Environmental rhythms such as the daily light-dark cycle selected for endogenous clocks. These clocks predict regular environmental changes and provide basis well-timed adaptive homeostasis in physiology behavior of organisms. Endogenous are oscillators that based on positive feedforward negative feedback loops. They generate stable even under constant conditions. Since weak interactions between allow autonomous synchronization, coupling/synchronization provides self-organized physiological timing. Amongst most thoroughly researched circadian clock neurons mammals insects. comprise nuclear clockworks transcriptional/translational loops (TTFL) ∼24 h gene expression entrained to day-night cycle. It is generally assumed this TTFL clockwork drives all oscillations within cells, being any rhythm Instead current gene-based hierarchical model we here a systems view We suggest coupled system posttranslational loop (PTFL) oscillators/clocks run at multiple timescales governs adaptive, dynamic behavior. focus mammalian insect timescales. neuronal plasma membrane-associated signalosomes constitute specific PTFL localized but interlinked membrane potential intracellular messengers with frequencies.

The study of retinal hemodynamics is pivotal for understanding both physiological and pathological conditions affecting the eye. Microcirculation in retina exhibits unique rheological properties flow dynamics compared to larger vessels. This computational investigates possible impact elevated blood lipids on vascular characteristics, focusing viscosity increases potential blockage effects. We utilized fluid solve incompressible Navier-Stokes equations an image-based vessel network under healthy conditions. Our findings reveal that arterial vessels have a higher average mainstream velocity than venous vessels, however, latter experience wall shear stress (WSS) those fine branch which are far away from optical disc. Notably, with more branches subjected greater WSS. Then, we simulated effect by increasing about 10-20%, led proportional rise Furthermore, explored may caused lipids, leading localized provides insights into hemodynamic alterations induced hyperlipidemia, highlighting importance considering systemic health parameters ocular disease research treatment.

Synapse formation within the retinal circuit ensures that distinct neuronal types can communicate efficiently to process visual signals. Synapses thus form core of computations performed by circuit. Retinal synapses are diverse but be broadly categorized into multipartner ribbon and 1:1 conventional synapses. In this article, we review our current understanding cellular molecular mechanisms regulate functional establishment mammalian synapses, including role adhesion proteins, synaptic extracellular matrix cytoskeletal-associated activity-dependent cues. We outline future directions areas research will expand knowledge these mechanisms. Understanding regulators moderating synapse function not only reveals integrated developmental processes establish circuits, also divulges identity could engaged during disease degeneration.

Changes in synaptic strength across timescales are integral to algorithmic operations of neural circuits. However, pinpointing loci that undergo plasticity intact brain circuits and delineating contributions circuit function remain challenging. The whole-mount retina preparation provides an accessible platform for measuring at specific synapses while monitoring circuit-level behaviors during visual processing ex vivo. In this review, we discuss insights gained from studies into the versatile roles short-term context-dependent functions. Plasticity single synapse level greatly expands algorithms common microcircuit motifs contributes diverse such as gain modulation, selective gating, stimulus-dependent excitatory/inhibitory balance. Examples retinal circuitry offer unequivocal support increases computational capacity hardwired circuitry.

Rod and cone photoreceptors degenerate in retinitis pigmentosa age-related macular degeneration, robbing the visual system of light-triggered signals necessary for sight. However, changes retina do not stop with photoreceptors. A stereotypical set morphological physiological changes, known as remodeling, occur downstream retinal neurons. Some aspects remodeling are homeostatic, structural or functional compensating partial loss inputs. other nonhomeostatic, corrupting information processing to obscure vision mediated naturally by surviving artificially vision-restoration technologies. In this review, I consider mechanism its consequences residual restored function; discuss role retinoic acid, a critical molecular trigger detrimental remodeling; strategies suppressing acid biosynthesis signaling therapeutic possibilities mitigating loss.

Abstract Sympathetic preganglionic neurons (SPNs) are the final output from central arm of autonomic nervous system. Therefore, SPNs represent a crucial component sympathetic system for integrating several inputs before driving postganglionic (PGNs) in periphery to control end organ function. The mechanisms which establish and regulate baseline tone overall excitability PGNs poorly understood. also known as motoneurons (MNs) they arise same progenitor line somatic MNs that innervate skeletal muscles. Previously our group has identified rich repertoire homeostatic plasticity (HP) embryonic chick following vivo synaptic blockade. Here, using model system, we examined whether exhibit similar capabilities MNs. Indeed, found after 2-d reduction excitatory input, showed significant increase intracellular chloride levels, mechanism underlying GABAergic scaling this This form HP could therefore play role early establishment setpoint part Next, asked expressed targets SPNs, PGNs. In case blocked input (48-h treatment), or acutely ex , however neither treatment induced adjustments PGN excitability. We discuss differences capacity between peripheral
