A Connectomic Analysis of the Human Basal Ganglia Network

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2017
The current model of basal ganglia circuits has been introduced almost two decades ago and has settled the basis for our understanding of basal ganglia physiology and movement disorders.

Functional organization of autonomic neural pathways [PDF]

open access: yesOrganogenesis, 2013
There is now abundant functional and anatomical evidence that autonomic motor pathways represent a highly organized output of the central nervous system. Simplistic notions of antagonistic all-or-none activation of sympathetic or parasympathetic pathways are clearly wrong. Sympathetic or parasympathetic pathways to specific target tissues generally can

Parallel Development of Chromatin Patterns, Neuron Morphology, and Connections: Potential for Disruption in Autism

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2018
The phenotype of neurons and their connections depend on complex genetic and epigenetic processes that regulate the expression of genes in the nucleus during development and throughout life.

Brain-based correlates of depression and traumatic brain injury: a systematic review of structural and functional magnetic resonance imaging studies

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroimaging
IntroductionDepression is prevalent after traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, there is a lack of understanding of the brain-based correlates of depression post-TBI.

The role of axon guidance molecules in the pathogenesis of epilepsy

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research
Current treatments for epilepsy can only manage the symptoms of the condition but cannot alter the initial onset or halt the progression of the disease. Consequently, it is crucial to identify drugs that can target novel cellular and molecular mechanisms

Neural Conduction Along Postretinal Visual Pathways in Glaucoma

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2021
Purpose: This study was conducted in order to evaluate retinal ganglion cell (RCG) function and the neural conduction along the postretinal large and small axons and its correlation with retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFL-T) in open-angle glaucoma

Building and manipulating neural pathways with microfluidics [PDF]

open access: yesLab on a Chip, 2010
Communication between different brain regions, and between local circuits in the same brain region, is an important area of study for basic and translational neuroscience research. Selective and chronic manipulation of one of the components in a given neural pathway is frequently required for development and plasticity studies.

Neural and hormonal mechanisms of appetite regulation during eating

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition
Numerous animal and clinical studies have demonstrated that the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus, a central regulator of appetite, plays a significant role in modulating feeding behavior.

Making tau amyloid models in vitro: a crucial and underestimated challenge

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review highlights the challenges of producing in vitro amyloid assemblies of the tau protein. We review how accurately the existing protocols mimic tau deposits found in the brain of patients affected with tauopathies. We discuss the important properties that should be considered when forming amyloids and the benchmarks that should be used to ...

Vestibular Pharmacology and Neural Pathway

open access: yesPractica Oto-Rhino-Laryngologica, 1983
This paper deals with recent advances in anatomical, biochemical, pharmacological and physiological studies on the vestibular system. Fiber connections and characteristics of the vestibular neurons and primary vestibular neurons were discussed in relation to other structures such as the cerebellum, oculomotor nuclei, reticular formation, and spinal ...
