Brain evolution in bats (Mammalia, Chiroptera): auditory, Olfactory and Sensorimotor systems [PDF]

, 2002
Data for brain structure volumes was analysed using multiple regression to test for correlated volumetric evolution in bats (Mammalia, Chiroptera). Significant partial correlations were found between major brain subdivisions, and between structures ...

Brain-wide mapping reveals temporal and sexually dimorphic opioid actions

Communications Biology
The field of neuroscience has been transformed by recent advances in spatial mapping of neuronal activity across whole cleared brains. Rapid adoption of these techniques requires computational workflows that can facilitate experiments comparing multiple ...

Transplantation of olfactory ensheathing cells into spinal cord lesions restores breathing and climbing [PDF]

, 2003
One of the most devastating effects of damage to the upper spinal cord is the loss of the ability to breathe; patients suffering these injuries can be kept alive only with assisted ventilation. No known method for repairing these injuries exists.

Recruitment of specific dopamine neuron sub-circuits by opioids

Addiction Neuroscience
Opioids have strong addictive and rewarding effects, largely attributed to their interaction with the dopamine (DA) system. Within the ventral tegmental area (VTA), opioids increase DA neural activity by disinhibiting—or decreasing the tonic inhibition ...

Ultrastructural Characterization of Developmental Stages and Head Sensilla in Portici okadai, Vector of Thelazia callipaeda

Insects
Phortica okadai, a vector of Thelazia callipaeda, is associated with an increasing incidence of thelaziasis. The complex habitat and chemosensory system of P. okadai are critical for its proliferation and expansion.

Involvement of the Olfactory Tubercle in Cocaine Reward: Intracranial Self-Administration Studies

, 2003
Cocaine has multiple actions and multiple sites of action in the brain. Evidence from pharmacological studies indicates that it is the ability of cocaine to block dopamine uptake and elevate extracellular dopamine concentrations, and thus increase ...

Electrophysiological responses of rat olfactory tubercle neurons to biologically relevant odours

, 2011
International audienceBiologically relevant odours were used to stimulate olfactory tubercle neurons in anaesthetized male rats. Among 120 recordedneurons, 118 showed spontaneous activity (mean firing rate, 15.0 ± 1.4 spikes ⁄ s).
