First, the very first dose of nicotine is argued to set off a cascade of neurological events in the brain involving, amongst others, dopamine.
The brain may be unique amongst organs in providing evidence of disease in normal function, more than 50 years before it produces symptoms.
Amongst the brain study comparisons there was a higher concordance of eQTL overlap when comparing results from expression levels measured in the same brain region, notably cerebellar tissue.
Bilateral AIC and right ACC were amongst the brain areas activated in the non-painful condition, and bilateral AIC and bilateral ACC in the painful condition.
It is amongst the brain regions most frequently reported in the functional neuroimaging literature as being significantly activated when engaging in attentionally or behaviourally demanding cognitive tasks (Paus et al. 1998).
The chemosensitivity of the brain's respiratory centre is reduced amongst sleep-deprived patients, with White et al. [29] reporting a decrease in intrinsic ventilatory response to hypoxic and hypercapnic states.
The c-Fos quantification was performed at different levels of the brain in 59 different structures, which (amongst others) are known to show stress-induced increase in c-Fos expression [13], [21], [22].
The chemosensitivity of the brain's respiratory centre is reduced amongst sleep-deprived patients, with White et al. [ 29] reporting a decrease in intrinsic ventilatory response to hypoxic and hypercapnic states.
Further, major obstacle to targeting the brain with therapeutics in general (P/P drugs amongst them) is the presence of various barriers.
If human ears hear sounds from different sources, the brain chooses to pay attention to a particular voice amongst a whole range of sound streams in an environment.
Dunbar's argument, first set out in 1992, was based on the limited capacity of the human brain's neocortex – the part of the brain responsible for conscious thought, sensory perception and language, amongst others.
