The impact of the human thalamus on brain-wide information processing
The thalamus is a small, bilateral structure in the diencephalon that integrates signals from many areas of the CNS. This critical anatomical...

Identifying the midline thalamus in humans in vivo
The midline thalamus is critical for flexible cognition, memory, and stress regulation in humans and its dysfunction is associated with several...

The Thalamus in Perioperative Neurocognitive Disorders
Thalamus function and structure are known predictors of individual differences in the risk of age-related neurocognitive disorders (NCD), such as...

Processing of sensory, painful and vestibular stimuli in the thalamus
ObjectivesThe thalamus plays an important role in the mediation and integration of various stimuli (e.g., somatosensory, pain, and vestibular)....

Map** the primate thalamus: systematic approach to analyze the distribution of subcortical neuromodulatory afferents
Neuromodulatory afferents to thalamic nuclei are key for information transmission and thus play critical roles in sensory, motor, and limbic...

Causality methods to study the functional connectivity in brain networks: the basal ganglia – thalamus causal interactions
This study uses methods recently developed to study the complex evolution of atmospheric phenomena which have some similarities with the dynamics of...

Dual medial prefrontal cortex and hippocampus projecting neurons in the paraventricular nucleus of the thalamus
The paraventricular nucleus (PVT) of the midline thalamus is a critical higher-order cortico-thalamo-cortical integration site that plays a critical...

Spatial–temporal topography in neurogenesis of the macaque thalamus
Maternal injection of 3 H-thymidine ([ 3 H]dT) during gestation in non-human primates (NHPs) has been used to determine the time of neurogenesis for...

The Wake Promoting Role of the Mediodorsal Thalamic Nuclei in Rat
Mediodorsal thalamic nucleus (MD) is a higher order thalamic nucleus and plays an important role in memory, olfaction, cognitive functions and sleep...

Mechanisms of Functioning of the Connectome Including the Neocortex, Hippocampus, Basal Ganglia, Cerebellum, and Thalamus
Possible mechanisms of the interactions of neuron functioning in the connectome including topographically connected areas of the neocortex,...
-
Region-selective control of the thalamic reticular nucleus via cortical layer 5 pyramidal cells
Corticothalamic pathways, responsible for the top-down control of the thalamus, have a canonical organization such that every cortical region sends...

Characterizing functional modules in the human thalamus: coactivation-based parcellation and systems-level functional decoding
The human thalamus relays sensory signals to the cortex and facilitates brain-wide communication. The thalamus is also more directly involved in...

Does injury of the thalamocortical connection between the mediodorsal nucleus of the thalamus and the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex affect motor recovery after cerebral infarct?
We assessed the state of the thalamocortical connection between the mediodorsal nucleus (MD) and the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) in...

Neurotransmitter and receptor systems in the subthalamic nucleus
The Subthalamic Nucleus (STh) is a lens-shaped subcortical structure located ventrally to the thalamus, that despite being embryologically derived...

Nucleus Reuniens: Circuitry, Function, and Dysfunction
The nucleus reuniens (RE) of the ventral midline thalamus is intimately connected with forebrain structures involved in higher-order functions and... -
Molecular Profiling of VGluT1 AND VGluT2 Ventral Subiculum to Nucleus Accumbens Shell Projections
The nucleus accumbens shell is a critical node in reward circuitry, encoding environments associated with reward. Long-range inputs from the ventral...

On the Similarity of the Mechanisms of Processing Olfactory, Auditory, and Visual Information in the CNS: A Hypothesis
Abstract —A possible mechanism for processing odors in a neural network that includes the olfactory bulb, the piriform cortex, the olfactory tubercle,...

Top-down projections of the prefrontal cortex to the ventral tegmental area, laterodorsal tegmental nucleus, and median raphe nucleus
Anatomical and functional evidence suggests that the PFC is fairly unique among all cortical regions, as it not only receives input from, but also...

Excitatory neurons in the lateral parabrachial nucleus mediate the interruptive effect of inflammatory pain on a sustained attention task
BackgroundAttentional deficits are among the most common pain-induced cognitive disorders. Pain disrupts attention and may excessively occupy...

Convergence of forepaw somatosensory and motor cortical projections in the striatum, claustrum, thalamus, and pontine nuclei of cats
The basal ganglia and pontocerebellar systems regulate somesthetic-guided motor behaviors and receive prominent inputs from sensorimotor cortex. In...
