Chinese Clinical Practice Guidelines for Auditory Neuropathy (gCAN)
ABSTRACT Auditory neuropathy (AN) is an auditory disorder that affects the function of the auditory pathway. An increasing number of AN cases have been identified with the revelation of the underlying mechanisms, the advancements of diagnostic and detecting techniques.

Whisker-related afferents in superior colliculus
Rodents use their whiskers to explore the environment, and the superior colliculus is part of the neural circuits that process this sensorimotor information. Cells in the intermediate layers of the superior colliculus integrate trigeminotectal afferents from trigeminal complex and corticotectal afferents from barrel cortex.

Astrocytic Hevin/SPARCL‐1 Regulates Cognitive Decline in Pathological and Normal Brain Aging
Hevin/Sparcl‐1 is a synaptogenic protein secreted by astrocytes. We used adeno‐associated virus (AAV) to increase its expression in hippocampal astrocytes of APP/PSEN1 mice, an animal model for Alzheimer's disease (AD). This procedure improved cognitive performance both in the AD model and in middle‐aged wild‐type animals.

Population Coding of Interaural Time Differences in Gerbils and Barn Owls [PDF]
Interaural time differences (ITDs) are the primary cue for the localization of low-frequency sound sources in the azimuthal plane. For decades, it was assumed that the coding of ITDs in the mammalian brain was similar to that in the avian brain, where ...

Superior Colliculus Does Play Dice [PDF]
Random is not a word often used in describing nervous system organization and its development. Yet, in this issue of Neuron, Owens et al. (2015) identify stochastic interactions of molecular and activity-dependent forces that can produce heterogeneous retinocollicular maps.

(A) PPN‐cholinergic neurons degenerate during PD. We stereologically counted their rostro‐caudal distribution in post‐mortem PPNs in health versus PD. (Bi) Serial PPN‐containing samples were cholinergic antibody‐DAB stained. (Bii) Only DAB‐stained neurons on green lines and inside the box were counted.

ERNEST COST action overview on the (patho)physiology of GPCRs and orphan GPCRs in the nervous system
G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are a large family of cell surface receptors that play a critical role in nervous system function by transmitting signals between cells and their environment. They are involved in many, if not all, nervous system processes, and their dysfunction has been linked to various neurological disorders representing important

Neural processing of imminent collision in humans [PDF]
Detecting a looming object and its imminent collision is imperative to survival. For most humans, it is a fundamental aspect of daily activities such as driving, road crossing and participating in sport, yet little is known about how the brain both ...

Orientation columns in the mouse superior colliculus
More than twenty types of retinal ganglion cells conduct visual information from the eye to the rest of the brain. Each retinal ganglion cell type tessellates the retina in a regular mosaic, so that every point in visual space is processed for visual primitives such as contrast and motion.

Abstract Kisspeptin (KP) signaling in the brain is defined by the anatomical distribution of KP‐producing neurons, their fibers, receptors, and connectivity. Technological advances have prompted a re‐evaluation of these chemoanatomical aspects, originally studied in the early years after the discovery of KP and its receptor Kiss1r.
