Anatomical and functional characterization of neocortical circuits involved in transforming whisker sensory processing into goal-directed licking

The choice of an action upon perception of an external stimulus, arriving at a sensory organ of an animal, depends on previous experiences and outcomes throughout its life. In the rodent brain, the underlying mechanisms involved in simple sensorimotor tran ...

An automatic multi-tissue human fetal brain segmentation benchmark using the Fetal Tissue Annotation Dataset

Meritxell Bach Cuadra, Hamza Kebiri

It is critical to quantitatively analyse the developing human fetal brain in order to fully understand neurodevelopment in both normal fetuses and those with congenital disorders. To facilitate this analysis, automatic multi-tissue fetal brain segmentation ...

Computational model of the dorsal horn circuitry for innocuous touch

Silvestro Micera, Simone Romeni

Providing a naturalistic tactile sensory feedback is currently one of the key challenges in neuroprosthetics. Modeling has played a fundamental role in the development of "biomimetic" stimulation protocols, determining optimal activation patterns to be eli ...

Elezanumab, a human anti-RGMa monoclonal antibody, promotes neuroprotection, neuroplasticity, and neurorecovery following a thoracic hemicompression spinal cord injury in non-human primates

Grégoire Courtine, Quentin Barraud, Lili Huang, Xiaomeng Zhang

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating condition characterized by loss of function, secondary to damaged spinal neurons, disrupted axonal connections, and myelin loss. Spontaneous recovery is limited, and there are no approved pharmaceutical treatments ...

Anatomically and functionally distinct thalamocortical inputs to primary and secondary mouse whisker somatosensory cortices

Carl Petersen, Georgios Foustoukos, Sami El-Boustani, Berat Semihcan Sermet

Subdivisions of mouse whisker somatosensory thalamus project to cortex in a region-specific and layer-specific manner. However, a clear anatomical dissection of these pathways and their functional properties during whisker sensation is lacking. Here, we us ...

Human Cochlear Nucleus on 7 Tesla Diffusion Tensor Imaging: Insights Into Micro-anatomy and Function for Auditory Brainstem Implant Surgery

Nicolas Vachicouras

Objective:The cochlear nucleus (CN) is the target of the auditory brainstem implant (ABI). Most ABI candidates have Neurofibromatosis Type 2 (NF2) and distorted brainstem anatomy from bilateral vestibular schwannomas. The CN is difficult to characterize as ...

Corticolumbar dynamics during recovery after spinal cord injury

Selin Anil

In humans, a severe spinal cord contusion interrupts the vast majority of supraspinal projections to the spinal cord below the lesion. Permanent paralysis results from the chronic failure of these spared projections to engage lumbar circuits producing leg ...

Brainstem Correlates of a Cold Pressor Test Measured by Ultra-High Field fMRI

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Olivier Benoit Thomas Reynaud, Domenica Bueti, Fatma Megdiche

Introduction Modern imaging techniques such as blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) allow the non-invasive and indirect measurement of brain activity. Whether changes in signal intensity can be detected in small ...

Cortical Projection From the Premotor or Primary Motor Cortex to the Subthalamic Nucleus in Intact and Parkinsonian Adult Macaque Monkeys: A Pilot Tracing Study

Jocelyne Bloch, Simon Borgognon, Simon Pierre Jean Badoud

Besides the main cortical inputs to the basal ganglia, via the corticostriatal projection, there is another input via the corticosubthalamic projection (CSTP), terminating in the subthalamic nucleus (STN). The present study investigated and compared the CS ...

Establishment of a Therapeutic Ratio for Gamma Knife Radiosurgery of Trigeminal Neuralgia: The Critical Importance of Biologically Effective Dose Versus Physical Dose

Constantin Tuleasca

OBJECTIVE: How variations of treatment time affect the safety and efficacy of Gamma Knife (GK) radiosurgery is a matter of considerable debate. With the relative simplicity of treatment planning for trigeminal neuralgia (TN), this question has been address ...
