Abstract:
Synaptic behaviour and the progression of morphological differentiation of the XY chromosome pair during pachytene was studied for the first time in three species of the South American subterranean rodents of the genus Ctenomys (tuco-tucos). In general, synapsis progression in the sex pair could be subdivided into four substages: (i) initial partial synapsis of the X and Y chromosome axes and beginning of the differentiation of the unsynapsed regions; (ii) complete or almost complete synapsis of the Y axis accompanied with morphological differentiation of the unsynapsed region of the X chromos

Abstract:
SummaryKaryotypic investigation of a phenotypically normal but sterile male mouse showed the presence of an XYY sex chromosome constitution. The synaptic behaviour of the three sex chromosomes was examined in 65 pachytene cells. The sex chromosomes formed a variety of synaptic configurations: an XYY trivalent (40%); an XY bivalent and Y univalent (38·5%); an X univalent and YY bivalent (13·8%); or X, Y, Y univalence (7·7%). There was considerable variation in the extent of synapsis and some of the associations clearly involved nonhomologous pairing. These observations have been compared with p

Social behaviours such as mate choice require context-specific responses, often with evolutionary consequences. Increasing evidence indicates that the behavioural plasticity associated with mate choice involves learning. For example, poeciliids show age-dependent changes in female preference functions and express synaptic-plasticity-associated molecular markers during mate choice. Here, we test whether social cognition is necessary for female preference behaviour by blocking the central player in synaptic plasticity, NMDAR ( N -methyl d -aspartate receptor), in a poeciliid fish, Xiphophorus ni

Background. Hippocampal synaptic plasticity during the pathological process of depression has received increasing attention. Hippocampal neuron atrophy and the reduction in synaptic density induced by chronic stress are important pathological mechanisms of depression. Electroacupuncture (EA) exerts beneficial effects on depression, but the mechanism is unclear. This study explored the effect of EA on synaptic plasticity and the potential mechanism. Methods.

Functional reduction and augmentation of 5-HT activity is respectively associated with increased and decreased aggression in various animal models of aggression.

To address these potential functional roles of LTP and LTD, we have taken advantage of the powerful in vivo effects of drugs of abuse that exert their behavioural effects in large part by acting in the nucleus accumbens (NAc)

Synaptic abnormalities such as fold-back loops, short pairing partner switches, interstitial nonhomologous pairing regions, and asynchrony between bivalents were associated and correlated with interlocking. It is suggested that the asynapsis is due to a failure in the interlocking repair. All these

Synaptic vesicle fusion is a crucial step in the neurotransmission process.

Abstract:
This article provides a brief summary of the history of transcranial methods for stimulating the human brain in conscious volunteers and reviews the methodology and physiology of transcranial magnetic stimulation and transcranial direct current stimulation. The former stimulates neural axons and generates action potentials and synaptic activity, whereas the latter polarises the membrane potential of neurones and changes their sensitivity to ongoing synaptic inputs. When coupled with brain imaging methods such as functional magnetic resonance imaging or electroencephalography, transcranial magn

Abstract:
Nutritional disturbances during the early postnatal period can have long-lasting effects on neurodevelopment and may be related to behavioural changes at adulthood. While such neuronal connection disruption can contribute to social and behaviour alterations, the dysregulation of the neuroendocrine pathways involved in nutrient-sensing balance may also cause such impairments, although the underlying mechanisms are still unclear. We aimed to evaluate sex-specific neurodevelopmental and behavioural changes upon postnatal overfeeding and determine the potential underpinning mechanisms at the centr

Here we focus on the XY<sub>1</sub>Y<sub>2</sub> condition in male common shrew Sorex araneus Linnaeus, 1758, applying electron microscopy and immunocytochemistry for a comprehensive analysis of structure, synapsis and behaviour of the sex trivalent in pachytene spermatocytes. The pachytene sex trivalent consists of three distinct parts: short and long synaptic SC fragments (between the X and Y<sub>1</sub> and between the X and Y<sub>2</sub>, respectively) and a long asynaptic region of the X in-between. Chromatin inactivation was revealed in the XY<sub>1</sub> synaptic region, the asynaptic r

Abstract:
In recent years, the need for systems capable of achieving the dynamic learning and information storage efficiency of the biological brain has led to the emergence of neuromorphic research. In particular, neuromorphic optics was born with the idea of reproducing the functional and structural properties of the biological brain. In this context, solitonic neuromorphic research has demonstrated the ability to reproduce dynamic and plastic structures capable of learning and storing through conformational changes in the network. In this paper, we demonstrate that solitonic neural networks are capab

Abstract:
This paper proposes a new logic element model based on an Izhikevich (IZ) neuron and neural system that emulates two- and three-state logic behaviours. In a noise-free environment, with a periodic current of suitable amplitude and frequency, the IZ system is capable of performing logical AND and OR operations. Initially, a single IZ neuron demonstrates membrane dynamics in response to an input signal generated by combining two-state logic currents below the threshold. Subsequently, an IZ neural system model is introduced to enhance the reliability and resilience of the system. This model is ch
