Novel Method for Neuronal Nanosurgical Connection
Neuronal injury may cause an irreversible damage to cellular, organ and organism function. While preventing neural injury is ideal, it is not always possible. There are multiple etiologies for neuronal injury including trauma, infection, inflammation, immune mediated disorders, toxins and hereditary conditions. We describe a novel laser application, utilizing femtosecond laser pulses, in order ...
متن کاملNeuronal circuits and evolution.
We agree with Dumont and Robertson (1) that the design ofnervous systems is not necessarily optimal. That teleology has no place in the consideration of biological design is at the very heart of modern evolutionary theory. However, we take exception to several aspects of their article. (i) Their premise that the study ofsimple circuits and behaviors has been slow to lead to any fundamental prin...
متن کاملCoordination of fast and slow rhythmic neuronal circuits.
Interactions among rhythmically active neuronal circuits that oscillate at different frequencies are important for generating complex behaviors, yet little is known about the underlying cellular mechanisms. We addressed this issue in the crab stomatogastric ganglion (STG), which contains two distinct but interacting circuits. These circuits generate the gastric mill rhythm (cycle period, approx...
متن کاملMANF Is Essential for Neurite Extension and Neuronal Migration in the Developing Cortex
Mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor (MANF) is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) resident protein with neuroprotective effects. Previous studies have shown that MANF expression is altered in the developing rodent cortex in a spatiotemporal manner. However, the role of MANF in mammalian neurogenesis is not known. The aim of this study was to determine the role of MANF in neural stem c...
متن کاملNeuronal Nogo-A regulates neurite fasciculation, branching and extension in the developing nervous system.
Wiring of the nervous system is a multi-step process involving complex interactions of the growing fibre with its tissue environment and with neighbouring fibres. Nogo-A is a membrane protein enriched in the adult central nervous system (CNS) myelin, where it restricts the capacity of axons to grow and regenerate after injury. During development, Nogo-A is also expressed by neurons but its func...
