The role of posterior parietal cortex in detecting changes in feedback contingency
Brain Struct Funct. 2024 Feb 28. doi: 10.1007/s00429-024-02765-9. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWell-practiced or learned behaviors are extremely resilient. For example, it is extremely difficult for a trained typist to forget how to use a keyboard configuration that they are familiar with. While they can be trained on a new keyboard configuration, the original skill quickly comes back when the old keyboard configuration is used again. This resiliency of learned skills is both a blessing and a curse. It makes useful skills durable, but it also makes maladaptive behaviors difficult to extinguish. Crossley et al. (2013) prop...

Expression patterns of Piezo1 in the developing mouse forebrain
Brain Struct Funct. 2024 Feb 27. doi: 10.1007/s00429-024-02759-7. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMalformation during cortical development can disrupt the balance of excitatory and inhibitory neural circuits, contributing to various psychiatric and developmental disorders. One of the critical factors of cortical neural networks is the fine regulation of neurogenesis through mechanical cues, such as shear stress and substrate stiffness. Piezo1, a mechanically-activated channel, serves as a transducer for these mechanical cues, regulating embryogenesis. However, specific cell-type expression patterns of this channel during cor...

Frontal and cerebellar contributions to pitch and rhythm processing: a TMS study
Brain Struct Funct. 2024 Feb 25. doi: 10.1007/s00429-024-02764-w. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMusic represents a salient stimulus for the brain with two key features: pitch and rhythm. Few data are available on cognitive analysis of music listening in musically naïve healthy participants. Beyond auditory cortices, neuroimaging data showed the involvement of prefrontal cortex in pitch and of cerebellum in rhythm. The present study is aimed at investigating the role of prefrontal and cerebellar cortices in both pitch and rhythm processing. The performance of fifteen participants without musical expertise was investigated ...

Generalising XTRACT tractography protocols across common macaque brain templates
Brain Struct Funct. 2024 Feb 23. doi: 10.1007/s00429-024-02760-0. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNon-human primates are extensively used in neuroscience research as models of the human brain, with the rhesus macaque being a prominent example. We have previously introduced a set of tractography protocols (XTRACT) for reconstructing 42 corresponding white matter (WM) bundles in the human and the macaque brain and have shown cross-species comparisons using such bundles as WM landmarks. Our original XTRACT protocols were developed using the F99 macaque brain template. However, additional macaque template brains are becoming inc...

Altered DTI scalars in the hippocampus are associated with morphological and structural changes after traumatic brain injury
Brain Struct Funct. 2024 Feb 21. doi: 10.1007/s00429-024-02758-8. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBlunt and diffuse injury is a highly prevalent form of traumatic brain injury (TBI) which can result in microstructural alterations in the brain. The blunt impact on the brain can affect the immediate contact region but can also affect the vulnerable regions like hippocampus, leading to functional impairment and long-lasting cognitive deficits. The hippocampus of the moderate weight drop injured male rats was longitudinally assessed for microstructural changes using in vivo MR imaging from 4 h to Day 30 post-injury (PI). The DTI...
