A model of intracellular signalling can implement Radial Basis Function learning in cerebellar Purkinje cells [PDF]
It has been suggested that information in the brain is encoded in temporal spike patterns which are decoded by `Radial Basis Function' (RBF) neurons using time delays and coincidence detection.

1. We investigated two skink species differing primarily in social ecology. 2. Using immunohistochemistry, we investigated the distribution of four neurotransmitters known to play a role in vertebrate social behavior. 3. We generally found these transmitters in more brain regions in the family‐living species.

Mesenchymal Stem Cell‐Based Therapy for Cerebellar Ataxia: From Bench to Bedside
Allogeneic hMSCs transplanted across LPS, Ara‐C, and SCA2 cerebellar ataxia (CA) models suppress neuroinflammation and restore the neurotrophin axis, collectively preserving Purkinje cell integrity. These preclinical findings are being translated clinically, from a first‐in‐human case report to an ongoing Phase II/III randomized trial (NCT02540655 ...

The investigation of the dynamics of Purkinje cell (PC) activity is crucial to unravel the role of the cerebellum in motor control, learning and cognitive processes. Within the cerebellar cortex (CC), these neurons receive all the incoming sensory and motor information, transform it and generate the entire cerebellar output.

Epilepsy: Epidemiology, Molecular Pathogenesis, and Clinical Management
Epilepsy is a heterogeneous and chronically evolving brain network disorder. This review integrates epidemiological burden, psychiatric comorbidities, and cyclic seizure patterns with multiscale pathogenic mechanisms, including ion‐channel dysfunction, synaptic transmission defects, neuroinflammation, metabolic and mitochondrial dysfunction, and ...

Hyaluronan (HA) Receptors: Discovery, Function & Pathology
ABSTRACT Hyaluronan (HA) is typically a long polymer of the repeating disaccharide, glucuronic acid‐β‐(1‐3)‐N‐acetylglucosamine polymerized by β(1‐4) bonds, with no obvious active site for biological activity. However, this dynamic polymer is vital for life in all metazoans and has a diverse array of functional characteristics due to the proteins that ...

Experience-dependent Selection of Purkinje Cell Targets [PDF]
Senior Honors Thesis, Department of Integrative Biology, University of Wisconsin-MadisonNeuroplasticity refers to the formation of new neuronal connections and the reorganization of existing ones based on experiences and environmental demands.

Abstract Background and Purpose Between‐cell differences in ventricular cardiomyocyte action potential duration (APD) and responses to ion channel block may contribute to pro‐arrhythmic dispersion of myocardial repolarisation. This study quantifies between‐cell physiological and pharmacological variability in the rabbit left ventricle (LV) and uses ...
