AbstractMost dorsal thalamic nuclei send axons to specific areas of the neocortex and to specific sectors of the thalamic reticular nucleus; the neocortex then sends reciprocal connections back to the same thalamic nucleus, directly as well indirectly through a relay in the thalamic reticular nucleus.

Global and Regional Vigilance: Are There Two Types of Local Sleep?
The term local sleep as it is used in the literature is confusing and probably consists of two types of brain states. The first one originates from increased activity in certain cortical areas during waking, resulting in increased activity in the slow‐waves range in that same area during subsequent NREM sleep. The second one consists of local states in

The thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN) serves as an important node between the thalamus and neocortex, regulating thalamocortical rhythms and sensory processing in a state dependent manner.

To understand the pathomechanism and pathophysiology of autosomal dominant sleep-related hypermotor epilepsy (ADSHE), we studied functional abnormalities of glutamatergic transmission in thalamocortical pathway from reticular thalamic nucleus (RTN ...

THE DIFFERENTIAL EXPRESSION PATTERNS OF MESSENGER RNAs ENCODING NOGO-A AND NOGO-RECEPTOR IN THE RAT CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM [PDF]
Nogo-A and Nogo-receptor have been considered to play pivotal roles in controlling axonal regeneration and neuronal plasticity. We investigated the total distribution of Nogo-A and Nogo-receptor mRNAs in the adult rat central nervous system using in situ

Selectively driving cholinergic fibers optically in the thalamic reticular nucleus promotes sleep
Cholinergic projections from the basal forebrain and brainstem are thought to play important roles in rapid eye movement (REM) sleep and arousal. Using transgenic mice in which channelrhdopsin-2 is selectively expressed in cholinergic neurons, we show ...

Alterations in prefrontal-limbic functional activation and connectivity in chronic stress-induced visceral hyperalgesia. [PDF]
Repeated water avoidance stress (WAS) induces sustained visceral hyperalgesia (VH) in rats measured as enhanced visceromotor response to colorectal distension (CRD).

This study provides the first experimental evidence of a novel transnasal ventral brainstem epidural electrical stimulation approach in anesthetized sheep and demonstrates that this procedure can induce behavioral arousal and cortical electrophysiological changes toward a wake‐like state, holding promise for the treatment of chronic disorders of ...

Development of the corticothalamic projections
In this review we discuss recent advances in the understanding of corticothalamic axon guidance; patterning of the early telencephalon, the sequence and choreography of the development of projections from subplate, layers 5 and 6.

The Dynamic Role of Breathing and Cellular Membrane Potentials in the Experience of Consciousness [PDF]
Understanding the mechanics of consciousness remains one of the most important challenges in modern cognitive science. One key step toward understanding consciousness is to associate unconscious physiological processes with subjective experiences of ...
