Development of γ-aminobutyric acid-, glycine-, and glutamate-immunopositive boutons on the rat genioglossal motoneurons
Detailed information about the development of excitatory and inhibitory synapses on the genioglossal (GG) motoneuron may help to understand the mechanism of fine control of GG motoneuron firing and the coordin...

Distribution of excitatory and inhibitory axon terminals on the rat hypoglossal motoneurons
Detailed information about the excitatory and inhibitory synapses on the hypoglossal motoneurons may help understand the neural mechanism for control of the hypoglossal motoneuron excitability and hence the pr...

Vesicular glutamate transporter 1 (VGLUT1)- and VGLUT2-immunopositive axon terminals on the rat jaw-closing and jaw-opening motoneurons
To provide information on the glutamatergic synapses on the trigeminal motoneurons, which may be important for understanding the mechanism of control of jaw movements, we investigated the distribution of vesic...

SSTEM Cell Image Segmentation Based on Top-Down Selective Attention Model
We propose an automatic method for segmenting neurons in the TEM cell images based on a top-down attention model, which is efficient to solve the discontinuity problems in TEM cell image caused by loss of sect...

GABA and glycine in synaptic microcircuits associated with physiologically characterized primary afferents of cat trigeminal principal nucleus
Previous studies suggest that sensory information conveyed through trigeminal afferents is more strongly controlled at the level of the first synapse by GABA-mediated presynaptic mechanisms in the trigeminal p...
