Existence of long-lasting experience-dependent plasticity in endocrine cell networks
Experience-dependent plasticity of cell and tissue function is critical for survival by allowing organisms to dynamically adjust physiological processes in response to changing or harsh environmental conditions. Despite the conferred evolutionary advantage, it remains unknown whether emergent experience-dependent properties are present in cell populations organized as networks within endocrine ...
متن کاملEffect of Norepinephrine depletion on induction of experience dependent plasticity in male rat barrel cortex
Introduction: Barrel cortex of rats is a part of somatosensory cortex, which receives information from facial whiskers. Vibrisectomy by sensory deprivation leads to some changes in the barrel cortex, which have been known as experience dependent plasticity. On the other hand, Norepinephrine (NE) and locus coeruleus, which is the main source of NE, influenced response properties of cortical bar...
متن کاملExperience-dependent plasticity from eye opening enables lasting, visual cortex-dependent enhancement of motion vision.
Developmentally regulated plasticity of vision has generally been associated with "sensitive" or "critical" periods in juvenile life, wherein visual deprivation leads to loss of visual function. Here we report an enabling form of visual plasticity that commences in infant rats from eye opening, in which daily threshold testing of optokinetic tracking, amid otherwise normal visual experience, st...
متن کاملState-dependent long lasting modulation
The basis of locomotion is the rhythmic activity of locomotor organs. During walking, rhythmic alternating bursts occur in leg motoneurons which result from the integration of signals from central pattern generators, sense organs and coordinating signals from neighboring segments. The rhythmic bursting pattern is shaped by rhythmic excitatory and inhibitory drive, as well as a long lasting (ton...
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...
