Cortical patterns of category-selective activation for faces, places and objects in adults with autism.
Autism is associated with widespread atypicalities in perception, cognition and social behavior. A crucial question concerns how these atypicalities are reflected in the underlying brain activation. One way to examine possible perturbations of cortical organization in autism is to analyze the activation of category-selective ventral visual cortex, already clearly delineated in typical populatio...
متن کاملThe Races, Places, and Molecular Faces
The classical experiments on synaptic vesicle recycling in the 1970s by Heuser and Reese, Ceccarelli, and their colleagues raised opposing theories regarding the speed, mechanisms, and locations of membrane retrieval at the synapse. The Heuser and Reese experiments supported a model in which synaptic vesicle recycling is mediated by the formation of coated vesicles, is relatively slow, and occu...
متن کاملVisual disorders of higher cortical function.
Following stroke or other causes of brain damage, patients may demonstrate visual disorders of higher cortical function. These defects involve visual attention, oculomotor skills, visuospatial orientation and object recognition. It is important for optometrists to understand these conditions and consider their presence in individuals with persistent visual complaints despite a normal exam, or i...
متن کاملVisual category-selectivity for faces, places and objects emerges along different developmental trajectories.
The organization of category-selective regions in ventral visual cortex is well characterized in human adults. We investigated a crucial, previously unaddressed, question about how this organization emerges developmentally. We contrasted the developmental trajectories for face-, object-, and place-selective activation in the ventral visual cortex in children, adolescents, and adults. Although c...
متن کاملAction of brain-derived neurotrophic factor on function and morphology of visual cortical neurons
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is known to play a role in experience-dependent plasticity of the developing visual cortex. For example, BDNF acutely enhances long-term potentiation and blocks long-term depression in the visual cortex of young rats. Such acute actions of BDNF suggested to be mediated mainly through presynaptic mechanisms. A chronic application of BDNF to the visual cor...
