Acetylcholine signaling in the medial prefrontal cortex mediates the ability to learn an active avoidance response following learned helplessness training

Posted by klaurent Yale

Kavli Affiliate: Marina Picciotto | Authors: Zuhair I Abdulla, Yann S Mineur, Richard B Crouse, Ian M Etherington, Hanna Yousuf, Jessica J Na and Marina R Picciotto | Summary: Increased brain levels of acetylcholine (ACh) are observed in subsets of patients with depression and increasing ACh levels chronically can precipitate stress-related behaviors in humans and […]

Perisaccadic and Attentional Remapping of Receptive Fields in Lateral Intraparietal Area and Frontal Eye Fields

Posted by klaurent Columbia

Kavli Affiliate: Michael Goldberg | Authors: Xiao Wang, Cong Zhang, Lin Yang, Min Jin, Michael E Goldberg, Mingsha Zhang and Ning Qian | Summary: The nature and function of perisaccadic receptive-field (RF) remapping have been controversial. We used a delayed saccade task to reduce previous confounds and examined the remapping time course in areas LIP […]

Predicting Long and Short Duration Beta Bursts from Subthalamic Nucleus Local Field Potential Activity in Parkinson’s Disease

Posted by klaurent UCSF

Kavli Affiliate: Philip Starr | Authors: Bahman Abdi-Sargezeh, Sepehr Shirani, Abhinav Sharma, Philip Starr, Simon Little and Ashwini Oswal | Summary: Neural activities within the beta frequency range (13-30 Hz) are not stationary, but occur in transient packets known as beta bursts. Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterized by the occurrence of beta bursts of increased […]

Placebo treatment affects brain systems related to affective and cognitive processes, but not nociceptive pain

Posted by klaurent Hopkins

Kavli Affiliate: Martin Lindquist | Authors: Rotem Botvinik-Nezer, Bogdan Petre, Marta Ceko, Martin A. Lindquist, Naomi P. Friedman and Tor D. Wager | Summary: Placebo analgesia is a replicable and well-studied phenomenon, yet it remains unclear to what degree it includes modulation of nociceptive processes. Some studies find effects consistent with nociceptive effects, but meta-analyses […]
