Ghrelin Decreases Firing Activity of Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone (GnRH) Neurons in an Estrous Cycle and Endocannabinoid Signaling Dependent Manner. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The orexigenic peptide, ghrelin is known to influence function of GnRH neurons, however, the direct effects of the hormone upon these neurons have not been explored, yet.

An RNA-Sequencing Transcriptome and Splicing Database of Glia, Neurons, and Vascular Cells of the Cerebral Cortex

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2014
The major cell classes of the brain differ in their developmental processes, metabolism, signaling, and function. To better understand the functions and interactions of the cell types that comprise these classes, we acutely purified representative ...

Production of glycoprotein-deleted rabies viruses for monosynaptic tracing and high-level gene expression in neurons

open access: yesNature Protocols, 2010
Recombinant rabies viruses rendered replication-deficient by the deletion of their envelope glycoprotein gene are useful tools for neuroscientists, permitting (1) extraordinarily high transgene expression levels within neurons, (2) retrograde infection ...

Myelination of parvalbumin interneurons shapes the function of cortical sensory inhibitory circuits

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Myelination optimizes conduction speed of excitatory neurons. However, whether myelination of interneurons (INs) refines cortical networks is unclear.

The Creative Neurons [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
Creativity generates novel solutions to tasks by processing information. Imagination and mental representations are part of the creative process; we can mull over ideas of our own making, and construct algorithms or scenarios from them. Social scenario-building can be viewed as a human cognitive “super-power” that involves abstraction, meta ...

A Transgenic Rat for Investigating the Anatomy and Function of Corticotrophin Releasing Factor Circuits. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Corticotrophin-releasing factor (CRF) is a 41 amino acid neuropeptide that coordinates adaptive responses to stress. CRF projections from neurons in the central nucleus of the amygdala (CeA) to the brainstem are of particular interest for their role in ...

Synaptic Modifications in Cultured Hippocampal Neurons: Dependence on Spike Timing, Synaptic Strength, and Postsynaptic Cell Type

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 1998
In cultures of dissociated rat hippocampal neurons, persistent potentiation and depression of glutamatergic synapses were induced by correlated spiking of presynaptic and postsynaptic neurons.

Multiorder neurons for evolutionary higher-order clustering and growth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This letter proposes to use multiorder neurons for clustering irregularly shaped data arrangements. Multiorder neurons are an evolutionary extension of the use of higher-order neurons in clustering.

Synaptophysin and synaptoporin expression in the developing rat olfactory system [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The expressions of two closely related synaptic vesicle antigens synaptophysin and synaptoporin were examined in the olfactory system of the adult rat and during pre- and postnatal development.

Learning cellular morphology with neural networks

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Volume electron microscopy data of brain tissue can tell us much about neural circuits, but increasingly large data sets demand automation of analysis. Here, the authors introduce cellular morphology neural networks and successfully automate a range of ...
