A Rodent Animal Model for Forelimb to Lower Jaw Reorganization in Primary Somatosensory Cortex (SI) Barrel Field
… our model system is the rat SI cortex barrel field present at the cortical layer IV, where neural cell clusters, called barrels, represent localized regions of the skin surface. The forepaw barrel subfield (FBS), consisting of approximately 26 barrels, receives somatotopically organized …

The Long-Term Teratogenic Effect of Prenatal Alcohol Exposure on the Somatosensory and Motor Cortex of Rats
… in layer IV cortex into cell aggregates termed “barrels,” whereas humans have no such specific cortical structures per se. Each barrel in rodent cortex is spatially related to sensory receptors that innervate specific regions of the body surface, thus barrels produce a cortical somatic map. The …

The role of the kappa opioid receptor system in forebrain dependent associative learning
The opioid receptor system has been shown, through various lines of evidence, to be involved in pain processing, addiction, and learning and memory. It has been previously established that the mu opioid receptor (MOR) is intimately involved in the acquisition and consolidation of memories. While …
