Digital reconstruction of the mammalian spinal cord: from anatomical reference volume to cell type atlas of the mouse spinal cord

Ihor Kuras

The spinal cord is an elongated nervous structure that together with the brain forms the central nervous system. It relays sensory and motor information between the brain and the body, thus controlling most somatic and autonomic body functions. In recent y ...

Differential Impact of Brain Network Efficiency on Poststroke Motor and Attentional Deficits

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Gabriel Girard, Maximilian Jonas Wessel, Takuya Morishita, Elena Beanato, Philipp Johannes Koch, Andéol Geoffroy Cadic-Melchior, Philip Egger, Nathalie Heidi Meyer, Lisa Aïcha Mireille Julie Fleury, Giorgia Giulia Evangelista, Julia Brügger, Martino Bruno Armando Ceroni, Diego de Leon Rodriguez

Background:Most studies on stroke have been designed to examine one deficit in isolation; yet, survivors often have multiple deficits in different domains. While the mechanisms underlying multiple-domain deficits remain poorly understood, network-theoretic ...

Puckered and JNK signaling in pioneer neurons coordinates the motor activity of the Drosophila embryo

Samuel William Vernon

Central nervous system organogenesis is a complex process that obeys precise architectural rules. The impact that nervous system architecture may have on its functionality remains, however, relatively unexplored. To clarify this problem, we analyze the dev ...

Pum2 and TDP-43 refine area-specific cytoarchitecture post-mitotically and modulate translation of Sox5, Bcl11b, and Rorb mRNAs in developing mouse neocortex

Nagammal Neelagandan

In the neocortex, functionally distinct areas process specific types of information. Area identity is established by morphogens and transcriptional master regulators, but downstream mechanisms driving area-specific neuronal specification remain unclear. He ...

Supervised Learning With Perceptual Similarity for Multimodal Gene Expression Registration of a Mouse Brain Atlas

Henry Markram, Felix Schürmann, Daniel Keller, Csaba Erö, Huanxiang Lu, Dimitri Bruno Marie Rodarie, Francesco Casalegno, Jan Krepl, Emilie Delattre

The acquisition of high quality maps of gene expression in the rodent brain is of fundamental importance to the neuroscience community. The generation of such datasets relies on registering individual gene expression images to a reference volume, a task en ...

Clinical connectome fingerprints of cognitive decline

Enrico Amico

Brain connectome fingerprinting is rapidly rising as a novel influential field in brain network analysis. Yet, it is still unclear whether connectivity fingerprints could be effectively used for mapping and predicting disease progression from human brain d ...

Miniature neurotransmission is required to maintain Drosophila synaptic structures during ageing

Olivier Burri, Evelyne Ruchti, Brian Donal McCabe, Wei Jiao, Soumya Banerjee, Samuel William Vernon

The decline of neuronal synapses is an established feature of ageing accompanied by the diminishment of neuronal function, and in the motor system at least, a reduction of behavioural capacity. Here, we have investigated Drosophila motor neuron synaptic te ...

A Signal Peak Separation Index for axisymmetric B-tensor encoding

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Gabriel Girard, Marco Pizzolato, Jonathan Rafael Patino Lopez, Gaëtan Olivier D Rensonnet

Diffusion-weighted MRI (DW-MRI) has recently seen a rising interest in planar, spherical and general B-tensor encodings. Some of these sequences have aided traditional linear encoding in the estimation of white matter microstructural features, generally by ...

A modeling framework to understand and optimize ultrasound neuromodulation

Théo Lemaire

Over the last decade, Low Intensity Focused Ultrasound Stimulation (LIFUS) has emerged as an attractive technology to modulate the activity of deep neural targets without invasive procedures. However, the underlying mechanisms by which ultrasonic waves can ...

Development of a peripheral neuroprosthesis to elicit fine hand movements in primates

Marion Aimée Geneviève Badi-Dubois

Neurological disorders such as spinal cord lesion and stroke disturb sensorimotor pathways and result in severe motor deficits that can dreadfully impact the quality of life of affected individuals. Strategies aiming at restoring hand function after upper- ...

Modeling spinal locomotor circuits for movements in developing zebrafish

Yann Roussel

Many spinal circuits dedicated to locomotor control have been identified in the developing zebrafish. How these circuits operate together to generate the various swimming movements during development remains to be clarified. In this study, we iteratively b ...

Ultrasound Stimulations Induce Prolonged Depolarization and Fast Action Potentials in Leech Neurons

Silvestro Micera, Théo Lemaire

Objective: Ultrasound (US) stimulation carries the promise of a selective, reversible, and non-invasive modulation of neural activity without the need for genetic manipulation of neural structures. However, the mechanisms of US-induced generation of action ...

Octopamine neuron dependent aggression requires dVGLUT from dual-transmitting neurons

Brian Donal McCabe

Neuromodulators such as monoamines are often expressed in neurons that also release at least one fast-acting neurotransmitter. The release of a combination of transmitters provides both "classical" and "modulatory" signals that could produce diverse and/or ...

Cortical plasticity after hand prostheses use: Is the hypothesis of deafferented cortex "invasion" always true?

Silvestro Micera, Ivo Strauss, Stanisa Raspopovic, Giacomo Valle, Francesco Maria Petrini, Pablo Garcia del Valle, Edoardo D'Anna

Objective: To study motor cortex plasticity after a period of training with a new prototype of bidirectional hand prosthesis in three left trans-radial amputees, correlating these changes with the modification of Phantom Limb Pain (PLP) in the same period. ...

Dynamic spatiotemporal patterns of brain connectivity reorganize across development

Patric Hagmann, Alessandra Griffa, Marie Schaer

Late human development is characterized by the maturation of high-level functional processes, which rely on reshaping of white matter connections, as well as synaptic density. However, the relationship between the whole-brain dynamics and the underlying wh ...

Human Cochlear Nucleus on 7 Tesla Diffusion Tensor Imaging: Insights Into Micro-anatomy and Function for Auditory Brainstem Implant Surgery

Nicolas Vachicouras

Objective:The cochlear nucleus (CN) is the target of the auditory brainstem implant (ABI). Most ABI candidates have Neurofibromatosis Type 2 (NF2) and distorted brainstem anatomy from bilateral vestibular schwannomas. The CN is difficult to characterize as ...

Tutorial: a computational framework for the design and optimization of peripheral neural interfaces

Silvestro Micera, Giacomo Valle, Simone Romeni

Peripheral neural interfaces have been successfully used in the recent past to restore sensory-motor functions in disabled subjects and for the neuromodulation of the autonomic nervous system. The optimization of these neural interfaces is crucial for ethi ...

Functional imaging of rostrocaudal spinal activity during upper limb motor tasks

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Silvestro Micera, Roberto Martuzzi, Elvira Pirondini, Nawal Noëlle Kinany

The spinal cord is the main interface between the brain and the periphery. It notably plays a central role in motor control, as spinal motoneurons activate skeletal muscles involved in voluntary movements. Yet, the spinal mechanisms underlying human moveme ...
