Motor Neuron Susceptibility in ALS/FTD

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by the death of both upper and lower motor neurons (MNs) in the brain, brainstem and spinal cord.

Real-time visualization of oxidative stress-mediated neurodegeneration of individual spinal motor neurons in vivo

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2018
Generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) has been shown to be important for many physiological processes, ranging from cell differentiation to apoptosis. With the development of the genetically encoded photosensitiser KillerRed (KR) it is now possible

Glial Cells in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

open access: yesNeurology Research International, 2011
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an adult motor neuron disease characterized by premature death of upper and lower motor neurons. Two percent of ALS cases are caused by the dominant mutations in the gene for superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) through a ...

Spikes can transmit neurons' subthreshold membrane potentials [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Neurons primarily communicate through the emission of action potentials, or spikes. To generate a spike, a neuron's membrane potential must cross a defined threshold. Does this spiking mechanism inherently prevent neurons from transmitting their subthreshold membrane potential fluctuations to other neurons? We prove that, in theory, it does not.

Study of a New Neuron [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 1994
We study a modular neuron alternative to the McCulloch-Pitts neuron that arises naturally in analog devices in which the neuron inputs are represented as coherent oscillatory wave signals. Although the modular neuron can compute $XOR$ at the one neuron level, it is still characterized by the same Vapnik-Chervonenkis dimension as the standard neuron. We

Hereditary Ataxias: From Bench to Clinic, Where Do We Stand?

open access: yesCells
Cerebellar ataxias are a wide heterogeneous group of movement disorders. Within this broad umbrella of diseases, there are both genetics and sporadic forms.
