DOI: 10.1002/dneu.22661
Abstract: Large excitatory synapses are found at specific points in the neuronal circuits of the auditory brainstem, to enable fast information transfer and the preservation of acoustic timing information. The extracellular cues and signaling mechanisms that… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/hbm.25836
Abstract: Autonomic, pain, limbic, and sensory processes are mainly governed by the central nervous system, with brainstem nuclei as relay centers for these crucial functions. Yet, the structural connectivity of brainstem nuclei in living humans remains… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/hbm.25962
Abstract: Brainstem nuclei are key participants in the generation and maintenance of arousal, which is a basic function that modulates wakefulness/sleep, autonomic responses, affect, attention, and consciousness. Their mechanism is based on diffuse pathways ascending from… read more here.

Abstract: Cephalic tetanus (CT) is a severe form of tetanus that follows head wounds and the intoxication of cranial nerves by tetanus neurotoxin (TeNT). Hallmarks of CT are cerebral palsy, which anticipates the typical spastic paralysis… read more here.

Functional and Neuropathological Evidence for a Role of the Brainstem in Autism
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience"
DOI: 10.3389/fnint.2021.748977
Abstract: The brainstem includes many nuclei and fiber tracts that mediate a wide range of functions. Data from two parallel approaches to the study of autistic spectrum disorder (ASD) implicate many brainstem structures. The first approach… read more here.
