Modulatory effects and interactions of substance P, dopamine and 5-HT in a neuronal network
(2003-04-18)
The spinal neuronal network that generates the locomotor rhythm in lamprey contains excitatory and inhibitory interneurons, reticulospinal inputs from the brainstem, and motor neurons. In this thesis, I have studied how ...
Diversity of striatal interneurons : connectivity and functions
(2022-05-25)
Multisensory integration of cortical and thalamic inputs by the striatal network, and its modulation by local acetylcholine and midbrain dopamine, are crucial components of movement control and striatal function. A flexible ...
Role of c-di-GMP signalling in bacterial-host interactions
(2010-09-09)
Bacteria have various ways to sense environmental signals and to adapt their behavior and physiology through different signaling systems. Secondary messenger signaling, amplified by enzymatic activity, rapidly transmits a ...
A critic in action? A functional examination of the Striato-Pallido-Habenular circuit
(2022-05-19)
The basal ganglia (BG) and the midbrain dopamine (DA) system are considered key loci of reinforcement learning (RL), or learning by "trial and error", in the brain. The BG are implicated in action selection, and thus the ...
