Psychometrics of Disembodiment and Its Differential Modulation by Visuomotor and Visuotactile Mismatches

iScience, 2020
Summary: Altered states of embodiment are fundamental to the scientific understanding of bodily self consciousness. The feeling of disembodiment during everyday activities is common to clinical conditions; however, the direct study of disembodiment in ...

Intense isolectin-B4 binding in rat dorsal root ganglion neurons distinguishes c-fiber nociceptors with broad action potentials and high nav1.9 expression [PDF]

, 2006
Binding to isolectin-B4 (IB4) and expression of tyrosine kinase A (trkA) (the high-affinity NGF receptor) have been used to define two different subgroups of nociceptive small dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons. We previously showed that only nociceptors

A connexin30 mutation rescues hearing and reveals roles for gap junctions in cochlear amplification and micromechanics

Nature Communications, 2017
A point mutation in the gap-junction protein connexin 30 stops early onset age-related hearing loss. Here, the authors show that gap junctions contribute to cochlear micromechanics and that cochlear amplification is likely controlled by extracellular ...

The indirect corticopontine pathway relays perioral sensory signals to the cerebellum via the mesodiencephalic junction

iScience, 2023
Summary: In the cerebro–cerebellar loop, outputs from the cerebral cortex are thought to be transmitted via monosynaptic corticopontine gray (PG) pathways and subsequently relayed to the cerebellum.

Sensory Neuroscience: Taste Responses in Primary Olfactory Cortex [PDF]

Current Biology, 2013
A new electrophysiological study in rodents demonstrates that taste-odor convergence occurs in posterior piriform olfactory cortex and calls for a reformulation of classic models of the central representation of flavor.

Auditory white noise exposure results in intrinsic cortical excitability changes

iScience, 2023
Summary: Cortical excitability is commonly measured by applying magnetic stimulation in combination with measuring behavioral response. This measure has, however, some shortcomings including spatial limitation to the primary motor cortex and not ...

Resting-state functional connectivity changes in the human brain from electrically-stimulated (2 Hz), rhythmic muscle contractions to the hand: An exploratory study

NeuroImage: Reports
Sensory nerves from contracting skeletal muscles can alter autonomic functions mediated by connections in the medulla and hypothalamus. We hypothesized that low-frequency, non-voluntary, rhythmical electrical stimulation of small muscles of the hand, in ...

A Network Analysis Approach to Detect and Differentiate Usher Syndrome Types Using miRNA Expression Profiles: A Pilot Study

BioMedInformatics
Background: Usher syndrome (USH) is a rare genetic disorder that affects both hearing and vision. It presents in three clinical types—USH1, USH2, and USH3—with varying onset, severity, and disease progression.
