Modeling and simulation of neocortical micro- and mesocircuitry. Part II: Physiology and experimentation

Henry Markram, Eilif Benjamin Muller, Srikanth Ramaswamy, Michael Reimann, James Gonzalo King, Rajnish Ranjan, Armando Romani, Mustafa Anil Tuncel, Aleksandra Zuzanna Teska, Polina Litvak

Cortical dynamics underlie many cognitive processes and emerge from complex multi-scale interactions, which are challenging to study in vivo. Large-scale, biophysically detailed models offer a tool which can complement laboratory approaches. We present a m ...

Preliminary evidence that daily light exposure enhances the antibody response to influenza vaccination in patients with dementia

Jean-Louis Scartezzini

Enhancing lighting conditions in institutions for individuals with dementia improves their sleep, circadian rhythms and well-being. Here, we report first findings that exposure to brighter light during daytime may support the immune response to the annual ...

Genetic selection for low glucocorticoid responsiveness recapitulates PTSD-related phenotypes: a behavioral, neuroimaging and sleep-physiology study

Silvia Monari

Humans show inter-individual differences in vulnerability to develop post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) following exposure to trauma. Several critical biobehavioral features have been consistently described in PTSD patients, including blunted cortisol l ...

REM sleep and muscle atonia in brainstem stroke: A quantitative polysomnographic and lesion analysis study

Lukas Heydrich, Eva Blondiaux

Important brainstem regions are involved in the regulation of rapid eye movement sleep. We hypothesized that brainstem stroke is associated with dysregulated rapid eye movement sleep and related muscle activity. We compared quantitative/qualitative polysom ...

Putting Temperature into the Equation: Development and Validation of Algorithms to Distinguish Non-Wearing from Inactivity and Sleep in Wearable Sensors

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Sara Pagnamenta

Long-term monitoring of real-life physical activity (PA) using wearable devices is increasingly used in clinical and epidemiological studies. The quality of the recorded data is an important issue, as unreliable data may negatively affect the outcome measu ...

Glutathione in the nucleus accumbens regulates motivation to exert reward-incentivized effort

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Lijing Xin, Ioannis Zalachoras, Olivia Zanoletti, Simone Astori, João Pedro de Matos Rodrigues, Fiona Hollis, Pascal Steiner, Alina Veronika Irene Strasser, Eva Ramos Fernandez

Emerging evidence is implicating mitochondrial function and metabolism in the nucleus accumbens in motivated performance. However, the brain is vulnerable to excessive oxidative insults resulting from neurometabolic processes, and whether antioxidant level ...

Optimized office lighting advances melatonin phase and peripheral heat loss prior bedtime

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Mirjam Münch, Marta Benedetti, Lenka Maierova

Improving indoor lighting conditions at the workplace has the potential to support proper circadian entrainment of hormonal rhythms, sleep, and well-being. We tested the effects of optimized dynamic daylight and electric lighting on circadian phase of mela ...

Associations between urinary biomarkers of oxidative stress and biomarkers of tobacco smoke exposure in smokers

Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Dominique Grandjean, Nicolas Sambiagio

Oxidative stress can contribute to the development of diseases, and may originate from exposures to toxicants commonly found in air pollution and cigarette smoke such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Yet, as ...

A conditional GABAergic synaptic vesicle marker for Drosophila

Brian Donal McCabe

Background: Throughout the animal kingdom, GABA is the principal inhibitory neurotransmitter of the nervous system. It is essential for maintaining the homeostatic balance between excitation and inhibition required for the brain to operate normally. Identi ...

Theory and application of a data-driven approach to compressive spectrometry in the assessment of neurophotic stimulation

Forrest Simon Webler

Recent advances in biology and neuroscience have elucidated pathways in which visible light initiates a signaling process, via the eye, responsible for activating direct and indirect biological responses. While the full impact of unnatural light patterns o ...
