Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2015 Cultured neurons on multi electrode arrays (MEAs) have been widely used to study various as-pects of neuronal (network) functioning. A possible drawback of this approach is the lack of structure in these networks.

eLife, 2021 Neural activity has been implicated in the motility and outgrowth of glial cell processes throughout the central nervous system. Here, we explore this phenomenon in Müller glia, which are specialized radial astroglia that are the predominant glial type ...

On the origin of spontaneous activity in the bladder [PDF]
BJU International, 2015 Objectives To characterise separately the pharmacological profiles of spontaneous contractions from the mucosa and detrusor layers of the bladder wall and to describe the relationship in mucosa between adenosine triphosphate (ATP) release and spontaneous contractions.

Clinical applications of resting state functional connectivity
Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2010 During resting conditions the brain remains functionally and metabolically active. One manifestation of this activity that has become an important research tool is spontaneous fluctuations in the blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) signal of fMRI.

Spontaneous and evoked activity patterns diverge over development
eLife, 2021 The immature brain is highly spontaneously active. Over development this activity must be integrated with emerging patterns of stimulus-evoked activity, but little is known about how this occurs.

Spontaneous physical activity down-regulates Pax7 in cancer cachexia [PDF]
, 2015 Emerging evidence suggests that the muscle microenvironment plays a prominent role in cancer cachexia. We recently showed that NF-kB - induced Pax7 overexpression impairs the myogenic potential of muscle precursors in cachectic mice, suggesting that ...

Spontaneous Activity in Crustacean Neurons [PDF]
The 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 ...

Sloppiness in Spontaneously Active Neuronal Networks [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 2015 Various plasticity mechanisms, including experience-dependent, spontaneous, as well as homeostatic ones, continuously remodel neural circuits. Yet, despite fluctuations in the properties of single neurons and synapses, the behavior and function of neuronal assemblies are generally found to be very stable over time. This raises the important question of

Beyond dreams: do sleep-related movements contribute to brain development?
Frontiers in Neurology, 2010 Conventional wisdom has long held that the twitches of sleeping infants and adults are by-products of a dreaming brain. With the discovery of active (or REM) sleep in the 1950s and the recognition soon thereafter that active sleep is characterized by ...
