Spontaneous Activity in Crustacean Neurons [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of General Physiology, 1962
Single units which discharged with regular spontaneous rhythms without intentional stimulation were observed in the ventral nerve cord by intracellular recording close to the sixth abdominal ganglion. These units were divided into two groups: group A units in which interspike intervals varied less than 10 msec.; group B units in which interspike ...

Rhythmic Spontaneous Activity in the Piriform Cortex [PDF]

open access: yesCerebral Cortex, 2007
Slow spontaneous rhythmic activity is generated and propagates in neocortical slices when bathed in an artificial cerebrospinal fluid with ionic concentrations similar to the ones in vivo. This activity is extraordinarily similar to the activation of the cortex in physiological conditions (e.g., slow-wave sleep), thus representing a unique in vitro ...

Cellular imaging of visual cortex reveals the spatial and functional organization of spontaneous activity

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2010
The cerebral cortex is never silent; even in primary sensory areas there is ongoing neural activity in the absence of sensory input. Correlations in spontaneous activity can provide clues about network structure, but it has been difficult to record from ...

cAMP-Dependent Co-stabilization of Axonal Arbors from Adjacent Developing Neurons

open access: yesCell Reports, 2020
Summary: Axonal arbors in many neuronal networks are exuberant early during development and become refined by activity-dependent competitive mechanisms. Theoretical work proposed non-competitive interactions between co-active axons to co-stabilize their ...

Multiple independent oscillatory networks in the degenerating retina

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015
During neuronal degenerative diseases, microcircuits undergo severe structural alterations, leading to remodeling of synaptic connectivity. This can be particularly well observed in the retina, where photoreceptor degeneration triggers rewiring of ...

Using Light-Sheet Microscopy to Study Spontaneous Activity in the Developing Lateral-Line System

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Hair cells are the sensory receptors in the auditory and vestibular systems of all vertebrates, and in the lateral-line system of aquatic vertebrates.

Fast functional imaging of multiple brain regions in intact zebrafish larvae using Selective Plane Illumination Microscopy

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2013
The optical transparency and the small dimensions of zebrafish at the larval stage make it a vertebrate model of choice for brain-wide in-vivo functional imaging.

Alpha2-Containing Glycine Receptors Promote Neonatal Spontaneous Activity of Striatal Medium Spiny Neurons and Support Maturation of Glutamatergic Inputs

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2018
Glycine receptors (GlyRs) containing the α2 subunit are highly expressed in the developing brain, where they regulate neuronal migration and maturation, promote spontaneous network activity and subsequent development of synaptic connections. Mutations in

A functional network of highly pure enteric neurons in a dish

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
The enteric nervous system (ENS) is the intrinsic nervous system that innervates the entire digestive tract and regulates major digestive functions. Recent evidence has shown that functions of the ENS critically rely on enteric neuronal connectivity ...

Associative memory model with long-tail-distributed Hebbian synaptic connections

open access: yesFrontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2013
The postsynaptic potentials of pyramidal neurons have a non-Gaussian amplitude distribution with a heavy tail in both hippocampus and neocortex. Such distributions of synaptic weights were recently shown to generate spontaneous internal noise optimal ...
