Baroreceptor afferents modulate brain excitation and influence susceptibility to toxic effects of hyperbaric oxygen.
(Journal of applied physiology (Bethesda, Md. : 1985), 2014-09)Unexplained adjustments in baroreflex sensitivity occur in conjunction with exposures to potentially toxic levels of hyperbaric oxygen. To investigate this, we monitored central nervous system, autonomic and cardiovascular ... -
Composition and topographic organization of signals sent from the frontal eye field to the superior colliculus.
(J Neurophysiol, 2000-04)The frontal eye field (FEF) and superior colliculus (SC) contribute to saccadic eye movement generation, and much of the FEF's oculomotor influence may be mediated through the SC. The present study examined the composition ... -
Corollary discharge across the animal kingdom.
(Nat Rev Neurosci, 2008-08)Our movements can hinder our ability to sense the world. Movements can induce sensory input (for example, when you hit something) that is indistinguishable from the input that is caused by external agents (for example, when ... -
Frontal eye field sends delay activity related to movement, memory, and vision to the superior colliculus.
(J Neurophysiol, 2001-04)Many neurons within prefrontal cortex exhibit a tonic discharge between visual stimulation and motor response. This delay activity may contribute to movement, memory, and vision. We studied delay activity sent from the frontal ... -
Monoclonal antibodies reveal receptor specificity among G-protein-coupled receptor kinases.
(Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 1996-07-23)Guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory protein (G protein)-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) constitute a family of serine/threonine kinases that play a major role in the agonist-induced phosphorylation and desensitization ... -
The dusp1 immediate early gene is regulated by natural stimuli predominantly in sensory input neurons.
(J Comp Neurol, 2010-07-15)Many immediate early genes (IEGs) have activity-dependent induction in a subset of brain subdivisions or neuron types. However, none have been reported yet with regulation specific to thalamic-recipient sensory neurons of ...
