Sentence examples for nerve circuit from inspiring English sources

This GPR-mediated molecular mechanism may work not only in the peripheral part of the TRPV1-positive nerve circuit, but also in the central synapses.

These findings are in keeping with experimental evidence showing that, in sheep orally inoculated with BSE, PrPSc is first detected in the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus, hence suggesting a major role of the vagus nerve circuit in neuroinvasion [ 28].

Scar tissue covers the wound, and even nerves that were initially unscathed die, leaving the body less able to renew or rewire damaged nerve circuits.

The most affected tracts included nerve circuits involved in general cognitive performance, emotion, maintaining attention and executive function, and sensory processing.

Neuroscience studies of the plasticity of the brain processes of cognition and language would naturally target the latter; that is, the neuronal reorganisation processes, or modification of nerve cell circuits underlying specific brain functions.

We here offer a mechanistic model grounded in cortical nerve cell circuits that builds upon neuroanatomical and neurophysiological knowledge and explains both near-simultaneous activations and fine-grained delays.

To understand the brain processes of language at the mechanistic level of nerve cell circuits, it is essential to ask whether near-simultaneity of early brain processes indexing language implies strict synchrony or might still allow for fine-grained differences between activation times.

One way to address this question is to develop a computational model at the level of nerve-cell circuits that can reproduce spatial and temporal aspects of brain activity in the relevant cortical areas and provide a mechanistic explanation of the existing neurophysiological findings.

A single spider can inject its victims with as many as two hundred compounds: proteases that dissolve flesh, gelatinases that dissolve connective tissues, neurotoxins that short-circuit nerves, slow the heart, and freeze the limbs.

But how does a circuit of nerves regulate mood?

Lees continues: "Plasticity recognises some adaptability in nerve cells and the circuits of the brain.
