Altered Cortical-Striatal Network in Patients With Hemifacial Spasm
Objective: Hemifacial spasm (HFS) is a kind of motor disorder, and the striatum plays a significant role in motor function. The purpose of this study was to explore the alterations of the cortical-striatal network in HFS using resting-state functional ...

The dynamics of striatum circuitry [PDF]
Learning new motor skills is an integral and essential part of our life. Remember the first time riding a bike or learning to ski? After a new skill is acquired, the once daunting task becomes effortless and automatic. How does our brain accomplish such a feat? Which brain systems are involved, and how? A recent article by Yin et al.

Autophagic bias in the striatum [PDF]
Macroautophagy/autophagy is implicated in the maintenance of normal neuronal activity through the regulation of synaptic function and plasticity. However, differences in autophagic degradation within different classes of neurons have not been examined.

NT-4/5 Exacerbates Free Radical-Induced Neuronal Necrosis in Vitro and in Vivo
Neurotrophins render neurons highly vulnerable to certain injuries. We examined the possibility that NT-4/5 would enhance free radical neurotoxicity in vivo as well as in vitro.

Kinetics and durability of transgene expression after intrastriatal injection of AAV9 vectors
Understanding the kinetics and durability of AAV-mediated transgene expression in the brain is essential for conducting basic neuroscience studies as well as for developing gene therapy approaches for CNS diseases.

Ramping activity in the striatum
Control of the timing of behavior is thought to require the basal ganglia (BG) and BG pathologies impair performance in timing tasks. Temporal interval discrimination depends on the ramping activity of medium spiny neurons (MSN) in the main BG input structure, the striatum, but the underlying mechanisms driving this activity are unclear.
