Suppression of V1 feedback produces a shift in the topographic representation of receptive fields of LGN cells by unmasking latent retinal drives
(Oxford, 2017-03-18)
[Abstract] In awake monkeys, we used repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to focally inactivate visual cortex while measuring the responsiveness of parvocellular lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) neurons. ...
Intraneural IFG-1 in cryopreserved nerve isografts increase neural regeneration and functional recovery in the rat sciatic nerve
(Oxford, 2018-07-27)
[Abstract] Background: Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) was found to stimulate Schwann cell mitosis. Exogenous IGF-1 may improve nerve regeneration after cryopreservation.
Objective: To evaulate the effect of ...
Endocannabinoid CB1 receptors modulate visual output from the thalamus
(Springer, 2011-07-20)
[Abstract] Rationale Endocannabinoids have emerged as a modulatory
brain system affecting different types of synapses,
broadly distributed throughout the CNS, which explain
the diverse psychophysical effects observed ...
Anandamide activation of CB1 receptors increases spontaneous bursting and oscillatory activity in the thalamus
(Elsevier, 2014-02-05)
[Abstract] The endocannabinoid system is a modulatory system that has been strongly associated with the regulation of functions as learning and memory, pain perception and sensory physiology in many areas of the central ...
Static magnetic fields reduce epileptiform activity in anesthetized rat and monkey
(Nature, 2018-10-30)
[Abstract] Increasing evidence indicates that static magnetic fields (SMF) reduce cortical activity in both human and animal models. The aim of this work was to investigate the effect of SMF on epileptiform cortical activity, ...
Cross‑modal reaction of auditory and visual cortices after long‑term bilateral hearing deprivation in the rat
(Springer Nature, 2019-11-28)
[Abstract]
Visual cortex (VC) over-activation analysed by evoked responses has been demonstrated in congenital deafness and after longterm acquired hearing loss in humans. However, permanent hearing deprivation has not ...
Bursting thalamic responses in awake monkey contribute to visual detection and are modulated by corticofugal feedback
(Frontiers, 2014-05-30)
[Abstract] The lateral geniculate nucleus is the gateway for visual information en route to the visual
cortex. Neural activity is characterized by the existence of two firing modes: burst and
tonic. Originally associated ...
Effects of static magnetic fields on the visual cortex: reversible visual deficits and reduction of neuronal activity
(Oxford, 2014-09-26)
[Abstract] Noninvasive brain stimulation techniques have been successfully used to modulate brain activity, have become a highly useful tool in basic and clinical research and, recently, have attracted increased attention ...
Can pathway-specific LFPs be obtained in cytoarchitectonically complex structures?
(Frontiers, 2014-05-01)
[Abstract] Deciphering how the brain encodes the continuous flow of information contained in natural stimuli requires understanding the spontaneous activity of functional assemblies in multiple neuronal populations. A ...
Vasomotion and Neurovascular Coupling in the Visual Thalamus In Vivo
(PLoS ONE, 2011-12-09)
[Abstract] Spontaneous contraction and relaxation of arteries (and in some instances venules) has been termed vasomotion and has
been observed in an extensive variety of tissues and species. However, its functions and ...
