recommendations! Published in 2017 at "Current Opinion in Neurobiology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.conb.2017.03.016

Abstract: The synaptic homeostasis hypothesis (SHY) states that wake brings about a net overall increase in synaptic strength in many brain circuits that needs to be renormalized by sleep. I will review recent studies that were… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2018 at "Neuron"

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuron.2018.06.029

Abstract: The mammalian suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) functions as a master circadian pacemaker, integrating environmental input to align physiological and behavioral rhythms to local time cues. Approximately 10% of SCN neurons express vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP); however,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroscience.2017.12.047

Abstract: Defined medium organotypic cultures (DMOTC) containing spinal dorsal horn neurons are especially useful in studying the etiology and pharmacology of chronic pain. We made whole-cell recordings from neurons in acutely isolated mouse spinal cord slices… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/access.2023.3246950

Abstract: Myoelectric-based motor intent detection is typically used to interface with assistive devices. However, the intent detection performance is sensitive to interference of electromyogram (EMG) signals. Recently, EMG signals are decomposed into motor units (MU) firing… read more here.

DOI: 10.1142/s0129065719500175

Abstract: We employed high-density microelectrode arrays to investigate spontaneous firing patterns of neurons in brain circuits of the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) in mice. We recorded from over 150 neurons for 10min in each of eight… read more here.

DOI: 10.1152/jn.00016.2023

Abstract: The ventrolateral periaqueductal gray (vlPAG) is a key brain area within the descending pain modulatory pathway and an important target for opioid-induced analgesia. The vlPAG contains heterogeneous neurons with respect to neurotransmitter content, receptor and… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2025 at "Journal of neurophysiology"

DOI: 10.1152/jn.00052.2025

Abstract: Numerous cortical and subcortical inputs innervate the thalamus and robustly control thalamic activity. These synaptic inputs differ in shape and undergo dynamic changes throughout development and disease conditions. How the shape of postsynaptic currents regulates… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2022 at "Hypertension"

DOI: 10.1161/hypertensionaha.122.19754

Abstract: Background: We tested the hypothesis that women who develop gestational hypertension (GH) display abnormal sympathetic action potential (AP) discharge patterns during late pregnancy (32–36 weeks), both at supine rest and during postural stress. Methods: Thirteen… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2019 at "BioMedical Engineering OnLine"

DOI: 10.1186/s12938-019-0700-z

Abstract: BackgroundDeep brain stimulation (DBS) has a good prospect for treating many brain diseases. Recent studies have shown that axonal activation induced by pulse stimulations may play an important role in DBS therapies through wide projections… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2020 at "PLoS Computational Biology"

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pcbi.1008075

Abstract: We previously proposed, on theoretical grounds, that the cerebellum must regulate the dimensionality of its neuronal activity during motor learning and control to cope with the low firing frequency of inferior olive neurons, which form… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0335081

Abstract: Assuming the voltage-gated sodium channel (VGSC) NaV1.7 facilitates action potential generation upon slow electrical depolarization, we investigated protoxin II and TTX to target VGSC sub-types and to assess their role in C-fiber excitability when stimulated… read more here.
