Figure 1: Existence of gap junctions between V2a interneurons and motor neurons. Figure 2: Motor neurons control the strength of synaptic transmission and the firing threshold of V2a interneurons.

The researchers demonstrated that the rapid compensatory recruitment of the cortex-to-brainstem pathways occurred when other responsible motor circuits failed to function. This dynamic recruitment ...

Scientists have uncovered that an emerging gene therapy for Parkinson's disease creates new circuits in the brain associated with improved motor movement. These findings, published today in ...

Benowitz believes circuit rewiring is a promising approach ... led to greater recovery of both nerve growth and motor function. "Physical/occupational therapy should always be part of the strategy ...

"The Fugl-Meyer motor upper extremity [score] was 20 to ... They jazz up the circuits, and now the circuits function again. It may be very important to combine it with physical therapy, as the ...

Signals relayed to motor neurons from the brain enable muscle ... how the brain is communicating these signals." To dissect the circuits linking the brain to the spinal cord, the researchers ...

Researchers are investigating the mechanisms and identifying new areas of the brain that can benefit patients when stimulated ...

In the fruit fly, these motor functions are controlled by the VNC ... but how the pre-movement VNC circuits generate these distinct context-dependent movements through the same set of neurons ...

Cerebellar circuits are established by two major types ... in the cerebellum contribute to a wide range of motor and non-motor functions. When we embarked on this study, very little was known ...
