The commissural component of the stria terminalis (S. T.) was studied in Equi-Thesin (92.7 mg/kg) anesthetized rats after their exposure in the caudothalamic surface of both hemispheres. Two types of connection between right and left S. T. across the anterior commissure are described: A "direct" connection set up by fibres that run through the S. T. and join the contralateral S. T., and another "indirect" component, formed by cell axons that receive excitatory synaptic contacts from fibres running in the S. T.

Background: Understanding the conduction axis location aids in avoiding iatrogenic damage and guiding targeted heart rhythm therapy.
Objective: Cardiac structures visible with clinical imaging have been demonstrated to correlate with variability in the conduction system course. We aimed to standardize and assess the reproducibility of predicting the location of the atrioventricular conduction axis by cardiac computed tomography.

The establishment of communication circuits requires bringing sources and targets into contact, either directly or indirectly. The Central Nervous System (CNS)'s ability to interpret the environment and generate precise responses depends on the functional efficiency of its neural network, which in turn relies on the 3D spatial organization of its constituents, mainly neurons and glia. Throughout evolution, sensory integration and motor response coordination became linked with the merging of the brain and nerve cord (NC) in the urbilaterian CNS.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess how 4D analysis using multiphase cardiac CT can help describe the aortic annulus in patients with bicuspid aortic valves, comparing it to those with normal tricuspid valves.
- The methodology involved analyzing cardiac CT scans of 15 BAV patients and 15 TAV patients, measuring various 3D characteristics of the aortic annulus across different phases of the heart's cycle.
- Results showed that the aortic annulus in BAV patients was significantly larger in multiple dimensions compared to TAV patients and demonstrated that 3D shape analysis can effectively differentiate between various types of BAV, revealing important anatomical details like the position of nonfunctional commissures.

Perioral rejuvenation is a critical component in the comprehensive approach to the aging face. The perioral region-comprising the lips, philtrum, and areas surrounding the oral commissures-plays a significant role in an individual's perceived age, attractiveness, and emotional expressions. However, the perioral region is often the "forgotten area" and has the potential to undermine the success of otherwise outstanding rejuvenation surgeries.

The axon guidance cue netrin-1 signals through its receptor DCC (deleted in colorectal cancer) to attract commissural axons to the midline. Variants in DCC are frequently associated with congenital mirror movements (CMMs). A CMM-associated variant in the cytoplasmic tail of DCC is located in a conserved motif predicted to bind to a regulator of actin dynamics called the WAVE (Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein-family verprolin homologous protein) regulatory complex (WRC).
