Neuronal and network resonance in the external globus pallidus Open
Spiking resonance causes spontaneously firing neurons to preferentially encode information about frequency components of their input that are close to the cell’s own rate. In the globus pallidus, transmission delays in the local collateral…

Characterization of the functional and clinical impacts of CACNA1A missense variants found in neurodevelopmental disorders Open
CACNA1A encodes the P/Q-type Ca V 2.1 calcium channels whose function underlies neuronal excitability, presynaptic neurotransmitter release, and Ca 2+ signaling in neurons. Pathogenic variants in CACNA1A have been found in individuals with…

Phase Delays between Mouse Globus Pallidus Neurons Entrained by Common Oscillatory Drive Arise from Their Intrinsic Properties, Not Their Coupling Open
A hallmark of Parkinson's disease is the appearance of correlated oscillatory discharge throughout the cortico-basal ganglia (BG) circuits. In the primate globus pallidus (GP), where the discharge of GP neurons is normally uncorrelated, pa…

Spontaneous Activity of the Local GABAergic Synaptic Network Causes Irregular Neuronal Firing in the External Globus Pallidus Open
Autonomously firing GABAergic neurons in the external globus pallidus (GPe) form a local synaptic network. In slices, most GPe neurons receive a continuous inhibitory synaptic barrage from 1 or 2 presynaptic GPe neurons. We measured the ba…

A Neuromechanical Model of Multiple Network Rhythmic Pattern Generators for Forward Locomotion in C. elegans Open
Multiple mechanisms contribute to the generation, propagation, and coordination of the rhythmic patterns necessary for locomotion in Caenorhabditis elegans . Current experiments have focused on two possibilities: pacemaker neurons and stre…

Role of TRPM8 Channels in Altered Cold Sensitivity of Corneal Primary Sensory Neurons Induced by Axonal Damage Open
The cornea is extensively innervated by trigeminal ganglion cold thermoreceptor neurons expressing TRPM8 (transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 8). These neurons respond to cooling, hyperosmolarity and wetness of t…

Potential role of a ventral nerve cord central pattern generator in forward and backward locomotion in<i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i> Open
C. elegans locomotes in an undulatory fashion, generating thrust by propagating dorsoventral bends along its body. Although central pattern generators (CPGs) are typically involved in animal locomotion, their presence in C. elegans has bee…

A ventral nerve cord CPG may underlie locomotion in C. elegans Open
Despite the relative simplicity of C. elegans, its locomotion machinery is not yet well understood. We focus on the generation of dorsoventral body bends. While central pattern generators are commonly involved in animal locomotion, their p…

TRPM8-Dependent Dynamic Response in a Mathematical Model of Cold Thermoreceptor Open
Cold-sensitive nerve terminals (CSNTs) encode steady temperatures with regular, rhythmic temperature-dependent firing patterns that range from irregular tonic firing to regular bursting (static response). During abrupt temperature changes,…
