The dimmed neuronal activity was most notable between the brain regions that control the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems; the physiological calming that should occur after stress was apparently less likely to take place.
Pannexin genes, innexins homologues, have since been discovered in the genomes of higher vertebrates, including humans, where they are expressed in a variety of tissues, with seemingly significant functions, most notable in the brain and in mediating immune response to pro-inflammatory stimuli through ATP-dependent activation of the inflammasome complex [ 7, 25].
The most notable change concerns apoplexy (brain stroke), which moved from a rank of 33 to 29 and then to 23 over the three rounds.
The immigration of scientific talent (Einstein is the most notable example), derisively known as the brain drain to America, is an important factor in America's continued technological and military prowess in the face of a national student body generally averse to math.
The scans found the most notable effects in parts of the brain that are known to be important for perceptions, rather than other roles such as language and movement.
Most notable are the cases with a complete remission of brain metastases.
Among the most notable: women were once considered less intelligent than men when studies showed their brains weren't as big.
But her most notable line of research seeks to uncover the fundamental neural principles that underlie one of the brain's most highly specialized and socially important tasks: recognizing a face.
The most notable finding from our cross-species comparisons is that genes that are differentially expressed in brains of dominant and subordinate wasps are likely to be associated with aggression in other species, from honey bees, to flies, to mice.
This is most notable in acute lesions where inflammation plays a role in the breakdown of the blood-brain-barrier, migration of immunocytes into the CNS, and production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and neuronal damage.
