Brain Regions Responsive to Novelty in the Absence of Awareness
absolute probability value by simulating 40 experiments in which a representative number of transcripts (27,993 transcripts in each experiment) were identified and compared. We derived the distribution of transcripts used for these simulations from the average level of expression observed in the original samples. We then compared the distribution of the p-chance scores obtained in the 40 simula...
متن کاملBursting by taste-responsive cells in the rodent brain stem.
Neurons that fire in bursts have been well-characterized in vision and other neural systems, but not in taste systems. We therefore examined whether brain stem gustatory neurons fire in bursts during spontaneous activity and, if so, whether such cells differ from nonbursting cells in other characteristics. We looked at neurons in the nucleus of the solitary tract (NST) of C57BL/6ByJ (B6) and 12...
متن کاملBrain regions responsive to novelty in the absence of awareness.
Brain regions responsive to novelty, without awareness, were mapped in humans by positron emission tomography. Participants performed a simple reaction-time task in which all stimuli were equally likely but, unknown to them, followed a complex sequence. Measures of behavioral performance indicated that participants learned the sequences even though they were unaware of the existence of any orde...
متن کاملSocially responsive effects of brain oxidative metabolism on aggression.
Despite ongoing high energetic demands, brains do not always use glucose and oxygen in a ratio that produces maximal ATP through oxidative phosphorylation. In some cases glucose consumption exceeds oxygen use despite adequate oxygen availability, a phenomenon known as aerobic glycolysis. Although metabolic plasticity seems essential for normal cognition, studying its functional significance has...
متن کاملDOPA RESPONSIVE DYSTONIA: A CASE REPORT
Dopa responsive dystonia (DRD) is a dystonic syndrome of childhood, usually affecting gait and subsequently developing into parkinsonism with a dramatic therapeutic response to levodopa. At the best of our recollection this is the first case in Iranian medical literature of a 13 year old boy, affected by this interesting, rare and treatable disease which can be easily diagnosed if clinicia...
