Pedunculopontine Gamma Band Activity and Development
This review highlights the most important discovery in the reticular activating system in the last 10 years, the manifestation of gamma band activity in cells of the reticular activating system (RAS), especially in the pedunculopontine nucleus, which is in charge of waking and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. The identification of different cell groups manifesting P/Q-type Ca(2+) channels that c...
متن کاملDoes High Frequency Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) Affect EEG Gamma Band Activity?
Background: Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is a noninvasive, inexpensive and safe analgesic technique used for relieving acute and chronic pain. However, despite all these advantages, there has been very little research into the therapeutic effects of TENS on brain activity. To the best of our knowledge, there is no evidence on the effect of high frequency TENS on the gamma ...
متن کاملAnalogy and Relational Reasoning
Analogy is an inductive mechanism based on structured comparisons of mental representations. It is an important special case of role-based relational reasoning, in which inferences are generated on the basis of patterns of relational roles. Analogical reasoning is a complex process involving retrieval of structured knowledge from long-term memory, representing and manipulating role-filler bindi...
متن کاملevent - related gamma band activity in the lateral
44 Although the thalamus is an important module in ‘pain networks’, there are few studies of 45 the effect of experimental pain upon thalamic oscillations. We have now examined the 46 hypothesis that during a series of painful cutaneous laser stimuli thalamic signals will show 47 stimulus-related gamma band spectral activity, which is modulated by attention to versus 48 distraction from the pai...
متن کاملGamma band activity in the developing parafascicular nucleus ( Pf ) 1
23 The parafascicular nucleus (Pf) receives cholinergic input from the pedunculopontine 24 nucleus, part of the reticular activating system involved in waking and REM sleep, and sends 25 projections to the cortex. We tested the hypothesis that Pf neurons fire maximally at gamma 26 band frequency (30-90 Hz), that this mechanism involves high threshold voltage-dependent 27 P/Qand N-type calcium c...
