Article Synopsis
- The brain's ability to predict future sensory inputs and signal prediction errors is crucial, and this study focuses on how this occurs in the retina.
- Researchers discovered that depressing inhibitory synapses affects the timing of responses to stimuli that are omitted during periodic stimulation.
- Their model suggests that a constant response latency to an omitted stimulus relies on the presence of enough stimulation flashes, highlighting the importance of these synapses in generating accurate predictive responses in the retina and possibly other brain regions.
Neuroblastoma (NB) is a childhood cancer arising from sympatho-adrenal neural crest cells. Disseminated forms have high frequency of multiple tumoral foci whose etiology remains unknown; NB embryonic origin limits investigations in patients and current models. We developed an avian embryonic model driving human NB tumorigenesis in tissues homologous to patients.
