Coordinating Neuronal Actin–Microtubule Dynamics
The growth and migration of neurons require continuous remodelling of the neuronal cytoskeleton, providing a versatile cellular framework for force generation and guided movement, in addition to structural support. Actin filaments and microtubules are central to the dynamic action of the cytoskeleton and rapid advances in imaging technologies are enabling ever more detailed visualisation of the...

Action potential or Spikes: electrical pulses of an amplitude of about 100mV that travel along nerve fibers. Field potential an electrical signal recorded extracellularly which arises from the synchronized activity of many cells. Hippocampus one of the most studied area of the mammalian nervous system which is part of the limbic system and is involved in learning and memory. Neuron the main exc...
متن کاملNeuronal Dynamics and Plasticity
One of the most prominent features of the electrical activity of dissociated cultured neural networks is the phenomenon of network bursts. Profiles of the instantaneous firing rate during bursts vary in shape and intensity during neuronal culture development. To shed some light on burst profile variability we constructed “pacemaker-driven” random recurrent neural network models with both static...
متن کاملCytoskeletal Regulation: Coordinating Actin and Microtubule Dynamics in Membrane Trafficking
The Arp2/3 complex is essential for actin nucleation and filament elongation in a variety of intracellular processes. This functional versatility is exerted through the regulation of its activity by nucleation-promoting factors (NPFs). The discovery of a new NPF, WHAMM, reveals unexpected connections between the actin and microtubule cytoskeletons and membrane dynamics during ER-to-Golgi transp...
متن کاملNeuronal Dynamics and Spatial Foraging
Foraging is an embodied cognitive process which balances the search constraints of exploration versus exploitation. As such, foraging strategies and mechanisms offer useful insight into abstract forms of search such as visual search, problem solving, and semantic recall. We performed a series of simulations using artificial neural networks to relate metastable neuronal dynamics to observed fora...
