Diesel Exhaust Activates & Primes Microglia: Air Pollution, Neuroinflammation, & Regulation of Dopaminergic Neurotoxicity [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Air pollution is linked to central nervous system disease, but the mechanisms responsible are poorly understood. OBJECTIVES: Here, we sought to address the brain-region-specific effects of diesel exhaust (DE) and key cellular mechanisms ...

The systemic environment: at the interface of aging and adult neurogenesis. [PDF]
Aging results in impaired neurogenesis in the two neurogenic niches of the adult mammalian brain, the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus and the subventricular zone of the lateral ventricle.

How Growth Cones Sense Extracellular Cues and Drive Neuronal Migration
Migrating neurons and growing axons utilize structurally and functionally similar growth cones to detect guidance cues. Shared receptors and signaling pathways mediate cytoskeletal reorganization to direct movement. This conserved mechanism underlies both neuronal migration and axon extension, providing insights into neuronal development and potential ...

We perceive smells as perduring complex entities within a distal array that might be conceived of as smellscapes. However, the philosophical orthodoxy of Odor Theories has been to deny that smells are perceived as having a distal location.

While recent studies suggest an important role of higher order olfactory brain areas for basic olfactory performance, the extent to which cortical and peripheral neural markers account for separate portions of the variability in olfactory perceptual ...

Manganese Neurotoxicity and Familial Disorders of Manganese Transport
ABSTRACT Manganese is the 12th most common element in the Earth's crust and is an essential industrial component. Biologically, this metal plays an important role as a constituent of numerous enzymes. While manganese is required for normal biochemical and physiological processes, manganese excess can lead to significant toxicity, particularly to the ...

Intensity Coding in Two-Dimensional Excitable Neural Networks
In the light of recent experimental findings that gap junctions are essential for low level intensity detection in the sensory periphery, the Greenberg-Hastings cellular automaton is employed to model the response of a two-dimensional sensory network to ...

In a digital risk‐taking test, participants inflated a balloon to increase earned points at the risk of popping under different display and ambient lighting conditions. ABSTRACT Lighting from architectural fixtures and screens can have impacts beyond visual perception, such as occupants' cognitive functions and emotional states. Despite the ubiquity of
