This is in contrast to the processing of acoustic stimulation, which showed a predominance of the contralateral pathways.
The spiking activity of the OSN displayed considerable processing of the stimulation pattern.
For example, brain regions not commonly associated with the cerebral processing of nociceptive stimulation in the adult, such as the olfactory cortex, cuneus, and fusiform gyrus, were also not active in the infants.
The activity in specific regions of the brain indicated appropriate processing of the stimulations, according to a statement from Ben-Gurion University, but additional tests to assess Mr. Sharon's level of consciousness were less conclusive.
The doctors at Soroka Hospital in Beersheba said that during tests, "significant brain activity was observed... indicating appropriate processing of these stimulations".
Side-chain oxysterols regulate physiologically relevant cholesterol-homeostatic pathways: LXR activation, inhibition of SREBP processing and stimulation of HMGR degradation through interaction with Insig-2, and stimulation of cholesterol esterification.
To explore underlying mechanisms, spinal processing of repetitive nociceptive stimulation and expression of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) were also investigated.
The aim of this study was to characterize the effect of opioid receptor blockade on the physiological processing of painful thermal stimulation in the absence of cognitive manipulation.
These data indicate that PBA may impact both α- and β-secretase processing of APPGV16 with the stimulation of α-secretase contributing dominantly to the stimulatory effects observed with PBA.
The findings from our study point to a network perspective of the immediate processing of visual erotic stimulation.
