TL;DR: A detailed neuronal model of auditory cortex, based on predictive coding, is proposed that accounts for the critical features of the mismatch negativity and validates the key hypothesis: the MMN results from active cortical prediction rather than passive synaptic habituation.
Abstract: The mismatch negativity (MMN) is thought to index the activation of specialized neural networks for active prediction and deviance detection. However, a detailed neuronal model of the neurobiological mechanisms underlying the MMN is still lacking, and its computational foundations remain debated. We propose here a detailed neuronal model of auditory cortex, based on predictive coding, that accounts for the critical features of MMN. The model is entirely composed of spiking excitatory and inhibitory neurons interconnected in a layered cortical architecture with distinct input, predictive, and prediction error units. A spike-timing dependent learning rule, relying upon NMDA receptor synaptic transmission, allows the network to adjust its internal predictions and use a memory of the recent past inputs to anticipate on future stimuli based on transition statistics. We demonstrate that this simple architecture can account for the major empirical properties of the MMN. These include a frequency-dependent response to rare deviants, a response to unexpected repeats in alternating sequences (ABABAA…), a lack of consideration of the global sequence context, a response to sound omission, and a sensitivity of the MMN to NMDA receptor antagonists. Novel predictions are presented, and a new magnetoencephalography experiment in healthy human subjects is presented that validates our key hypothesis: the MMN results from active cortical prediction rather than passive synaptic habituation.

TL;DR: The destruction of ascending noradreniergic pathways by bilateral microinjections of 6-hydroxydopamnine made laterally to the pedunculus cerebellaris superior completely abolished the in vitro synthesis of [3H]norepinephrine from L-tyrosine in slices and in synaptosomes of the rat cortex, providing the first biochemical support for the existence of dopaminergic terminals independent of Noradrenergic terminals in theRat cortex.
Abstract: The destruction of ascending noradreniergic pathways by bilateral microinjections of 6-hydroxydopamnine made laterally to the pedunculus cerebellaris superior completely abolished the in vitro synthesis of [(3)H]norepinephrine from L-[(3)H]tyrosine in slices and in synaptosomes of the rat cortex. However, normal [(3)H]dopamine synthesis could still be observed in both cortical preparations from animals with lesions. These results provide the first biochemical support for the existence of dopaminergic terminals independent of noradrenergic terminals in the rat cortex.

TL;DR: In this article, the population of 47 compact binary mergers detected with a false-alarm rate of 0.614 were dynamically assembled, and the authors found that the BBH rate likely increases with redshift, but not faster than the star formation rate.
Abstract: We report on the population of 47 compact binary mergers detected with a false-alarm rate of 0.01 are dynamically assembled. Third, we estimate merger rates, finding RBBH = 23.9-+8.614.3 Gpc-3 yr-1 for BBHs and RBNS = 320-+240490 Gpc-3 yr-1 for binary neutron stars. We find that the BBH rate likely increases with redshift (85% credibility) but not faster than the star formation rate (86% credibility). Additionally, we examine recent exceptional events in the context of our population models, finding that the asymmetric masses of GW190412 and the high component masses of GW190521 are consistent with our models, but the low secondary mass of GW190814 makes it an outlier.

TL;DR: The postsynaptic hippocampal [3H]8‐OH‐DPAT binding sites are probably identical to the 5‐HT1A, subsites, but the relationship between the presynaptic binding sites and the Presynaptic autoreceptors controlling 5‐ HT release deserves further investigation.
Abstract: The specific binding of [3H]8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin ([ 3H]8-OH-DPAT) to 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)-related sites was investigated in several regions of the rat brain. Marked differences were observed in the characteristics of binding to membranes from hippocampus, striatum, and cerebral cortex. Hippocampal sites exhibited the highest affinity (KD approximately 2 nM) followed by the cerebral cortex (KD approximately 6 nM) and the striatum (KD approximately 10 nM). Ascorbic acid inhibited specific [3H]8-OH-DPAT binding in all three regions but millimolar concentrations of Ca2+, Mg2+, and Mn2+ enhanced specific binding to hippocampal membranes, whereas only Mn2+ increased it in the cerebral cortex and all three cations inhibited specific binding to striatal membranes. Guanine nucleotides (0.1 mM GDP, GTP) inhibited binding to hippocampal and cortical membranes only. As intracerebral 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine markedly decreased [3H]8-OH-DPAT binding sites in the striatum, but not in the hippocampus, the striatal sites appear to be on serotoninergic afferent fibers. In contrast, in the hippocampus the sites appear to be on postsynaptic 5-HT target cells, as local injection of kainic acid decreased their density. Both types of sites appear to be present in the cerebral cortex. The postsynaptic hippocampal [3H]8-OH-DPAT binding sites are probably identical to the 5-HT1A subsites, but the relationship between the presynaptic binding sites and the presynaptic autoreceptors controlling 5-HT release deserves further investigation.

TL;DR: A dense population of hematogenous cells, marked by the surface expression of the CD34 glycoprotein, associated with the ventral endothelium of the aorta in the 5-week human embryo is identified, extending to the human species the growing evidence that intraembryonic hematopoietic cells developing independently of the yolk sac might be the real stem of the whole blood system.
