Prenatal VPA exposure and changes in sensory processing by the superior colliculus

Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2011
Disorders involving dysfunctional sensory processing are characterized by an inability to filter sensory information, particularly simultaneously arriving multimodal inputs. We examined the effects of prenatal exposure to valproic acid (VPA), a teratogen

Microvascular imaging of the unstained human superior colliculus using synchrotron-radiation phase-contrast microtomography

Scientific Reports, 2022
Characterizing the microvasculature of the human brain is critical to advance understanding of brain vascular function. Most methods rely on tissue staining and microscopy in two-dimensions, which pose several challenges to visualize the three ...

Evaluation of atlas based mouse brain segmentation [PDF]

, 2009
Magentic Reasonance Imaging for mouse phenotype study is one of the important tools to understand human diseases. In this paper, we present a fully automatic pipeline for the process of morphometric mouse brain analysis.

Did you choose appropriate tracer for retrograde tracing of retinal ganglion cells? The differences between cholera toxin subunit B and Fluorogold. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Cholera toxin subunit B (CTB) and Fluorogold(FG) are two widely utilized retrograde tracers to assess the number and function of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs).

Electrical stimulation of the superior colliculus induces non- topographically organized perturbation of reaching movements in cats

Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2015
Besides its well-known contribution to orienting behaviors, the superior colliculus (SC) might also play a role in controlling visually-guided reaching movements.

Segmentation of the C57BL/6J mouse cerebellum in magnetic resonance images [PDF]

, 2012
The C57BL mouse is the centerpiece of efforts to use gene-targeting technology to understand cerebellar pathology, thus creating a need for a detailed magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) atlas of the cerebellum of this strain.

Effects of ocular hypertension in the visual system of pigmented mice. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
To study the effects of ocular hypertension (OHT) on the visual system of C57BL/6 pigmented mice, the limbal and episcleral veins of the left eye were laser photocoagulated (LP).

Anterograde transport blockade precedes deficits in retrograde transport in the visual projection of the DBA/2J mouse model of glaucoma

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2014
Axonal transport deficits have been reported as an early pathology in several neurodegenerative disorders, including glaucoma. However, the progression and mechanisms of these deficits are poorly understood.

Inside the head of Crotalus durissus LINNAEUS, 1758 (Serpentes, Viperidae, Crotalinae): Macroscopic description of the brain with ontogenetic insights

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuroanatomy studies in vertebrates have garnered significant attention in recent years, particularly driven by advancements in computerized tomography imaging techniques. Nonetheless, these advancements remain largely constrained to specific vertebrate groups, notably mammals, birds, and fish, leaving studies in reptiles at an incipient stage.

Hydrocephalus caused by conditional ablation of the Pten or beta-catenin gene

Cerebrospinal Fluid Research, 2008
To investigate the roles of Pten and β-Catenin in the midbrain, either the Pten gene or the β-catenin gene was conditionally ablated, using Dmbx1 (diencephalon/mesencephalon-expressed brain homeobox gene 1)-Cre mice.
