- 1From: Nature Reviews Neuroscience. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedAuthor(s): Kevin S LaBar (corresponding author) [1]; Roberto Cabeza [1] Emotional memories constitute the core of our personal history. Philosophers and psychologists have long theorized about how emotion enhances or...
- 2From: Nature Reviews Neuroscience. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedAuthor(s): Sara N. Burke [1]; Carol A. Barnes (corresponding author) [1, 2, 3] Ageing is associated with a decline in cognitive function that can, in part, be explained by changes in neural plasticity or cellular...
- 3From: Nature Reviews Neuroscience. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedAuthor(s): William D. Richardson (corresponding author) [1]; Nicoletta Kessaris [1]; Nigel Pringle [1] The developmental origin of oligodendrocytes has been hotly debated for years. Some laboratories, including our...
- 4From: Nature Reviews Neuroscience. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedAuthor(s): Gabriel A. Silva [1] Nanodevices and nanomaterials can interact with biological systems at fundamental, molecular levels with a high degree of specificity. By taking advantage of this unique molecular...
- 5From: Nature Reviews Neuroscience. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedAuthor(s): N. Joan Abbott (corresponding author) [1]; Lars Rönnbäck [2]; Elisabeth Hansson [2] Neuroscience has traditionally focused on the neurons of the central and peripheral nervous systems, and, increasingly,...
- 6From: Nature Reviews Neuroscience. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedAuthor(s): Sarah Archibald A good sense of smell and olfactory memory are important to many animals for prey and predator recognition, and so are vital for survival. Through variable expression of a glutamate...
- 7From: Nature Reviews Neuroscience. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedCochlear hair cells respond with phenomenal speed and sensitivity to sound vibrations that cause submicron deflections of their hair bundle. Outer hair cells are not only detectors, but also generate force to augment...
- 8From: Nature Reviews Neuroscience. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedAuthor(s): Jane Qiu Engrailed 2 (En2), a homeodomain transcription factor, is expressed in a caudal-to-rostral gradient in the developing tectum. This is thought to be crucial for setting up the gradients of axon...
- 9From: Nature Reviews Neuroscience. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedAuthor(s): Sarah Archibald The social deficits associated with autism, which include difficulty communicating and understanding environmental cues, such as facial expression, have been extensively reported. However,...
- 10From: Nature Reviews Neuroscience. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedAuthor(s): Alison Rowan Stimulation of excitatory neurons triggers the movement of calcium into dendritic spines and the build up of second messengers in the spine head, which, in turn, activates regulatory...
- 11From: Nature Reviews Neuroscience. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedAuthor(s): Alison Rowan It is well accepted that retinoic acid (RA) is important for a range of processes during maturation of the nervous system, including early development of the eye. Sen and colleagues now show...
- 12From: Nature Reviews Neuroscience. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedAuthor(s): Jane Qiu Fear helps animals -- including humans -- to survive, as it allows them to avoid predators and dangerous situations. However, too much fear, or inability to control it, can be detrimental and...
- 13From: Nature Reviews Neuroscience. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedNeurological disorders IKK mediates ischemia-induced neuronal death. Herrmann, O. et al . Nature Med. 13 November 2005 (10.1038/nm1323) The I[kappa]B kinase complex IKK is a central component of the signalling...
- 14From: Nature Reviews Neuroscience. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedAuthor(s): Rebecca Craven Repeated exposure to drugs of abuse such as amphetamine, cocaine and nicotine can lead to long-lasting changes in the strength of synaptic transmission in mesocorticolimbic regions of the...
- 15From: Nature Reviews Neuroscience. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedAuthor(s): Jane Qiu Signalling through electrical synapses that are formed by gap junctions between neurons is important in the development of the mammalian central nervous system. Neuronal gap junctions are abundant...
- 16From: Nature Reviews Neuroscience. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedAuthor(s): Samantha Barton Nitric oxide (NO) production is implicated in both synaptic plasticity and neurodegeneration in the hippocampus. Unlike other chemical messengers in the brain, NO readily diffuses across...
- 17From: Nature Reviews Neuroscience. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedNeural stem cells are a self-renewing population that generates the neurons and glia of the developing brain. They can be isolated, proliferated, genetically manipulated and differentiated in vitro and reintroduced into...
- 18From: Nature Reviews Neuroscience. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedAuthor(s): Daniel McGowan A central role for [alpha]-synuclein in neurodegenerative conditions has long been apparent: mutations or triplication of the gene cause severe Parkinson's disease, and inclusion bodies...
- 19From: Nature Reviews Neuroscience. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThe start of the new year sees the launch of a fresh, new look for Nature Reviews Neuroscience . This accompanies the redesign of the online version that you might already have seen last month. All the regular elements...
- 20From: Nature Reviews Neuroscience. (Vol. 7, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedAuthor(s): Alison Rowan Maternal behaviour during development can have a powerful influence on stress levels of the offspring later in life as a result of lasting epigenetic modifications. According to work published...
