Could sudden cardiac death in epilepsy be related to the occurrence of thalamic dysfunction or anatomic change? A morte súbita cardíaca em epilepsia poderia estar relacionada com a ocorrência de alterações anatômicas ou funcionais do tálamo?

Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2009
Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is the most important direct epilepsy-related cause of death in people with chronic epilepsy. Its physiopathology is still unknown; however, the most commonly suggested potential mechanisms involve cardiac or ...

Vitamin D Regulates Olfactory Function via Dual Transcriptional and mTOR‐Dependent Translational Control of Synaptic Proteins

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Vitamin D (VitD) modulates olfactory function by remodeling dendrodendritic synapses in tufted cells through vitamin D receptor‐dependent transcriptional and translational mechanisms. VitD regulates synaptic protein translation partially via mTOR signaling.

Thalamus and pain

Acta Anaesthesiologica Taiwanica, 2013
The thalamus is a key relay station for the transmission of nociceptive information to the cerebral cortex. We review the input-output connection, functional imaging, direct neuronal recording, stimulation, and lesioning studies on the involvement of thalamus in acute and chronic pain functions.

Nurr1 Orchestrates Claustrum Development and Functionality

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Nurr1 (Nr4a2) is the master transcription factor to control claustrum morphogenesis and cell fate decision postmitotically by inhibiting intracellular G‐protein signaling. Nurr1 deficiency alters the transcriptomic profiles of subcortical claustral neurons into neocortical insular neurons, resulting in defected claustrum development, impaired axonal ...

The Geometry of Layer 2/3 Cortical Sound Processing in Slow Wave Sleep

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Sleep is associated with a sensory disconnection whose mechanisms remain elusive. Large neuronal population recordings in the auditory cortex revealed that, in NREM sleep, the neural code for sounds is highly similar to wakefulness, but coordinated modulations of neuron responsiveness intermittently disconnect the local cortical networks from sensory ...

Critical role for the mediodorsal thalamus in permitting rapid reward-guided updating in stochastic reward environments

eLife, 2016
Adaptive decision-making uses information gained when exploring alternative options to decide whether to update the current choice strategy. Magnocellular mediodorsal thalamus (MDmc) supports adaptive decision-making, but its causal contribution is not ...

Parabiosis, Assembloids, Organoids (PAO)

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This review evaluates parabiosis, organoids, and assembloids as complementary disease models spanning systemic, organ, and multi‐organ levels. It highlights their construction strategies, applications, and current limitations, while emphasizing their integration with frontier technologies such as artificial intelligence, organ‐on‐a‐chip, CRISPR, and ...

Unilateral Thalamic Hypometabolism in Patients With Temporal Lobe Epilepsy

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2008
Background/Purpose: Interictal brain 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) is useful for localizing the focus of a seizure, and thalamic hypometabolism has been observed in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE).

A Virtual Clinical Trial of Psychedelics to Treat Patients With Disorders of Consciousness

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Disorders of consciousness after severe brain injury are marked by reduced complexity of brain activity and limited treatment options. Using personalized whole‐brain models, this study shows that simulated lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) and psilocybin shift patient brain dynamics closer to criticality.

Adenylyl Cyclase 8 in Dorsal CA1 Neurons Prevents Depressive‐Like Behaviors by Maintaining Neuronal Excitability and Glutamatergic Neurotransmission Through TIP39‐PTH2R Signaling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Depression, a prevalent neuropsychiatric disorder with unclear pathogenesis, involves dysfunctional adenylyl cyclase 8 (Adcy8) as a key risk factor. Chronic stress selectively reduces Adcy8 expression in the dorsal CA1 (dCA1) neurons. Depletion of Adcy8 in dCA1 excitatory neurons induces depressive‐like behaviors by impairing neuronal excitability and ...
