable of detecting tissue damage with high precision and relaying signals to the brain through sensory ...

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

Changes of Neural Pathways after Vojta Approach in a Child with Developmental Delay [PDF]
Children, 2021 The development of motor function is related to the development of neural pathways in the white matter. Children with developmental delay (DD) and hypotonia have reduced motor function, and their neural pathways are observed differently from those of ...

Developmental Hypothyroidism Influences the Development of the Entorhinal-Dentate Gyrus Pathway of Rat Offspring [PDF]
Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2022 Background Developmental hypothyroidism impairs learning and memory in offspring, which depend on extensive neuronal circuits in the entorhinal cortex, together with the hippocampus and neocortex. The entorhinal-dentate gyrus pathway is the main entrance
