Mice use scent cues to detect social rank without physical confrontation. Disrupting chemosensory systems impairs rank ...

Phototactile' hand stimulation rapidly activates first the somatosensory then the motor cortex, broadly consistent with constraints suggested by the previously described circuit architecture of this ...

Scientists achieved “a milestone” by charting the activity and structure of 200,000 cells in a mouse brain and their 523 million connections. A neuron extends an axon to make contact with ...

Here, for the first time, a novel genetic mouse line that allows for the visualization ... in discrete glutamatergic and serotonergic neuronal populations in the somatosensory cortex, piriform cortex, ...

As a result, these advancements allow to successfully detect neural activity in the cerebral cortex that ... evoked by both somatosensory and olfactory stimuli in the same mouse, thereby enabling ...

In vivo 3P calcium imaging of spontaneous neuronal activity at different depths below pia of the somatosensory cortex of a CCK-GCaMP6s mouse (4-month-old) through the intact skull (110-μm ...

Schematic diagram of AAV injection into one side of somatosensory cortex with cranial window in adult mouse brain. EGFP expression was introduced under control of synapsin promoter. Spatial ...

(2013) studied a long-range excitatory projection from the motor cortex to the whisker somatosensory cortex ... activation can differentially modulate auditory processing in the mouse auditory cortex.

This indicates a special role of double-synapse spines and their inhibitory synapses in the regulation of synaptic transmission during both circadian and diurnal cycles in the mouse somatosensory ...

In mammals, tactile information is mapped topographically onto the contralateral side of the brain in the primary somatosensory cortex (S1). In this study, we describe Robo3 mouse mutants in which a ...

Using imaging and electrophysiology, we found that mouse primary somatosensory cortex neurons showed robust choice-related activity during a tactile detection task. Spike trains from primary ...
