Quest for the basic plan of nervous system circuitry.
The basic plan of nervous system organization has been investigated since classical antiquity. The first model centered on pneumas pumped from sensory nerves through the ventricular system and out motor nerves to muscles. It was popular well into the 17th century and diverted attention from the organization of brain parenchyma itself. Willis focused on gray matter production and white matter co...
متن کاملThe Human Nervous System: A Framework for Teaching and the Teaching Brain
The teaching brain is a new concept that mirrors the complex, dynamic, and context-dependent nature of the learning brain. In this article, I use the structure of the human nervous system and its sensing, processing, and responding components as a framework for a reconceptualized teaching system. This teaching system is capable of responses on an instinctual level (e.g., spinal cord teaching) a...
متن کاملHYPERVITAMINOSIS A-INDUCED CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM DEFECTS
In this investigation the effects of excess vitamin A administration during the early embryonic period were studied. Intramuscular injection of a single dose of 15000,20000 or 25000 IU/kg vitamin A to pregnant Balb/c strain mice on either day 7,8,9 or 10 of gestation (vaginal plug= day 0 of gestation) produced major malformations in the central nervous system (CNS) including exencephaly, h...
متن کاملFormalin Perfusion for Correlative Light- and Electron-microscopical Studies of the Nervous System
The formalin perfusion technique of Pease has been shown to be a satisfactory fixation method for both light and electron microscopy of the nervous system of rat and goldfish, so allowing correlative studies to be made on tissue from the same region of one brain. Immediate post-osmication is not necessary for good ultrastructural preservation and even if it is delayed for 1 week, neuronal struc...
متن کاملADENOSINE IN THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
Besides being a metabolite of nucleotides like ATP, adenosine is a mediator of neuronal function in the central nervous system. Its actions are mediated by at least three extracellular receptors. In this review different aspects of adenosine such as biosynthesis, release, inactivation and its receptors are discussed. It also covers pre- and postsynaptic effects as well as postreceptor mecha...
