Hyperconnectivity of Local Neocortical Microcircuitry Induced by Prenatal Exposure to Valproic Acid

Henry Markram, Gilad Silberberg, Tania Rinaldi

Exposure to valproic acid (VPA) during embryogenesis can cause several teratogenic effects, including developmental delays and in particular autism in humans if exposure occurs during the third week of gestation. We examined the postnatal effects of embryo ...

Cliques of Neurons Bound into Cavities Provide a Missing Link between Structure and Function

Henry Markram, Kathryn Hess Bellwald, Michael Reimann, Rodrigo de Campos Perin, Giuseppe Chindemi, Martina Scolamiero, Max Christian Nolte, Ran Levi, Katharine Felicity Turner

The lack of a formal link between neural network structure and its emergent function has hampered our understanding of how the brain processes information. We have now come closer to describing such a link by taking the direction of synaptic transmission i ...

Preserving axosomatic spiking features despite diverse dendritic morphology

Henry Markram, Felix Schürmann, Idan Segev

Throughout the nervous system, cells belonging to a certain electrical class (e-class)-sharing high similarity in firing response properties-may nevertheless have widely variable dendritic morphologies. To quantify the effect of this morphological variabil ...

Pierre Magistretti, Henry Markram, Felix Schürmann, Daniel Keller, Marwan Muhammad Ahmed Abdellah, Renaud Jolivet, Stefan Eilemann, Jay Coggan, Corrado Cali

One will not understand the brain without an integrated exploration of structure and function, these attributes being two sides of the same coin: together they form the currency of biological computation. Accordingly, biologically realistic models require ...

Anti-Obesity and Anti-Hyperglycemic Effects of Cinnamaldehyde via altered Ghrelin Secretion and Functional impact on Food Intake and Gastric Emptying

Henry Markram, Julie Meystre, Maurizio Ferdinando Pezzoli, Johannes Le Coutre

Cinnamon extract is associated to different health benefits but the active ingredients or pathways are unknown. Cinnamaldehyde (CIN) imparts the characteristic flavor to cinnamon and is known to be the main agonist of transient receptor potential-ankyrin r ...

A Kinetic Map of the Homomeric Voltage-Gated Potassium Channel (Kv) Family

Henry Markram, Rajnish Ranjan, Emmanuelle Logette, Enrico Scantamburlo, Michela Marani, Valérie Buchillier, Mirjia Herzog

The voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels, encoded by 40 genes, repolarize all electrically excitable cells, including plant, cardiac, and neuronal cells. Although these genes were fully sequenced decades ago, a comprehensive kinetic characterization of al ...

Individual differences in sensory sensitivity: Further lessons from an Autism model

Henry Markram, Kamila Markram, Mônica Regina Favre

In this commentary, we join Ward (this issue) in the usefulness of conceptualizing neural output in terms of signal and noise relationships, to create the missing links between neural, behavioral and subjective sensory sensitivity. We draw from our work in ...

Abnormal fear conditioning and amygdala processing in an animal model of autism

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Henry Markram, Kamila Markram, Tania Rinaldi, Deborah La Mendola

A core feature of autism spectrum disorders is the impairment in social interactions. Among other brain regions, a deficit in amygdala processing has been suggested to underlie this impairment, but whether the amygdala is processing fear abnormally in auti ...

Computational Generation of Long-range Axonal Morphologies

Rémy Valentin Petkantchin, Adrien Berchet, Henry Markram, Lida Kanari

Long-range axons are fundamental to brain connectivity and functional organization, enabling communication between different brain regions. Recent advances in experimental techniques have yielded a substantial number of whole-brain axonal reconstructions. ...
