Journal ArticleDOI
A novel single-cell staining procedure performed in vivo under electrophysiological control: morpho-functional features of juxtacellularly labeled thalamic cells and other central neurons with biocytin or Neurobiotin
TL;DR: The juxtacellular procedure represents an ideal directed single-cell labeling tool for determination of functional properties, for subsequent identification, for delineation of overall neuronal architecture and for tracing neuronal pathways, provided care is taken to avoid the possible drawbacks and pitfalls.
Journal ArticleDOI
The thalamic reticular nucleus: structure, function and concept.
TL;DR: The present critical survey emphasizes the TRN's complexity, and provides arguments combining anatomy, physiology and cognitive psychology, to discuss some recent cellular and network findings concerning this diencephalic GABAergic structure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Corticothalamic projections from the cortical barrel field to the somatosensory thalamus in rats: a single-fibre study using biocytin as an anterograde tracer.
TL;DR: The possibility that a similar cellular specificity and a similar organizational plan may characterize corticothalamic relationships in other sensory systems is considered and is discussed in the light of previous studies bearing on the topological organization and function of cortic hypothalamic projections to VPm and Pom in rats.
Journal ArticleDOI
N-Methyl d-Aspartate Receptor Antagonists Ketamine and MK-801 Induce Wake-Related Aberrant γ Oscillations in the Rat Neocortex
TL;DR: The present findings suggest that abnormal increased synchronization in ongoing gamma oscillations in cortical-related networks might cause dysfunctions of conscious integration, as seen in patients with schizophrenia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Corticothalamic projections from layer V cells in rat are collaterals of long-range corticofugal axons.
TL;DR: The thalamic projections of layer V cells were mapped at a single cell level following small microiontophoretic injections of biocytin performed in the motor, somatosensory and visual cortices in rats and revealed that they are all collaterals of long-range corticofugal axons.
