Optogenetic Dissection of the Basal Forebrain Neuromodulatory Control of Cortical Activation, Plasticity, and Cognition

Carl Petersen

The basal forebrain (BF) houses major ascending projections to the entire neocortex that have long been implicated in arousal, learning, and attention. The disruption of the BF has been linked with major neurological disorders, such as coma and Alzheimer's ...

Apathy and noradrenaline: silent partners to mild cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease?

Kerstin Preuschoff, Leyla Loued-Khenissi

Purpose of review Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a comorbid factor in Parkinson's disease. The aim of this review is to examine the recent neuroimaging findings in the search for Parkinson's disease MCI (PD-MCI) biomarkers to gain insight on whether MC ...

Medial Forebrain Bundle Deep Brain Stimulation has Symptom-specific Anti-depressant Effects in Rats and as Opposed to Ventromedial Prefrontal Cortex Stimulation Interacts With the Reward System

Background: In recent years, deep brain stimulation (DBS) has emerged as a promising treatment option for patients suffering from treatment-resistant depression (TRD). Several stimulation targets have successfully been tested in clinical settings, includin ...

The impact of anxiety and reward-seeking traits on social competition and the role of the mesolimbic dopaminergic system

Laura Lozano Montes

Social hierarchies are established across a range of different taxa in the animal kingdom. Given that hierarchy inequalities are highly present in nowadays society and the health problems that low rank individuals suffer from this, it is surprising that no ...

Dysfunction in endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondria crosstalk underlies SIGMAR1 loss of function mediated motor neuron degeneration

Roman Chrast, Nathalie Marie Géraldine Bernard

Mutations in SIGMAR1, which encodes the Sigma 1 receptor, cause a familial form of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are unclear. Bernard-Marissal et al. reveal that disruption of Sigma 1 receptor function disturbs endo ...

Phase-based manganese enhanced MRI, a new methodology to enhance brain cytoarchitectural contrast and study manganese uptake

Rolf Gruetter, José Pedro Rebelo Ferreira Marques, Rajika Maddage

Purpose As the magnetic susceptibility induced frequency shift increases linearly with magnetic field strength, the present work evaluates manganese as a phase imaging contrast agent and investigates the dose dependence of brain enhancement in comparison t ...

Emergence of Connectivity Motifs in Networks of Model Neurons with Short- and Long-Term Plastic Synapses

Michele Giugliano

Recent experimental data from the rodent cerebral cortex and olfactory bulb indicate that specific connectivity motifs are correlated with short-term dynamics of excitatory synaptic transmission. It was observed that neurons with short-term facilitating sy ...

Functional Characterization of the Mouse Olfactory Receptor mOR256-17 in Live Cells

Thamani Dahoun

Olfactory receptors (ORs) constitute the largest family of sensory membrane proteins in mammals. They play a key role within the olfactory system to recognize and discriminate a nearly unlimited number of structurally diverse odorant molecules. The molecul ...
