Visual and Electrosensory Circuits of the Diencephalon in Mormyrids [PDF]
, 1990 Mormyrids are one of two groups of teleost fishes known to have evolved electroreception, and the concomitant neuroanatomical changes have confounded the interpretation of many of their brain areas in a comparative context, e.g., the diencephalon, where ...

The rostroventral part of the thalamic reticular nucleus modulates fear extinction
Nature Communications, 2019 The precise role of the thalamic reticular nucleus in fear is not understood. Here, the authors report that the rostroventral part of the reticular nucleus is involved in the extinction of tone conditioned fear memory through its inhibitory projections ...

Distribution and characterisation of Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor expressing cells in the mouse brain. [PDF]
, 2015 © 2015 The Authors.Objective: Although Glucagon-like peptide 1 is a key regulator of energy metabolism and food intake, the precise location of GLP-1 receptors and the physiological relevance of certain populations is debatable.

The Contribution of Thalamocortical Core and Matrix Pathways to Sleep Spindles. [PDF]
, 2016 Sleep spindles arise from the interaction of thalamic and cortical neurons. Neurons in the thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN) inhibit thalamocortical neurons, which in turn excite the TRN and cortical neurons.

Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2016 Sleep and wakefulness are characterized by distinct states of thalamocortical network oscillations. The complex interplay of ionic conductances within the thalamo-reticular-cortical network give rise to these multiple modes of activity and a rapid ...

Connections of the corpus cerebelli in the green sunfish and the common goldfish [PDF]
, 1988 Examination of the connections of the corpus cerebelli in one perciform (Lepomis cyanellus) and one cypriniform teleost (Carassius auratus) reveal that ipsilateral afferent connections in both species arise from an anterior group of nuclei in the ...

What is the Thalamus in Zebrafish?
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2012 Current research on the thalamus and related structures in the zebrafish diencephalon identifies an increasing number of both neurological structures and ontogenetic processes as evolutionary conserved between teleosts and mammals.

On the genesis of spike-wave oscillations in a mean-field model of human thalamic and corticothalamic dynamics [PDF]
, 2006 In this Letter, the genesis of spike-wave activity—a hallmark of many generalized epileptic seizures—is investigated in a reduced mean-field model of human neural activity.

The role of T-type calcium channel genes in absence seizures
Frontiers in Neurology, 2014 The thalamic relay neurons, reticular thalamic nucleus, and neocortical pyramidal cells form a circuit that sustains oscillatory burst firing, and is regarded as the underlying mechanism of absence seizures.
