Information storage and transfer in the brain require a high computational power. Neuronal
network display various local or global mechanisms to allow information storage and …

Visual experience is mediated through a relay of finely-tuned neural circuits extending from
the retina, to retinorecipient nuclei in the midbrain and thalamus, to the cortex which work …

A key function of the mesencephalic locomotor region (MLR) is to control the speed of
forward symmetrical locomotor movements. However, the ability of freely moving mammals …

Astrocytes are increasingly appreciated to possess underestimated and important roles in
modulating neuronal circuits. Astrocytes in striatum can regulate dopamine transmission by …

Calcium in interstitial fluids is central to systemic physiology and a crucial ion pool for entry
into cells through numerous plasma membrane channels. Its study has been limited by the …

I discuss some concepts advanced for the understanding of the complex dynamics of brain
functions, and relate them to approaches in affective, cognitive and action neurosciences …

A surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) biosensor with minimal invasiveness and
high spatial resolution has been developed as a nanoendoscope to detect changes in …

Parkinson's disease (PD) is associated with an increase in secreted S100B within the
midbrain and cerebrospinal fluid. In addition, S100B overexpression in mice accelerates the …

The goals of this review are to improve understanding of the aetiology of chronic muscle
pain and identify new targets for treatments. Muscle pain is usually associated with trigger …

Blockage of the specific ion channel is significant for neuronal dynamics. Astrocytes, the
active partners of neurons, play the role of regulators of many neural activity processes. The …
