Parallel preoptic pathways for thermoregulation.

21 Sep 2009 Sympathetic premotor neurons in the rostral medullary raphe (RMR) regulate heat conservation by tail artery vasoconstriction and brown adipose tissue thermogenesis. These neurons are a critical relay in the pathway that increases body temperature. ... Read more...

Differential expression of TrkB isoforms switches climbing fiber-Purkinje cell synaptogenesis to selective synapse elimination.

30 Aug 2009 Correct neural function depends on precisely organized connectivity, which is refined from broader projections through synaptic/collateral elimination. In the rat, olivocerebellar topography is refined by regression of multiple climbing fiber (CF) ... Read more...

Volumetric effects of motor cortex injury on recovery of dexterous movements.

8 Aug 2009 Due to the heterogeneous nature of most brain injuries, the contributions of gray and white matter involvement to motor deficits and recovery potential remain obscure. We tested the hypothesis that duration of hand motor impairment and recovery of ... Read more...
