Where Does it Stem From? - Functional Neuroimaging of Monoaminergic Brainstem Nuclei in Altered States of Consciousness: Translational, Diagnostic and Therapeutic Implications
… in lesion studies, which have identified that brainstem neurotransmitter nuclei – among them in particular the monoaminergic source nuclei and transmitter systems – are consistently implicated in both pharmacological and pathological perturbations of wakefulness/consciousness. Thus, the …

Investigating canine degenerative myelopathy as a disease model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis for histopathological evidence of dysphagia
… of dysphagia in canine DM. We investigated the brainstem nuclei involved in swallowing in DM and control dogs. Samples were procured from the College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Missouri. Subtle evidence of neurodegeneration within each of the brainstem nuclei involved in swallowing …

Anatomical and physiological properties of the superior paraolivary nucleus in the rat
… the superior olivary complex, a constellation of brainstem nuclei involved in auditory processing. The major inputs to the SPON arise from the contralateral ear and SPON axons target primarily the ipsilateral inferior colliculus. However, little is known regarding the neurochemical phenotypes …

Image Processing Considerations for High Resolution Diffusion Tensor Imaging of the Human Brainstem
… of white matter in the brain. The human brainstem has many white matter tracts that connect small nuclei in the brainstem to other regions of the brain. High resolution DTI of the brainstem may be helpful in understanding diseases that implicate brainstem nuclei. There are technical …

The role of the catecholaminergic projections to the forebrain in the modulation of autonomic responses to stress
… Although many of these regions project to brainstem nuclei involved in the control of autonomic output, the functions of the catecholamines in the modulation of responses to stressful stimuli mediated by the ANS are not known. To resolve this issue, a series of experiments was carried out …

From Gut to Brain - αSynuclein pathology spreading in a new transgenic mouse model
… and society in general. Aggregation of αSynuclein (αSyn) and presence of characteristic motor symptoms are cardinal features of PD. The onset of PD motor symptoms is however preceded by non-motor symptoms that can start decades earlier. These may be associated with initiation of αSyn …
