Immunolocalization of Dynamin I Protein in Projection Neurons of the Visual System of the Adult Cat
We here report on the immunolocalization of Dynamin I (Dyn I) in neurons of the visual system of the cat. The lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) complex displayed abundant Dyn I immunoreactivity in typical relay cells of the X-, Y- and W-pathway.

Stress, Depression and Neuroplasticity [PDF]
Modifications of signaling pathways and synapses owing to changing behaviors, environments, numerous neural modulation as well as brain-tissue injuries is defined as neuroplasticity in developmental neurology. The central purpose of the review is to gain a better understanding of the relation between stress, depression and neuroplasticity and explore ...

Foreword for neuroplasticity and neurorehabilitation [PDF]
For much of the twentieth century, the views concerning the plasticity of the mature mammalian central nervous system (CNS) and the possibility of improvement in functional impairments in the chronic phase following substantial damage to the CNS were fixed and rarely questioned.

Recent transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) research indicated that the ability of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) to disinhibit the contralateral primary motor cortex (M1) during motor preparation is an important predictor for bimanual ...

Hacking the Brain: Triggering Neuroplasticity for Enhancing Musical Talent: A study on Monkey and Human behavior after Exposure to Videogames and Visual/Auditory Stimuli to Increase Musical Abilities through Neuroplasticity [PDF]
In this paper, we analyze the cognitive improvements that can be achieved through hacking the brain through the use of multiple methods to enhance neuroplasticity. Exposure to gaming, for example, has proven conducive for learning real-world abilities through auditory and visual stimuli. We will discuss cortical magnification and receptive field sizes,

The human olfactory system in two proteinopathies: Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases
Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases are the most prevalent neurodegenerative disorders. Their etiologies are idiopathic, and treatments are symptomatic and orientated towards cognitive or motor deficits.

Inferring Brain Dynamics via Multimodal Joint Graph Representation EEG-fMRI [PDF]
Recent studies have shown that multi-modeling methods can provide new insights into the analysis of brain components that are not possible when each modality is acquired separately. The joint representations of different modalities is a robust model to analyze simultaneously acquired electroencephalography and functional magnetic resonance imaging (EEG-

Mechanisms in neurodegenerative disorders and role of non-pharmacological interventions in improving neurodegeneration and its clinical correlates: A review [PDF]
Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) leading to dementia results in a constellation of psychiatric disorders including depression, mood disorders, schizophrenia and others. With increasing age, mild cognitive impairment leads to increased disability-adjusted life-years and healthcare burden.

Experimental muscle pain inhibits corticomotor excitability (CE) of upper limb muscles. It is unknown if this inhibition affects overlapping muscle representations within the primary motor cortex to the same degree.
