Altered parabrachial nucleus nociceptive processing may underlie central pain in Parkinson’s disease
The presence of central neuropathic pain in Parkinson’s disease suggests that the brain circuits that allow us to process pain could be dysfunctional...

Plastic Events of the Vestibular Nucleus: the Initiation of Central Vestibular Compensation
Vestibular compensation is a physiological response of the vestibular organs within the inner ear. This adaptation manifests during consistent...

Dopaminergic innervation at the central nucleus of the amygdala reveals distinct topographically segregated regions
The central nucleus of the amygdala (CeA) is involved in the expression of fear and anxiety disorders. Anatomically, it is divided into medial (CeM),...

Alteration of serotonin release response in the central nucleus of the amygdala to noxious and non-noxious mechanical stimulation in a neuropathic pain model rat
Previously, we found that serotonin (5-HT) release in the central nucleus of the amygdala (CeA) of anesthetized rats decreases in response to...

The ultrastructure of macaque mesencephalic trigeminal nucleus neurons
Primary afferents originating from the mesencephalic trigeminal nucleus provide the main source of proprioceptive information guiding mastication,...

The central nucleus of the amygdala and the construction of defensive modes across the threat-imminence continuum
In nature, animals display defensive behaviors that reflect the spatiotemporal distance of threats. Laboratory-based paradigms that elicit specific...

Effects of neonatal rearing by different types of foster mother on the distribution of corticotropin-releasing factor neurons in the central amygdaloid nucleus in rats
The mother–child relationship of newborns plays an essential role in the development of the central nervous system, and an inadequate relationship,...

Leveling up: a long-range olivary projection to the medial geniculate without collaterals to the central nucleus of the inferior colliculus in rats
The medial nucleus of the trapezoid body (MNTB) is one of the monaural cell groups situated within the superior olivary complex (SOC), a...

Decellularized nucleus pulposus matrix/chitosan hybrid hydrogel combined with nucleus pulposus stem cells and GDF5-loaded microspheres for intervertebral disc degeneration prevention
BackgroundIntervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is considered an important pathological basis for spinal degenerative diseases. Tissue engineering...

Genetic Architecture and Functional Implications of the CSF-Contacting Nucleus
We previously identified a unique nucleus, the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-contacting nucleus. This study aims to understand its gene architecture and...

Manual segmentation of the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus and the dorsal and ventral bed nucleus of stria terminalis using multimodal 7 Tesla structural MRI: probabilistic atlases for a stress-control triad
The paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN) is uniquely capable of proximal control over autonomic and neuroendocrine stress responses, and...

The regulation of the pedunculopontine tegmental nucleus in sleep–wake states
The pedunculopontine tegmental nucleus (PPTg) plays a vital role in sleep/wake states. There are three main kinds of heterogeneous neurons involved:...
