Sentences with phrase «distinct subregions»

At least ten distinct subregions differ in cell morphology, physiology and the expression of hundreds of genes with likely tissue functions.

Furthermore, movement - independent ZENK expression in the forebrain of night - migratory birds performing magnetic orientation at night is confined to Cluster N [with the strongest activation in distinct subregions (the shell surrounding the DNH nucleus)-RSB-, as shown by the detailed quantification of ZENK expression within Cluster N performed in this study], and this expression massively decreased in corresponding brain areas of non-migratory songbirds and in all bird species during daytime [13].

The amygdala is composed of distinct subregions that interact with dissociable brain networks, which have been studied only in experimental animals.

Not exact matches

The hippocampus, a brain region that consists of several interconnected subregions, each with a distinct neuron population, plays a vital role in memory.

It was initially thought that age - related memory loss is an early manifestation of Alzheimer's, but mounting evidence suggests that it is a distinct process that affects the dentate gyrus (DG), a subregion of the hippocampus that receives direct input from the EC.

A functional connectivity approach at the subregional level may therefore yield novel insights into GAD.To determine whether distinct connectivity patterns can be reliably identified for the basolateral (BLA) and centromedial (CMA) subregions of the human amygdala, and to examine subregional connectivity patterns and potential compensatory amygdalar connectivity in GAD.Cross - sectional study.Academic medical center.Two cohorts of healthy control subjects (consisting of 17 and 31 subjects) and 16 patients with GAD.Functional connectivity with cytoarchitectonically determined BLA and CMA regions of interest, measured during functional magnetic resonance imaging performed while subjects were resting quietly in the scanner.

Interestingly, the stem cells in most subregions are distinct, and do not differentiate into the cells from adjacent subregions.

Based on our synthesis of published anatomical and functional data in humans and nonhuman animals (see Materials and Methods), we hypothesized that the amygdala would parse into three subregions that each anchor a large - scale network of brain regions implicated in distinct processes of social cognition.
