We review recent rain-scanning (fMRI) evidence that activity in certain sub-cortical structures of the human brain correlate with changes in expected reward, as well as with risk. Risk is measured by variance of payoff, as in Markowitz' theory. The brain s ...
The energy requirements of the brain are very high, and tight regulatory mechanisms operate to ensure adequate spatial and temporal delivery of energy substrates in register with neuronal activity. Astrocytes a type of glial cell have emerged as active pla ...
Super Paramagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles (SPIONs) com-bined with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are under clinical evaluation to enhance detection of neurodegenerative diseases. A major improvement would be to link therapeutic drugs to the SPIONs to a ...
Classical neuroenergetics states that glucose is the exclusive energy substrate of brain cells and its full oxidation provides all the necessary energy to support brain function. Recent data have revealed a more intricate picture in which astrocytes play a ...
In addition to glucose, monocarboxylates including lactate represent a major source of energy for the brain, especially during development. We studied the immunocytochemical expression of the monocarboxylate transporters MCT1 and MCT2 in the rat brain betw ...
The effects of 21-day exposure to restraint stress on mRNA levels of the cell adhesion molecules NCAM and L1 were evaluated in different hippocampal regions (CA1, CA3, and dentate gyrus) and other structures (thalamus, prefrontal and frontal cortices, and ...
A BCI allows a person to communicate with the external world using artificial electronic or mechanical devices controlled by means of brain signals. Present-day BCIs can be divided into invasive and noninvasive. Prospective application of invasive BCIs to ...
Water homeostasis in the brain is of central physiologic and clinical importance. Neuronal activity and ion water homeostasis are inextricably coupled. For example, the clearance of K+ from areas of high neuronal activity is associated with a concomitant w ...
The growth kinetics of one-dimensional single-crystalline KNbO3 nanostructures (nanowires and nanofingers, the latter understood as defective nanowires) prepared by hydrothermal processing routes has been theoretically studied. A model taking into account ...
Cerebral rates of anaplerosis are known to be significant, yet the rates measured in vivo have been debated. In order to track glutamate metabolism in brain glutamatergic neurons and brain glia, for the first time unrestrained awake rats were continuously ...
