Distinct Roles for Somatically and Dendritically Synthesized Brain

... Dendritic spines undergo the processes of formation, maturation, and pruning during development. Molecular mechanisms controlling spine maturation and pruning remain largely unknown. The gene for brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) produces two pools of mRNA, with either a short or long 3⬘ untr ...

Theta Modulation in the Medial and the Lateral Entorhinal Cortices

... doi:10.1152/jn.01141.2009. Hippocampal neurons show a strong modulation by theta frequency oscillations. This modulation is thought to be important not only for temporal encoding and decoding of information in the hippocampal system, but also for temporal ordering of neuronal activities on timescale ...

Characterization of the functions and regulation of Cdh1–APC and Cdc20–APC in dividing cells has provided invaluable clues for our understanding of the novel functions and mechanisms of the anaphasepromoting complex in the nervous system. Identification of functions of the anaph ...

The episodic hormone release from the GnRH axon terminals results in a rhythmic discharge of the two gonadotropi ...

Therefore, currently D1 is considered a thyroid hormone inactivating enzyme in euthyroid conditions by producing inactive rT3 or T2 [14]. The liver and ...

... is reported to be sufficient to express genes in orexin-containing neurons (Sakurai et al., 1999; Moriguchi et al., 2002). In situ hybridization of prepro-orexin shows orexin-containing neurons are located in the LHA. Prepro-orexin mRNA was shown to be upregulated under fasting conditions, indicating ...

The fear conditioning experiment tests a rat’s response to a specific stimulus and measures how the responses change after learning. In the pre-training stage, the rat r ...
Apparent Loss and Hypertrophy of Interneurons in a Mouse Model
Apparent Loss and Hypertrophy of Interneurons in a Mouse Model

... The neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCL) are progressive neurodegenerative disorders with onset from infancy to adulthood that are manifested by blindness, seizures, and dementia. In NCL, lysosomes accumulate autofluorescent proteolipid in the brain and other tissues. The mnd/mnd mutant mouse was fi ...

... al., 2012). BLA inputs selectively innervate CA neurons, establishing a mechanism for reciprocal interactions (Little and Carter, 2013). However, the overall influence of BLA inputs could be inhibitory if connections are stronger onto local GABAergic interneurons. The PFC also possesses a variety of ...

... changes in the knockout animals. The importance of BDNF for the formation of LTP is further supported by the observation that treatment of hippocampal slices with TrkB receptor bodies inhibited the generation of theta-burst stimulation induced LTP (Kang et al., 1997). The natural onset of LTP expres ...

Activity dynamics and behavioral correlates of CA3 and CA1
Activity dynamics and behavioral correlates of CA3 and CA1

... The CA3 and CA1 pyramidal neurons are the major principal cell types of the hippocampus proper. The strongly recurrent collateral system of CA3 cells and the largely parallel-organized CA1 neurons suggest that these regions perform distinct computations. However, a comprehensive comparison between C ...

... Six female Dutch-belted rabbits (;2 kg) with clean external ears were used in these experiments. The preparatory surgery already has been described (Batra and Fitzpatrick 1997). Each rabbit was prepared for recording in two steps. During both steps, the rabbit was anesthetized with a mixture of keta ...

... The preoptic area (POA) of the anterior hypothalamus and the adjacent basal forebrain (BFB) play an important role in the regulation of homeostatic and cognitive processes, including blood pressure, thermoregulation, sexual behavior, attention, learning, and cortical activity (Boulant and Dean, 1986 ...
Gamma Oscillations in the Hippocampus
Gamma Oscillations in the Hippocampus

... It has long been known that gamma oscillations emerge in sensory cortices in response to sensory stimulation (1, 67). Interest in gamma oscillations increased in the 1980s when researchers began to suspect that gamma oscillations in sensory cortices offered a possible solution to the so-called “bind ...

... Consistent with the relatively high abundance of this neuronal isoform in the hippocampus, total Nf1 mRNA was reduced by 36 ± 7% (n = 9, Figure 1b), with concomitant reduction of total neurofibromin protein (a reduction of 39 ± 2% in the hippocampus, n = 11; Figures 1b and c). Nf19a–/9a– mice were bo ...

Magel2 Is Required for Leptin-Mediated Depolarization of POMC

... Prader-Willi Syndrome is the most common syndromic form of human obesity and is caused by the loss of function of several genes, including MAGEL2. Mice lacking Magel2 display increased weight gain with excess adiposity and other defects suggestive of hypothalamic deficiency. We demonstrate Magel2-nu ...
