Sentence examples for neuron may not be from inspiring English sources

For instance, if the stimulus time scales are much faster than the characteristic times of the neural response, then coding becomes difficult since the neuron may not be able to adjust its response at the same pace as the stimulus varies.

It is thought that multi-voxel pattern analysis techniques are effective because, although each individual voxel may contain a very large number of neurons, the distribution of different types of neuron may not be even from one voxel to the next, allowing functional differences to be observed (Haynes and Rees, 2006).

The lack of aberrant neuronal proliferation in our mice suggests that differentiated neurons may not be as susceptible to the mitogenic effects of Wnt signaling as are neuroepithelial progenitor cells [ 22].

The hypothesis that intelligent behavior in plants may be an emergent property of cells exchanging signals in a network might sound far-fetched, yet the way that intelligence emerges from a network of neurons may not be very different.

(1) According to the characteristics of the SOM clustering, some neurons may not be winner neurons of any tracks.

Thus, mirror neurons may not be fully functional until a person can perform the actions they are supposed to predict, the team reported online yesterday in Nature Neuroscience.

As the firing rate of dopaminergic neurons may not be affected by these stimuli anymore [14], memory for predicted rewards might not differ from memory for neutral stimuli.

The role of NPY neurons may not be limited to the feeding circuits, per se, since GHRH neurons express NPY Y2 receptors which mediate the downregulation of GHRH mRNA induced by long term fasting in rodents [25], [26].

Together these data suggest that altering the function of the PDF neurons leads to increased fat body triglycerides, but the circadian function of these neurons may not be important for this purpose.

Of course, one concern is that the infected neurons may not be healthy and/or their physiological properties may be altered by the presence of the virus, particularly at prolonged incubation times.

While whole neurons may not be a likely form of antigen for APCs given their limited ability to turn-over, APCs may be able to phagocytose membrane-bound neuronal blebs for cross presentation and subsequent tolerance induction, in a manner analogous to their general ability to cross-present antigen from apoptotic cells [18], [35].
