Artificial Synaptic Rewiring Demonstrates that Distinct Neural Circuit Configurations Underlie Homologous Behaviors.
Behavioral homology is often assumed to involve similarity in underlying neuronal mechanisms. Here, we provide a counterexample where homologous behaviors are produced by neurons with different synaptic connectivity. The nudibranch molluscs Melibe leonina and Dendronotus iris exhibit homologous swimming behaviors, consisting of alternating left and right body flexions. The swim central pattern ...
متن کاملHidden synaptic differences in a neural circuit underlie differential behavioral susceptibility to a neural injury
Individuals vary in their responses to stroke and trauma, hampering predictions of outcomes. One reason might be that neural circuits contain hidden variability that becomes relevant only when those individuals are challenged by injury. We found that in the mollusc, Tritonia diomedea, subtle differences between animals within the neural circuit underlying swimming behavior had no behavioral rel...
متن کاملDistinct behaviors of neural stem and progenitor cells underlie cortical neurogenesis.
Neocortical precursor cells undergo symmetric and asymmetric divisions while producing large numbers of diverse cortical cell types. In Drosophila, cleavage plane orientation dictates the inheritance of fate-determinants and the symmetry of newborn daughter cells during neuroblast cell divisions. One model for predicting daughter cell fate in the mammalian neocortex is also based on cleavage pl...
متن کاملNeural circuit rewiring: insights from DD synapse remodeling.
Nervous systems exhibit many forms of neuronal plasticity during growth, learning and memory consolidation, as well as in response to injury. Such plasticity can occur across entire nervous systems as with the case of insect metamorphosis, in individual classes of neurons, or even at the level of a single neuron. A striking example of neuronal plasticity in C. elegans is the synaptic rewiring o...
متن کاملFunctional neural circuits that underlie developmental stuttering
The aim of this study was to identify differences in functional and effective brain connectivity between persons who stutter (PWS) and typically developing (TD) fluent speakers, and to assess whether those differences can serve as biomarkers to distinguish PWS from TD controls. We acquired resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging data in 44 PWS and 50 TD controls. We then used Indepe...
