Drosophila employ two distinct neural circuit mechanisms, 'walk-OFF' and 'brake', to implement context-appropriate halting during walking, feeding, and grooming behaviors.
The freshness of cat saliva, which signals the imminence of predator threat, is detected by the vomeronasal organ and differentially activates neurons in the ventromedial hypothalamus to modulate the intensity of freezing behavior in mice.
Gustatory receptor neurons (GRNs) directly detect odors and integrate odor and taste inputs to enhance feeding behavior in Drosophila.
Subcellularly restricted non-lethal caspase activation is regulated by the proximity of executioner caspases to specific membrane proteins, such as the Fasciclin 3 isoform G, which promotes the expression and recruitment of the initiator caspase Dronc.
Glaucoma-associated mutations in the mitophagy receptor Optineurin (OPTN) increase the fraction of stationary mitochondria, OPTN, and LC3b within retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axons, as well as the shedding of mitochondria from axons and their subsequent degradation by surrounding astrocytes.
마우스 소뇌 피질에서 tDCS는 신경세포의 소마-수상돌기 방향에 따라 다양한 방식으로 활성을 변조한다.
The somatodendritic orientation of Purkinje cells in the mouse cerebellar cortex determines the polarity-dependent modulation of their firing rate in response to transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS).
사람의 해마와 내측 측두엽 신경세포가 복잡한 이미지 제시 순서의 시간적 구조를 신속하게 인코딩하고, 이를 지속적으로 표현하며, 이를 통해 미래 자극의 확률을 예측한다.
A significant proportion of former professional football players believe they have chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), which is associated with an increased risk of suicidal thoughts.
척수 손상 후 상처 치유 과정에서 PDYN+ 세포가 분비하는 κ-아편 수용체 작용제가 CSF-cN 세포를 자극하여 상피 세포의 증식을 억제하는 내인성 신호 전달 경로가 존재한다.
