Brain composition in Heliconius butterflies, posteclosion growth and experience-dependent neuropil plasticity.
Behavioral and sensory adaptations are often reflected in the differential expansion of brain components. These volumetric differences represent changes in cell number, size, and/or connectivity, which may denote changes in the functional and evolutionary relationships between different brain regions, and between brain composition and behavioral ecology. Here we describe the brain composition o...
متن کاملExperience-dependent structural plasticity in the adult human brain.
Contrary to assumptions that changes in brain networks are possible only during crucial periods of development, research in the past decade has supported the idea of a permanently plastic brain. Novel experience, altered afferent input due to environmental changes and learning new skills are now recognized as modulators of brain function and underlying neuroanatomic circuitry. Given findings in...
متن کاملExperience-dependent plasticity of neurovascularization.
Experience powerfully shapes structural and functional organization of neurons during development and in adulthood. Recent experiments in the mouse primary somatosensory cortex now suggest that experience is also a critical factor in shaping neurovasculature and promoting angiogenesis. These results support the universality of brain plasticity and show that all structural cellular components in...
متن کاملStructural plasticity of circuits in cortical neuropil.
Learning and memory formation in the brain depend on the plasticity of neural circuits. In the adult and developing cerebral cortex, this plasticity can result from the formation and elimination of dendritic spines. New synaptic contacts appear in the neuropil where the gaps between axonal and dendritic branches can be bridged by dendritic spines. Such sites are termed potential synapses. Here,...
