The neural basis of puberty and adolescence

TL;DR: The pubertal transition to adulthood involves both gonadal and behavioral maturation, and reproductive maturity is the product of developmentally timed, brain-driven and recurrent interactions between steroid hormones and the adolescent nervous system.

The social re-orientation of adolescence: a neuroscience perspective on the process and its relation to psychopathology.

TL;DR: A relationship between development of brain physiology and developmental changes in social behavior and dysregulation of the social information processing network in this critical period may contribute to the onset of mood and anxiety disorders during adolescence.

Physiology of Penile Erection and Pathophysiology of Erectile Dysfunction

TL;DR: The molecular and clinical under-standing of erectile function continues to gain ground at a particularly fast rate and the understanding of the nitric oxide pathway has aided not only in the molecular understand of the tumescence but also greatly in the therapy of erectILE dysfunction.

The functional anatomy of basal ganglia disorders.

TL;DR: A model in which specific types of basal ganglia disorders are associated with changes in the function of subpopulations of striatal projection neurons is proposed, which suggests that the activity of sub Populations of Striatal projections neurons is differentially regulated by striatal afferents and that different striatal projections may mediate different aspects of motor control.

Disinhibition as a basic process in the expression of striatal functions

TL;DR: It is reported that the basal ganglia contribute to the initiation of movement by arousing executive motor centres via a disinhibitory mechanism and it is proposed that thebasal ganglia output is used as a movement template specifying the motor elements to be engaged in directing movement in space.
