To Bet, or Not to Bet: That Is the Question of SEF Spikes
نویسندگان
چکیده
The ability of animals to monitor their own cognitive processes is called metacognition. In this issue of Neuron, Middlebrooks and Sommer (2012) show that single-unit activity of SEF neurons exhibit a metacognitive signal while monkeys perform a postdecision wagering task.

بررسی بیان ژن های T-bet و Gata-3در بیماران مبتلا به آسم آلرژیک
Background and purpose: Allergic asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease identified by high response to allergens and excessive air ways edema. T-bet and GATA-3 are two transcriptional factors that differentiate Th1 and Th2 from Tnaive. In this study, we examined the expression levels of these two factors in patients with allergic asthma incomparison with healthy controls. Material and meth...
متن کاملDifferent Expressions of Specific Transcription Factors of Th1 (T-bet) and Th2 cells (GATA-3) by Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells From Patients With Multiple Sclerosis
Introduction: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disorder caused by self-reactive Th1 lymphocytes, while Th2 cells may confer protection. The Th1 and Th2 cell differentiation are regulated by specific transcription factors, especially T-bet and GATA-3, respectively. This investigation aimed to measure the T-bet and GATA-3 expression by Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) obtained...

Objective(s): The aim of the present study was to evaluate antioxidant and methyl donor effects of betaine in cerebellum following levodopa and benserazide administration in rats. Materials and Methods: Sprague-Dawley male rats were treated with levodopa (LD), betaine (Bet), levodopa plus betaine (LD/Bet), levodopa plus benserazide (LD/Ben), levodopa plus betaine-benserazide (LD/Bet-Ben), and t...
متن کاملبررسی بیان ژن های T-bet و GATA-3 در کودکان مبتلا به آسم آلرژیک در مقایسه با گروه شاهد
Background and purpose: Allergic asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder with increased inflammation and bronchial over react to stimulants. Th1 and Th2 cells are the main cells involved in the pathophysiology of asthma. The function of these cells is under the influence of T-bet and GATA3 transcription factors. This study aimed to investigate the impairment of immune responses in patients wi...
متن کاملExpression of T-bet by CD4 T cells is essential for resistance to Salmonella infection.
Despite the recognized role of the T-bet transcription factor in the differentiation of Th1 cells, T-bet-deficient mice can develop small numbers of IFN-gamma-producing CD4 T cells. Although these are not sufficient to allow normal handling of some pathogens, T-bet-deficient mice do resolve infection with the intracellular pathogen Listeria monocytogenes. In contrast, we report that expression ...
