Neuron-Specific HuR-Deficient Mice Spontaneously Develop Motor Neuron Disease [PDF]
Human Ag R (HuR) is an RNA binding protein in the ELAVL protein family. To study the neuron-specific function of HuR, we generated inducible, neuron-specific HuR-deficient mice of both sexes.

Transcriptional Reprogramming of Distinct Peripheral Sensory Neuron Subtypes after Axonal Injury
Primary somatosensory neurons are specialized to transmit specific types of sensory information through differences in cell size, myelination, and the expression of distinct receptors and ion channels, which together define their transcriptional and ...

Geometry-based finite-element modeling of the electrical contact between a cultured neuron and a microelectrode [PDF]
The electrical contact between a substrate embedded microelectrode and a cultured neuron depends on the geometry of the neuron-electrode interface. Interpretation and improvement of these contacts requires proper modeling of all coupling mechanisms.

Spinocerebellar ataxia 3 (SCA3, also known as Machado–Joseph disease) is a neurodegenerative disease caused by inheritance of a CAG repeat expansion within the ATXN3 gene, resulting in polyglutamine (polyQ) repeat expansion within the ataxin-3 protein ...

Leader neurons in leaky integrate and fire neural network simulations
Several experimental studies show the existence of leader neurons in population bursts of 2D living neural networks. A leader neuron is, basically, a neuron which fires at the beginning of a burst (respectively network spike) more often that we expect by

The Effect of a Refractory Period on the Power Spectrum of Neuronal Discharge [PDF]
The interspike intervals in steady-state neuron firing are assumed to be independently and identically distributed random variables. In the simplest model discussed, each interval is assumed to be the sum of a random neuron refractory period and a ...

Neurons other than motor neurons in motor neuron disease.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is typically defined by a loss of motor neurons in the central nervous system. Accordingly, morphological analysis for decades considered motor neurons (in the cortex, brainstem and spinal cord) as the neuronal population selectively involved in ALS.
