Transducer Materials Mediated Deep Brain Stimulation in Neurological Disorders

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review discusses advanced transducer materials for improving deep brain stimulation (DBS) in neurological disorders. These materials respond to light, ultrasound, or magnetic fields, enabling precise, less invasive neuromodulation. Their stimulus‐responsive properties enhance neural control and adaptive therapy, paving the way for next‐generation ...

Rapid evolution of chemosensory receptor genes in a pair of sibling species of orchid bees (Apidae: Euglossini). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BackgroundInsects rely more on chemical signals (semiochemicals) than on any other sensory modality to find, identify, and choose mates. In most insects, pheromone production is typically regulated through biosynthetic pathways, whereas pheromone sensory

Holocranohistochemistry enables the visualization of α-synuclein expression in the murine olfactory system and discovery of its systemic anti-microbial effects

open access: yesJournal of neural transmission, 2017
Braak and Del Tredici have proposed that typical Parkinson disease (PD) has its origins in the olfactory bulb and gastrointestinal tract. However, the role of the olfactory system has insufficiently been explored in the pathogeneses of PD and Alzheimer ...

Hypothalamus-Olfactory System Crosstalk: Orexin as a Connecting Track in Mice.

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2012
It is well known that olfaction influences food intake, and almost vice versa, the nutritional status of individuals modulates olfactory sensitivity. However, the neuronal correlate of this relationship and the connections between the olfactory bulb and ...

Engineering Topographical Cues to Enhance Neural Regeneration in Spinal Cord Injury: Overcoming Challenges and Advancing Therapies

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Spinal cord injury (SCI) poses significant challenges for regeneration due to a series of secondary injury mechanisms. How to use biomaterial approach to target the failed regeneration after SCI remains a critical challenge. This review systematically evaluates current strategies to optimize biomaterial topographies for neurite outgrowth, axonal ...

Relational representation in the olfactory system [PDF]

open access: greenProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007
The perceptual quality of odors usually is robust to variability in concentration. However, maps of neural activation across the olfactory bulb glomerular layer are not stable in this respect; rather, glomerular odor representations both broaden and intensify as odorant concentrations are increased.

Data-driven modeling of the olfactory neural codes and their dynamics in the insect antennal lobe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Recordings from neurons in the insects' olfactory primary processing center, the antennal lobe (AL), reveal that the AL is able to process the input from chemical receptors into distinct neural activity patterns, called olfactory neural codes.

Olfactory System

open access: yes, 2001
There are two different olfactory systems in man: one for self-preservation (classical olfactory system) and one for the propagation of the species (vomeronasal system). Both systems have a considerable impact on subcortical centers and particularly on emotional reactions, but only stimulation of the classical olfactory system is consciously perceived.

Development of a noninvasive olfactory stimulation fMRI system in marmosets

open access: yesScientific Reports
Olfactory dysfunction is associated with aging and the earliest stages of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases; it is thought to be an early biomarker of cognitive decline. In marmosets, a small non-human primate model
