Neuronal migration prevents spatial competition in retinal morphogenesis

Martin Weigert

The concomitant occurrence of tissue growth and organization is a hallmark of organismal development(1-3). This often means that proliferating and differentiating cells are found at the same time in a continuously changing tissue environment. How cells ada ...

The Neuron Phenotype Ontology: A FAIR Approach to Proposing and Classifying Neuronal Types

Sean Lewis Hill, Mohameth François Sy

The challenge of defining and cataloging the building blocks of the brain requires a standardized approach to naming neurons and organizing knowledge about their properties. The US Brain Initiative Cell Census Network, Human Cell Atlas, Blue Brain Project, ...

First-person body view modulates the neural substrates of episodic memory and autonoetic consciousness: A functional connectivity study

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Thomas William Arthur Bolton, Baptiste Gauthier, Robin Mange, Lucie Bréchet, Florian Lance

Episodic memory (EM) is classically conceived as a memory for events, localized in space and time, and characterized by autonoetic consciousness (ANC) allowing to mentally travel back in time and subjectively relive an event. Building on recent evidence th ...

Towards a supervised classification of neocortical interneuron morphologies

Sean Lewis Hill

BackgroundThe challenge of classifying cortical interneurons is yet to be solved. Data-driven classification into established morphological types may provide insight and practical value.ResultsWe trained models using 217 high-quality morphologies of rat so ...

Anatomy and physiology of the thick-tufted layer 5 pyramidal neuron

Henry Markram, Srikanth Ramaswamy

The thick-tufted layer 5 (TTL5) pyramidal neuron is one of the most extensively studied neuron types in the mammalian neocortex and has become a benchmark for understanding information processing in excitatory neurons. By virtue of having the widest local ...

Synaptic and cellular organization of layer 1 of the developing rat somatosensory cortex

Henry Markram, Shruti Muralidhar

Layer 1 of the neocortex is sparsely populated with neurons and heavily innervated by fibers from lower layers and proximal and distal brain regions. Understanding the potential functions of this layer requires a comprehensive understanding of its cellular ...

A Hierarchical Structure of Cortical Interneuron Electrical Diversity Revealed by Automated Statistical Analysis

Henry Markram, Felix Schürmann, Sean Lewis Hill, Idan Segev

Although the diversity of cortical interneuron electrical properties is well recognized, the number of distinct electrical types (e-types) is still a matter of debate. Recently, descriptions of interneuron variability were standardized by multiple laborato ...

Synaptic Computation and Sensory Processing in Neocortical Layer 2/3

Carl Petersen, Sylvain Crochet

Computations in neocortical circuits are predominantly driven by synaptic integration of excitatory glutamatergic and inhibitory GABAergic inputs. New optical, electrophysiological, and genetic methods allow detailed in vivo investigation of the superficia ...

NuMA phosphorylation by CDK1 couples mitotic progression with cortical dynein function

Pierre Gönczy, Coralie Busso, Sachin Kotak

Spindle positioning and spindle elongation are critical for proper cell division. In human cells, an evolutionary conserved ternary complex (NuMA/LGN/Gαi) anchors dynein at the cortex during metaphase, thus ensuring correct spindle positioning. Whether thi ...

Predictive Engineering the Membrane Composition of Neocortical Neurons

Georges Khazen

The brain is the most mysterious and intricate biological structure known to man. It dominates the way we live, think, reason and behave. It is built of billions of neurons that communicate with each other through trillions of connections using electrical ...

Decreased Lin7b expression in layer 5 pyramidal neurons may contribute to impaired corticostriatal connectivity in huntington disease

Motor dysfunction, cognitive impairment, and regional cortical atrophy indicate cerebral cortical involvement in Huntington disease (HD). To address the hypothesis that abnormal corticostriatal connectivity arises from polyglutamine-related alterations in ...

Interaction between Reelin and Notch signaling regulates neuronal migration in the cerebral cortex

Freddy Radtke

Neuronal migration is a fundamental component of brain development whose failure is associated with various neurological and psychiatric disorders. Reelin is essential for the stereotypical inside-out sequential lamination of the neocortex, but the molecul ...

NEOBASE: databasing the neocortical microcircuit

Henry Markram

Mammals adapt to a rapidly changing world because of the sophisticated perceptual and cognitive function enabled by the neocortex. The neocortex, which has expanded to constitute nearly 80% of the human brain seems to have arisen from repeated duplication ...
