  4. The sublaterodorsal tegmental nucleus in the #brainstem is a center for #sleep control. This study shows that GABAergic neurons in this region suppress wakefulness, and that perturbing their activity level can regulate sleep attacks in a mouse #narcolepsy model.

  7. How does attention shape #AuditoryProcessing? This study shows that #attention enhances sound encoding only at the cortical level, not in #auditory periphery or #brainstem, so humans’ ability to focus on a single voice in noise relies on cortical mechanisms @PLOSBiology plos.io/4pY5L1f

  9. Early unilateral auditory deprivation can cause lasting spatial #hearing deficits. @k_anbuhl &co show that unilateral #HearingLoss during development (but not adult-onset) impairs binaural #brainstem function & spatial hearing acuity in guinea pigs @PLOSBiology plos.io/46njw1P

  11. Slow amplitude fluctuations in sounds, critical for #SpeechRecognition, seem poorly represented in the #brainstem. This study shows that overlooked intricacies of #SpikeTiming represent these fluctuations, reconciling low-level neural processing with #perception @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/3FJ4adI

  13. Finding a Master Immune System Controller

    'In a series of groundbreaking, elegant experiments ... a team led by Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator Charles Zuker has found that one controller of the immune system actually lies elsewhere—in the brain. The researchers showed that a group of nerve cells in the brainstem acts like a master controller or rheostat, sending and receiving signals from vagal neurons in the body to either boost inflammation or dial it down. '
    ...
    'The first big question for Zuker’s group, therefore, was whether the brain really does respond to signals from the immune system. To find out, his team injected mice with a known immune stimulant, lipopolysaccharide, then searched the mouse brain to see if any specific areas were being activated by the signal. The quest was like “looking for a needle in a haystack,” says Medzhitov. But it worked. The researchers pinpointed an area of the brainstem called the caudal nucleus of the solitary tract. That was “extraordinarily exciting,” recalls Hao Jin, a postdoctoral fellow in Zuker’s lab who led these studies. Previous work by Zuker’s team had shown that this area of the brain received other body-brain signals up the vagus nerve highway. '

  16. "Together, these findings suggest that #seizure activity in a focal subregion of the #amygdala is sufficient to suppress breathing and air hunger for prolonged periods of time in the #postictal period, likely via #brainstem and insula sites involved in #chemosensation and #interoception."
