Copper is an endogenous modulator of neural circuit spontaneous activity.
For reasons that remain insufficiently understood, the brain requires among the highest levels of metals in the body for normal function. The traditional paradigm for this organ and others is that fluxes of alkali and alkaline earth metals are required for signaling, but transition metals are maintained in static, tightly bound reservoirs for metabolism and protection against oxidative stress. ...
متن کاملPerceptual learning and roving: Stimulus types and overlapping neural populations
In perceptual learning, performance usually improves when observers train with one type of stimulus, for example, a bisection stimulus. Roving denotes the situation when, instead of one, two or more types of stimuli are presented randomly interleaved, for example, a bisection stimulus and a vernier. For some combinations of stimulus types, performance improves in roving situations whereas for o...
متن کاملMemory consolidation by replay of stimulus-specific neural activity.
Memory consolidation transforms initially labile memory traces into more stable representations. One putative mechanism for consolidation is the reactivation of memory traces after their initial encoding during subsequent sleep or waking state. However, it is still unknown whether consolidation of individual memory contents relies on reactivation of stimulus-specific neural representations in h...
متن کاملEndogenous influences on perceptual bistability depend on exogenous stimulus characteristics
We investigated the influence of changing physical parameters and task on bistable perception of an ambiguously rotating sphere (SFM). Increasing dot-density and velocity decreased the duration of perceptual phases during both passive viewing and voluntary control exertion. Our main finding is that voluntary control of perception depends on the physical parameters constituting the stimulus. Thi...
متن کاملNeural Variability Quenching Predicts Individual Perceptual Abilities.
Neural activity during repeated presentations of a sensory stimulus exhibits considerable trial-by-trial variability. Previous studies have reported that trial-by-trial neural variability is reduced (quenched) by the presentation of a stimulus. However, the functional significance and behavioral relevance of variability quenching and the potential physiological mechanisms that may drive it have...
