Roger Sperry: pioneer of neuronal specificity.
This essay looks at the historical significance of two APS classic papers that are freely available online: Sperry RW. Optic nerve regeneration with return of vision in anurans. J Neurophysiol 7: 57-69, 1944 (http://jn.physiology.org/cgi/reprint/7/1/57). Sperry RW. Restoration of vision after crossing of optic nerves and after contralateral transplantation of eye. J Neurophysiol 8: 15-28, 1945 ...
متن کاملSense and specificity in neuronal calcium signalling☆
Changes in the intracellular free calcium concentration ([Ca²⁺]i) in neurons regulate many and varied aspects of neuronal function over time scales from microseconds to days. The mystery is how a single signalling ion can lead to such diverse and specific changes in cell function. This is partly due to aspects of the Ca²⁺ signal itself, including its magnitude, duration, localisation and persis...
متن کاملA neuronal retuning hypothesis of sentence-specificity in Broca's area.
It is clear that the left inferior frontal gyrus (LIFG) contributes in some fashion to sentence processing. While neuroimaging and neuropsychological evidence support a domain-general working memory function, recent neuroimaging data show that particular subregions of the LIFG, particularly the pars triangularis (pTri), show selective activation for sentences relative to verbal working memory a...
متن کاملMacroscopic and Macromolecular Specificity of Alkylphenol Anesthetics for Neuronal Substrates
We used a photoactive general anesthetic called meta-azi-propofol (AziPm) to test the selectivity and specificity of alkylphenol anesthetic binding in mammalian brain. Photolabeling of rat brain sections with [(3)H]AziPm revealed widespread but heterogeneous ligand distribution, with [(3)H]AziPm preferentially binding to synapse-dense areas compared to areas composed largely of cell bodies or m...
متن کاملNeuronal Specificity & Plasticity: from Sperry to the Blue Brain
This is a modest review of a couple of papers devoted to an examination of neural specificity and invariance among microcircuits in neocortical columns and minicolums, and the loci of experience dependent plasticity and learning within and between these microcircuits. It focuses on somatosensory cortex, but the appendix covers visual research as well on some of the early work on these issues, f...
