Recording data suggest a form of synaptic homeostasis emergent in both HVC and RA as a result of the profound loss of (inhibitory?) tone in HVC ... despite perturbations in underlying motor circuits.

Conventional ABIs rest on the dorsal surface of the cochlear nucleus, which has a 3 mm radius and a complex shape. Rigid electrodes leave air gaps, leading to excessive current spread and ...

While the brain's contribution to the encoding and processing of pain has been widely explored in the past, the role that neural circuits in ... crucial role of Gal + inhibitory neurons in the ...

Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology, Washington University School of Medicine, Saint Louis, MO, United States The dorsal raphe nucleus is a critical node for affective and motivated circuits in the ...

that are generated in brain circuits that rely on both excitatory and inhibitory inputs. The researchers showed that gamma waves change significantly with age, with low amplitude broadband waves ...

This paper explores how diverse forms of inhibition impact firing rates in models for cortical circuits. In particular, the paper studies how the network operating point affects the balance of direct ...

and NT may directly increase the activity of local inhibitory neurons through NTR2 and induce analgesic effects. Nociceptive information is transferred from the periphery to the spinal dorsal horn ...
