Human Neural Plasticity
نویسنده
چکیده
Neuroscience research in slice preparations and animal models within the last decade has shown that neural plasticity is a ubiquitous mechanism by which the brain represents and encodes its dynamic sensory world. This workshop considered how dynamic sensory representations are modified by experience, new methods for imaging those representations in human subjects, and applications of human neural plasticity to human disability.

The Role of Adrenergic Receptors on Neural Excitability and Synaptic Plasticity: A Narrative Review
Adrenergic receptors have an important role in neural excitability and synaptic plasticity. Despite a lot of studies on these receptors, their exact role in brain disorders accompanied with hyperexcitability has not been determined. There are also controversies on their role in synaptic plasticity. In this review article, the important studies done in this regard have been reviewed to achieve a...
متن کاملHigh neuronal/astroglial differentiation plasticity of adult rat hippocampal neural stem/progenitor cells in response to the effects of embryonic and adult cerebrospinal fluids
Hippocampal neural stem/progenitor cells (hipp-NS/PCs) of the adult mammalian brain are important sources of neuronal and gial cell production. In this study, the main goal is to investigate the plasticity of these cells in neuronal/astroglial differentiations. To this end, the differentiation of the hipp-NS/PCs isolated from 3-month-old Wistar rats was investigated in response to the embryonic...

Abstaract Background and Aim: Tinnitus is a specific auditory sensitivity in which the patient hears nonexistent sounds. From neurological point of view, in majority of them increment in neural activity has been proposed characterized by increase in spontaneous firing rate in central auditory system. According to a hypothesis, tinnitus is a result of abnormal synaptic plasticity and reduced inh...
متن کاملSpike timing dependent plasticity: mechanisms, significance, and controversies
Long-term modification of synaptic strength is one of the basic mechanisms of memory formation and activity-dependent refinement of neural circuits. This idea was purposed by Hebb to provide a basis for the formation of a cell assembly. Repetitive correlated activity of pre-synaptic and post-synaptic neurons can induce long-lasting synaptic strength modification, the direction and extent of whi...
