Mediodorsal thalamus lesion increases paradoxical sleep in rats [PDF]
Sleep Science, 2021 Introduction: The mediodorsal thalamic nucleus has extensive connections with prefrontal cortex, which is considered as seat of cognition. It also receives connections from sleep-wakefulness regulating areas in the brainstem and ...

Electrical Synapses in the Thalamic Reticular Nucleus [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 2002 Neurons of the thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN) provide inhibitory input to thalamic relay cells and generate synchronized activity during sleep and seizures. It is widely assumed that TRN cells interact only via chemical synaptic connections. However, we show that many neighboring pairs of TRN neurons in rats and mice are electrically coupled.

Neurobiology of Disease, 2023 Status epilepticus (SE) is a life-threatening emergency that can result in de novo development or worsening of epilepsy. We tested the hypothesis that the aberrant cortical output during neocortical focal status epilepticus (FSE) would induce structural ...

Enduring Effects of Early Life Stress on Firing Patterns of Hippocampal and Thalamocortical Neurons in Rats: Implications for Limbic Epilepsy. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Early life stress results in an enduring vulnerability to kindling-induced epileptogenesis in rats, but the underlying mechanisms are not well understood.

Corticothalamic Inhibition in the Thalamic Reticular Nucleus [PDF]
Journal of Neurophysiology, 2004 Mutual inhibition between the GABAergic cells of the thalamic reticular nucleus (RTN) is important in regulating oscillations in the thalamocortical network, promoting those in the spindle range of frequencies over those at lower frequencies. Excitatory inputs to the RTN from the cerebral cortex are numerically large and particularly powerful in ...

Brain Sciences, 2022 Tinnitus is defined as the phantom perception of sound. To date, there is no curative treatment, and contemporary treatments have failed to show beneficial outcomes. Deep brain stimulation has been suggested as a potential therapy for refractory tinnitus.

Functional Organization of the Thalamic Input to the Thalamic Reticular Nucleus [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 2011 Most axons connecting the thalamus and cortex in both directions pass through the thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN), a thin layer of GABAergic cells adjacent to the thalamus, and innervate neurons there. The TRN, therefore, is in a strategic location to regulate thalamocortical communication. We recorded neurons of the somatosensory region of the TRN in

Does Corticothalamic Feedback Control Cortical Velocity Tuning? [PDF]
, 2001 The thalamus is the major gate to the cortex and its contribution to cortical receptive field properties is well established. Cortical feedback to the thalamus is, in turn, the anatomically dominant input to relay cells, yet its influence on thalamic ...

Nature Communications, 2020 Neuroligins are postsynaptic cell adhesion molecules that are involved in synapse function and autism spectrum disorder. The authors show that NLG2-mediated GABAergic transmission at the thalamic reticular nucleus-thalamic circuit is a common mechanism ...
