TLDR
The presence of input cells in the parasympathetic midbrain nuclei contacting frontally projecting cholinergic neurons suggest that the network regulating the inner eye muscles are additionally regulating cortical state via acetylcholine efflux.

Neuromodulation of Attention.

TL;DR: Current neuroscientific understanding of how attention affects single neurons and networks of neurons and how neuromodulation shapes these neuron and network properties and thereby enables the appropriate allocation of attention to relevant external or internal events is summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Generation of a whole-brain atlas for the cholinergic system and mesoscopic projectome analysis of basal forebrain cholinergic neurons.

TL;DR: The results suggest the existence of distinct subtypes of cholinergic neurons that serve different regulatory functions in the brain and illustrate the usefulness of complete reconstruction of neuronal distribution and axon projections at the mesoscopic level.
Journal ArticleDOI

Specific basal forebrain–cortical cholinergic circuits coordinate cognitive operations

TL;DR: This review discusses how a combination of multiple new approaches with more established techniques are being used to finally reveal how cholinergic neurons, together with other BF neurons, provide temporal structure for behavior, contribute to local cortical state regulation, and coordinate activity between different functionally related cortical circuits.

Innovative Therapy for Alzheimer's Disease-With Focus on Biodelivery of NGF.

TL;DR: The intent of this review is describing available experimental and clinical data related to AD therapy, priming to gain additional facts associated with the importance of NGF for AD treatment, and encapsulated cell biodelivery (ECB) as an efficient tool for NGF delivery.

The Rat Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates

TL;DR: This paper presents a meta-analyses of the determinants of earthquake-triggered landsliding in the Czech Republic over a period of 18 months in order to establish a probabilistic framework for estimating the intensity of the earthquake.

The organization of the projection from the cerebral cortex to the striatum in the rat

TL;DR: The detailed organization of the corticostriate projection has been investigated in the brain of the rat using the technique of retrograde transport of horseradish peroxidase following the placement of small, iontophoretic injections.

A century of trends in adult human height

James Bentham, +790 more

TL;DR: The height differential between the tallest and shortest populations was 19-20 cm a century ago, and has remained the same for women and increased for men a century later despite substantial changes in the ranking of countries.

Control of Sleep and Wakefulness

TL;DR: Genetic studies suggest that brain mechanisms controlling waking and NREM sleep are strongly conserved throughout evolution, underscoring their enormous importance for brain function.

Monosynaptic Restriction of Transsynaptic Tracing from Single, Genetically Targeted Neurons

TL;DR: A transsynaptic tracer that crosses only one synaptic step is presented, unambiguously identifying cells directly presynaptic to the starting population, and should enable a far more detailed understanding of neural connectivity than has previously been possible.
