Targeted regeneration of spinal cord neurons across a complete injury restores walking

Marco Milano

Spinal cord injury (SCI) interrupts axonal connections between the brain and the spinal cord, and is characterized by a spectrum of sensorimotor and autonomic impairments. While spontaneous recovery is limited, recent studies have shown that functional imp ...

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 ...

Modulation of working memory duration by synaptic and astrocytic mechanisms

Sophia Becker

Short-term synaptic plasticity and modulations of the presynaptic vesicle release rate are key components of many working memory models. At the same time, an increasing number of studies suggests a potential role of astrocytes in modulating higher cognitiv ...

Acquisition-dependent modulation of hippocampal neural cell adhesion molecules by associative motor learning

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez

It is widely accepted that some types of learning involve structural and functional changes of hippocampal synapses. Cell adhesion molecules neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM), its polysialylated form polysialic acid to NCAM (PSA-NCAM), and L1 are promin ...

Optogenetic Interrogation of Circuits Following Neurotrauma

Grégoire Courtine, Steven Lee Ceto

Biological and engineering strategies for neural repair and recovery from neurotrauma continue to emerge at a rapid pace. Until recently, studies of the impact of neurotrauma and repair strategies on the reorganization of the central nervous system have fo ...

Structural architecture of the Neuronal-Glial-Vascular system

Eleftherios Zisis

Brain functionality relies on the neuronal-glial-vascular (NGV) ensemble for energy support. However, the details of the complex biological mechanisms involved in these processes and the microscopic interactions between these three components are not yet f ...

Long term effects of peripubertal stress on excitatory and inhibitory circuits in the prefrontal cortex of male and female mice

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez

The impact of stressful events is especially important during early life, because certain cortical regions, especially the prefrontal cortex (PFC), are still developing. Consequently, aversive experiences that occur during the peripubertal period can cause ...

Temporal stability of stimulus representation increases along rodent visual cortical hierarchies

Liviu Soltuzu

Cortical representations of brief, static stimuli become more invariant to identity-preserving transformations along the ventral stream. Likewise, increased invariance along the visual hierarchy should imply greater temporal persistence of temporally struc ...

Optical phase contrast imaging of human retinal cells by changing the tissue refractive index

Christophe Moser, Timothé Laforest, Laura Emmanuelle Kowalczuk, Mathieu Künzi

Purpose : Based on oblique partially coherent illumination of transparent samples, we developed a simple custom Optical Phase Imaging (OPI) microscope providing a label-free, semi-quantitative phase contrast imaging. The aim of this study was to explore th ...

FM19G11-Loaded Gold Nanoparticles Enhance the Proliferation and Self-Renewal of Ependymal Stem Progenitor Cells Derived from ALS Mice

Francesco Stellacci

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease affecting motor neurons. In ALS mice, neurodegeneration is associated with the proliferative restorative attempts of ependymal stem progenitor cells (epSPCs) that normally lie i ...

Decoupling of brain function from structure reveals regional behavioral specialization in humans

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Maria Giulia Preti

The brain is an assembly of neuronal populations interconnected by structural pathways. Brain activity is expressed on and constrained by this substrate. Therefore, statistical dependencies between functional signals in directly connected areas can be expe ...

Notch2 Signaling Maintains NSC Quiescence in the Murine Ventricular-Subventricular Zone

Freddy Radtke

Neurogenesis continues in the ventricular-subventricular zone (V-SVZ) of the adult forebrain from quiescent neural stem cells (NSCs). V-SVZ NSCs are a reservoir for new olfactory bulb (OB) neurons that migrate through the rostral migratory stream (RMS). To ...

In vivo pulse labeling of isochronic cohorts of cells in the central nervous system using FlashTag

Subashika Govindan

The tracing of neuronal cell lineages is critical to our understanding of cellular diversity in the CNS. This protocol describes a fluorescence birth-dating technique to label, track and isolate isochronic cohorts of newborn cells in the CNS in vivo in mou ...

A Cell Atlas for the Mouse Brain

Henry Markram, Daniel Keller, Marc-Oliver Gewaltig

Despite vast numbers of studies of stained cells in the mouse brain, no current brain atlas provides region-by-region neuron counts. In fact, neuron numbers are only available for about 4% of brain of regions and estimates often vary by as much as 3-fold. ...

Tight Coupling of Astrocyte pH Dynamics to Epileptiform Activity Revealed by Genetically Encoded pH Sensors

Henry Markram

Astrocytes can both sense and shape the evolution of neuronal network activity and are known to possess unique ion regulatory mechanisms. Here we explore the relationship between astrocytic intracellular pH dynamics and the synchronous network activity tha ...

Regulation Of Neuron-Astrocyte Metabolic Coupling Across The Sleep-Wake Cycle

Pierre Magistretti

Over the last thirty years, a growing number of studies showed that astrocytes play a pivotal role in the energy support to synapses. More precisely, astrocytes adjust energy production to neuronal energy needs through different mechanisms grouped under th ...

Three-dimensional immersive virtual reality for studying cellular compartments in 3D models from EM preparations of neural tissues

Pierre Magistretti, Corrado Cali

Advances in the application of electron microscopy (EM) to serial imaging are opening doors to new ways of analyzing cellular structure. New and improved algorithms and workflows for manual and semiautomated segmentation allow us to observe the spatial arr ...

Channel-Mediated Lactate Release by K+-Stimulated Astrocytes

Pierre Magistretti, Patrick Aebischer, Bernard Schneider, Sylvain Eric Lengacher

Excitatory synaptic transmission is accompanied by a local surge in interstitial lactate that occurs despite adequate oxygen availability, a puzzling phenomenon termed aerobic glycolysis. In addition to its role as an energy substrate, recent studies have ...

Recapitulating De Novo Alpha-Synuclein Fibrillization in a Novel Neuronal Model of Parkinson's Disease

Mohamed Bilal Fares

Athough it has been established for over 100 years that Lewy bodies (LBs) represent the major pathological hallmark of Parkinson's disease (PD), we still do not know why these fibrillar intra-neuronal inclusions of the α-Synuclein (α-Syn) protein form, and ...
