Journal ArticleDOI
Fiber composition of the human corpus callosum.
TL;DR: Across subjects, the overall density of callosal fibers had no significant correlation withcallosal area and an increased callosal area indicated an increased total number of fibers crossing through, and this was only true for small diameter fibers, whose large majority is believed to interconnect association cortex.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrophysiological and morphological changes in striatal spiny neurons in R6/2 Huntington's disease transgenic mice.

TL;DR: Results indicate that passive and active membrane and synaptic properties of medium-sized spiny neurons are altered in the R6/2 transgenic, which will affect communication in the basal ganglia circuitry and suggest areas to target for pharmacotherapies to alleviate and reduce the symptoms of HD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Individual differences in brain asymmetries and fiber composition in the human corpus callosum
TL;DR: Findings suggest a sex-dependent, pathway-specific decrease in interhemispheric connectivity with increasing lateralization in language-gifted cortex.
Journal ArticleDOI
GABAergic basal forebrain neurons project to the neocortex: The localization of glutamic acid decarboxylase and choline acetyltransferase in feline corticopetal neurons
TL;DR: Whether GABAergic and cholinergic basal forebrain neurons project to the neocortex of adult cats was determined by injecting the retrograde connectivity marker wheat germ agglutinin lectin‐bound horseradish peroxidase into the neoc cortex of adult Cats.
Journal ArticleDOI
Localization of the protein kinase C phosphorylation/calmodulin-binding substrate RC3 in dendritic spines of neostriatal neurons.
TL;DR: It is proposed that RC3 acts as a "third messenger" substrate of protein kinase C-mediated molecular cascades during synaptic development and remodeling and accumulates postsynaptically in dendritic spines of neostriatal neurons.
