Gastric Inhibitory Polypeptide in the brain
(2009-06-30)
The hippocampus is an area of active cell proliferation and neurogenesis within the adult
mammalian brain. Adult neurogenesis is of great importance for the brain, since it increases
neuroplasticity and the ability to ...
Differences in glutamatergic transmission onto interneurons and pyramidal cells in the rat hippocampus
(2010-09-03)
In the human brain there are about 100 billion excitatory glutamatergic neurons and 10 billion inhibitory GABAergic neurons. During development, these neurons are synaptically wired together into neural networks, functionally ...
Regulation of postnatal neurogenesis and brain angiogenesis by thyroid hormone
(2009-12-07)
Thyroid hormone (TH), which is secreted by the thyroid gland, exerts significant
effects on the central nervous system (CNS), especially during development, so
that delayed treatment of perinatal hypothyroidism results ...
Labile glutamate synaptic transmission onto CA1 hippocampal pyramidal neurons: regional, functional and developmental diversity
(2024-02-14)
A single neuron in the brain receives tens of thousands of glutamate synapses from other neurons, and these synapses can differ in their properties depending on their role in the neural circuit, during brain development ...
