Its identification, at the turning of the nineteenth century, was based on the...

We found that double-labeled ORX and CTb neurons were the most abundant after CTb was injected into the LC. We also observed prominently overlapping distribution of BDA-labeled fibers, arising from neurons located in the lateral-most part of the dorsomedial nucleus and adjacent dorsal periforni...
Study the human skull's anatomy. Examine a labeled diagram of the skull to learn about the different cranial bones and discover how many bones are in the skull. Related to this Question The ___ bone forms part of the anterior cranial fossa...
1. We made recordings from neurons in dorsal of the lateral lemniscus (DNLL), determined intrinsic and synaptic physiological properties, and labeled the cells by injection of biocytin. Biocytin-labeled neurons were reconstructed and classified according to their somatic and dendritic morphology. 2. ...
The ventricular system plays a vital role in blood-cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) exchange and interstitial fluid-CSF drainage pathways. CSF is formed in the specialized secretory tissue called the choroid plexus, which consists of epithelial cells, fenestrat
aTypically, the DNA of apoptotic cells is cleaved to a population of multimers of 180–200bp fragments, readily observed as a ladder on agarose gels. Apoptotic cells have been clearly labeled in vibratome sections of rat brain after axotomy-induced neuronal death in the lateral geniculate nucleus...
mounted sections were imaged with fluorescence microscopy to locate the labeled cells. Cells were assigned based on the pre-recorded coordinates and location relative to other cells in the recorded brain. We recovered, assigned, and measured the coordinates of 34 labeled cells. Accuracy of the recor...
SharpView PDFAbstract We recorded head direction (HD) cells from the lateral mammillary nucleus (LMN) and anterior thalamus (ATN) of freely behaving rats and also made bilateral lesions of LMN while recording HD cells from ATN. We discovered that the tuning functions of LMN HD cells become ...
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease characterized by the progressive loss of motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord, and there are no effective drug treatments. Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) has garnered attention as a promising noninvasive neuro...
