Neuronal responses of the parietal associative cortex (PAC) field 7 to the electrical stimulation of laterodorsal (LD) and posterolateral (PL) thalamic nuclei were studied in calypsol-narcotized cats. A correlation between depth, duration of the background activity inhibition and latent periods was determined for distribution of neurons responding to stimulation of associative nuclei by impulses. It is shown that there are functional relations between LD and field 7 of PAC. Common and specific peculiarities of neuronal responses of the associative cortex were found when a volley of impulses came from LD- and PA-nuclei of the thalamus.

Purpose: Behavioral and neurobiological abnormalities in addiction and obesity have led to the theory of food addiction in obesity (FAOB) and brain-behavior association studies. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) studies and treats various brain disorders. Cortico-cortical paired associative stimulation TMS protocol, in which left lateral prefrontal cortex (LPFC) stimulation follows right LPFC stimulation, can reduce emotional reactivity to visual triggers and modulate prefrontal asymmetry in healthy adults.

Neuronal dynamics of cerebellum and medial prefrontal cortex in adaptive motor timing.

Nat Commun

January 2025

Department of Neuroscience, Erasmus MC, Westzeedijk 353, 3015 AA, Rotterdam, the Netherlands.

Precise temporal control of sensorimotor coordination and adaptation is a fundamental basis of animal behavior. How different brain regions are involved in regulating the flexible temporal adaptation remains elusive. Here, we investigated the neuronal dynamics of the cerebellar interposed nucleus (IpN) and the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) neurons during temporal adaptation between delay eyeblink conditioning (DEC) and trace eyeblink conditioning (TEC).

Neuroinflammatory Loop in Schizophrenia, Is There a Relationship with Symptoms or Cognition Decline?

Int J Mol Sci

January 2025

Departamento de Ciencias Biológicas y Químicas, Facultad De Medicina y Ciencia, Universidad San Sebastián, Sede Tres Pascualas Lientur 1457, Concepción 4080871, Chile.

Schizophrenia (SZ), a complex psychiatric disorder of neurodevelopment, is characterised by a range of symptoms, including hallucinations, delusions, social isolation and cognitive deterioration. One of the hypotheses that underlie SZ is related to inflammatory events which could be partly responsible for symptoms. However, it is unknown how inflammatory molecules can contribute to cognitive decline in SZ.

Multi-scale Analysis Reveals Hippocampal Subfield Vulnerabilities to Chronic Cortisol Overexposure: Evidence from Cushing's Disease.

Biol Psychiatry Cogn Neurosci Neuroimaging

Department of Neurosurgery, The First Medical Centre of Chinese PLA General Hospital, Beijing, China; Neurosurgery Institute, Chinese PLA General Hospital, Beijing, PR China. Electronic address:

Background: Chronic cortisol overexposure plays a significant role in the development of neuropathological changes associated with neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders. The hippocampus, the primary target of cortisol, may exhibit characteristic regional responses due to its internal heterogeneity. This study explores structural and functional alterations of hippocampal subfields in Cushing's disease (CD), an endogenous model of chronic cortisol overexposure.

Background: White matter hyperintensities (WMH) are prominent neuroimaging markers of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) linked to cognitive decline. Nevertheless, the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying WMH remain unclear.

Objective: This study aimed to assess the structural decoupling index (SDI) as a novel metric for quantifying the brain's hierarchical organization associated with WMH in cognitively normal older adults

Methods: We analyzed data from 112 cognitively normal individuals with varying WMH burdens (43 high WMH burden and 69 low WMH burden).
