Phase Spectrum of the Visually Evoked EEG Response as a Measure of Latency.
… evoked response (VER) waveform is a measure of neural conduction time in diagnosing multiple sclerosis (Regan, 1979). Slowed conduction shown by abnormally increasedpeak latencies in different sensory evoked responses can also help locate tumors and other structural lesions of the nervous …

THE ROLE OF TRIGEMINAL ISL1 NEURONS IN FEEDING BEHAVIOUR
… patterns of mice. Additionally, the effects of neural transmission of inhibitory limbic neurons on ISL1MoV neurons revealed that these neurons depolarize in response to GABA. This thesis represents a pioneering study of a cell type specific investigation of the anatomical and functional …

Estudo dos potenciais evocados auditivos de curta latência em pacientes diabéticos do tipo 2 sem sintomas auditivos
… in detecting latent alterations of central neural transmission process. Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the central neuroconduction mechanism by BAEP (Brainstem auditory evoked potentials) and demonstrate that already exist changes in the function of auditory pathway in type …

EEG signal processing in brain-computer interface
It has been known for a long time that as neurons within the brain fire, some measurable electrical activities is produced. Electroencephalography (EEG) is one way of measuring and recording of the electrical signals produced by these electrical activities via some sensor arrays across the scalp. …

Molecular and Functional Characterization of Pyramidal Cell Types in the Frontal Cortex of Mouse Brain
… We then applied viral mediated silencing of neural transmission using viral tethered toxins that target voltage gated calcium channels (VGCCs) Cav2.1 and Cav2.2. We found that the Wfs1 cell type in the anterior cingulate cortex is necessary for the affective pain circuitry. Compared to …

The role of Ryanodine receptors in neuronal calcium signaling
<p>Calcium (Ca<sup>2+</sup>) is a universal second messenger controlling a wide variety of cellular reactions and adaptive responses. All the versatility of a Ca<sup>2+</sup> signaling requires that the concentration of Ca<sup>2+</sup> ions in the cytoplasm be highly regulated. Generation of …

Determining Properties of Synaptic Structure in a Neural Network through Spike Train Analysis
… each component separately. A biological neural network is one example of such a system. A multi-agent model of such a network is developed to study the relationships between a network's structure and its spike train output. Using this model, inferences are made about the synaptic …

The effects of the kappa agonist U-50,488 on morphine-induced place preference conditioning and Fos immunoreactivity in the preweanling and periadolescent rat
The effects of the kappa opioid agonist U-50,488 on morphine-induced condtioned place preference (CPP), locomotor activity and Fos immunoreactivity and assessed in 10-, 17- and 35-day old rats. It was predicted that kappa agonist treatment would block the unconditioned and conditioned behaviors …

Role of ryanodine receptors in neuronal calcium signalling and growth control
<p>The versatility of Ca<sup>2+</sup> as a messenger regulating a myriad of signalling events requires that the concentration of Ca<sup>2+</sup> ions in the cytoplasm be highly regulated. Capacitative Ca<sup>2+</sup> entry (CCE) or store-operated Ca<sup>2+</sup> (SOC) entry, whereby the depletion …
