Short-term availability of adult-born neurons for memory encoding

Nature Communications, 2019
Olfactory bulb neurogenesis raises the question of how persistent olfactory memories are retained while remaining flexible to encode new memories. Here, the authors show that new neurons can only support a single odor memory within their critical period ...

The Segregated Expression of Voltage-Gated Potassium and Sodium Channels in Neuronal Membranes: Functional Implications and Regulatory Mechanisms

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2017
Neurons are highly polarized cells with apparent functional and morphological differences between dendrites and axon. A critical determinant for the molecular and functional identity of axonal and dendritic segments is the restricted expression of ...

No evidence for a difference in lateralization and distinctiveness level of transcranial magnetic stimulation-derived cortical motor representations over the adult lifespan

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022
This study aimed to investigate the presence and patterns of age-related differences in TMS-based measures of lateralization and distinctiveness of the cortical motor representations of two different hand muscles.

A short dasatinib and quercetin treatment is sufficient to reinstate potent adult neuroregenesis in the aged killifish

npj Regenerative Medicine, 2023
The young African turquoise killifish has a high regenerative capacity, but loses it with advancing age, adopting several aspects of the limited form of mammalian regeneration.

Altered excitability of small cutaneous nerve fibers during cooling assessed with the perception threshold tracking technique

BMC Neuroscience, 2019
Background There is a need for new approaches to increase the knowledge of the membrane excitability of small nerve fibers both in healthy subjects, as well as during pathological conditions.

Conrad’s Neuroplasticity

Modernism/modernity, 2016
“Our brain is plastic and we do not know it” says French philosopher Catherine Malabou. This article argues that Joseph Conrad knew it. In the process it suggests that contemporary discoveries in the neurosciences about the “neuroplasticity” of the human brain can be supplemented by tracing the aesthetic and conceptual implications of the plastic ...

Microglia Depletion-Induced Remodeling of Extracellular Matrix and Excitatory Synapses in the Hippocampus of Adult Mice

Cells, 2021
The extracellular matrix (ECM) plays a key role in synaptogenesis and the regulation of synaptic functions in the central nervous system. Recent studies revealed that in addition to dopaminergic and serotoninergic neuromodulatory systems, microglia also ...

Electroconvulsive therapy mediates neuroplasticity of white matter microstructure in major depression. [PDF]

, 2014
Whether plasticity of white matter (WM) microstructure relates to therapeutic response in major depressive disorder (MDD) remains uncertain. We examined diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) correlates of WM structural connectivity in patients receiving ...
