the primary excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system -- in the medial vestibular nucleus parvocellular part (MVePC Glu) of the brain. Activation of these neurons is required and ...

Motion sickness is a very common condition that affects about 1 in 3 people, but the brain circuits involved are largely unknown. In the current study ...

The team found that motion activates glutamatergic neurons—neurons that produce glutamate, the primary excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system—in the medial vestibular nucleus ...

Glutamatergic medial vestibular nuclei parvocellular part ... via their downstream targets in the lateral parabrachial nucleus, and inhibition of this neural circuit alleviated motion-induced ...

Beijing Normal University-led researchers have identified specific high-order thalamic nuclei that drive human conscious ...

A new study using intracranial recordings in humans reveals that the thalamus, particularly its higher-order regions, plays a ...

Distribution of Ranvier nodes along myelinated axons is a critical determinant of conduction velocity, significantly influencing spike arrival timing and hence neural circuit function. The patterns of ...

The IAEA's NUCLEUS information resource portal provides access to over 100 scientific, technical and regulatory resources, including databases, applications, publications and training material. As it ...
