Myelinated Type A fibers carry sensations of fast pain, or prickling pain, such as that caused by an injection or deep cut. These sensations reach the CNS very quickly and often trigger somatic reflexes. They are also relayed ...

... Experimental animal studies require a different definition of declarative and episodic memory, because animals are not able to make overt reports about what they remember. It has been argued that episodic-like memories should contain at least a “what”, a “where” and a “when” component (Tulving, 1972 ...

Aging brain

Age is a major risk factor for most common neurodegenerative diseases, including Mild cognitive impairment, Alzheimer's disease, cerebrovascular disease, Parkinson's disease and Lou Gehrig's disease. While much research has focused on diseases of aging, there are few informative studies on the molecular biology of the aging brain (usually spelled ageing brain in British English) in the absence of neurodegenerative disease or the neuropsychological profile of healthy older adults. However, research does suggest that the aging process is associated with several structural, chemical, and functional changes in the brain as well as a host of neurocognitive changes. Recent reports in model organisms suggest that as organisms age, there are distinct changes in the expression of genes at the single neuron level. This page is devoted to reviewing the changes associated with healthy aging.
