Developmental origin and identity of song system neurons born during vocal learning in songbirds.
8 May 2007 
New neurons are added to the forebrain song control regions high vocal center (HVC) and Area X of juvenile songbirds but the identity and site of origin of these cells have not been fully characterized. We used oncoretroviral vectors to genetically ...

HVC neural sleep activity increases with development and parallels nightly changes in song behavior.
9 Apr 2007 Sleep abnormalities are coexpressed with human communication disorders. Recent data from the birdsong system, the best model for human speech, indicate that sleep has a critical role in vocal learning. To understand the neural mechanisms that ...

HVC interneurons are not renewed in adult male zebra finches.
2 Apr 2007 Adult neurogenesis is a widespread phenomenon in many species, from invertebrates to humans. In songbirds, the telencephalic region, high vocal center (HVC), continuously integrates new neurons in adulthood. This nucleus consists of a heterogenous ...

Singing-related activity of identified HVC neurons in the zebra finch.
18 Dec 2006 High vocal center (HVC) is part of the premotor pathway necessary for song production and is also a primary source of input to the anterior forebrain pathway (AFP), a basal ganglia-related circuit essential for vocal learning. We have examined the ...

Developmental modulation of the temporal relationship between brain and behavior.
30 Oct 2006 Humans and songbirds shape learned vocalizations during a sensorimotor sensitive period or "babbling" phase. The brain mechanisms that underlie the shaping of vocalizations by sensory feedback are not known. We examined song behavior and brain ...

Sleep-related spike bursts in HVC are driven by the nucleus interface of the nidopallium.
25 Sep 2006 The function and the origin of replay of motor activity during sleep are currently unknown. Spontaneous activity patterns in the nucleus robustus of the arcopallium (RA) and in HVC (high vocal center) of the sleeping songbird resemble premotor ...

Activities of 3beta-HSD and aromatase in slices of developing and adult zebra finch brain.
19 Aug 2006 Sex steroids influence the development and function of the songbird brain. Developmentally, the neural circuitry underlying song undergoes masculine differentiation under the influence of estradiol. In adults, estradiol stimulates song behavior and ...

25 Jun 2006 Substance P (SP) and methionine-enkephalin (ENK) have been reported to appear in song control nuclei of oscine species. However, it remains unknown whether or not SP and ENK location in song control nuclei is correlated with song behavior. To ...

Acetylcholinesterase in central vocal control nuclei of the zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata).
30 May 2004 The distribution of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in the central vocal control nuclei of the zebra finch was studied using enzyme histochemistry. AChE fibres and cells are intensely labelled in the forebrain nucleus area X, strongly labelled in high ...
