Neurophysiological mechanisms of electroconvulsive therapy for depressionNobuo Kato
Department of Physiology, Kanazawa Medical University, Ishikawa 920 0293, Japan
Neurosci Res 64:3-11. 2009..The possibility is discussed that clinical effects of ECT are exerted at least partly by reducing neural excitability and modifying synaptic plasticity...
Application of caffeine reveals input frequency-dependent determination of signal-traveling routes between primary and secondary visual cortices in ratsHiroshi Yoshimura
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Kanazawa Medical University, Uchinada cho, Ishikawa 920 0293, Japan
Neurosci Res 66:30-6. 2010....
Correlation between stimulation strength and onset time of signal traveling within the neocortical neural circuits under caffeine applicationHiroshi Yoshimura
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Kanazawa Medical University, Uchinada cho, Ishikawa 920 0293, Japan
Neurosci Res 70:370-5. 2011..These findings suggest that conversion of neural code from amplitude code to temporal code is inducible at the level of neocortical circuits in an N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor activity-dependent manner...
Increase in cortical pyramidal cell excitability accompanies depression-like behavior in mice: a transcranial magnetic stimulation studyPeng Sun
Department of Physiology and Medical Research Institute, Kanazawa Medical University, Ishikawa 920 0293, Japan
J Neurosci 31:16464-72. 2011....
Suppression of a neocortical potassium channel activity by intracellular amyloid-β and its rescue with Homer1aKenji Yamamoto
Department of Physiology, Kanazawa Medical University, Ishikawa 920 0293, Japan
J Neurosci 31:11100-9. 2011..These findings suggest that the suppression of BK channels by intracellular Aβ(1-42) is a possible key mechanism for early dysfunction in the AD brain, which may be counteracted by activity-dependent expression of Homer1a...
Influences of audio-visual environments on feelings of deliciousness during having sweet foods: an electroencephalogram frequency analysis studyHiroshi Yoshimura
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Kanazawa Medical University, Uchinada cho, Japan
Nutr Neurosci 14:210-5. 2011....
Suppression of synaptic plasticity by cerebrospinal fluid from anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis patientsQing Zhang
Department of Physiology, Kanazawa Medical University, Ishikawa, Japan
Neurobiol Dis 45:610-5. 2012..The present experiments firmly support the proposal that the anti-NMDAR encephalitis autoantibody is responsible for cognitive disorders like amnesia accompanying this disease...
Evaluations of dementia by EEG frequency analysis and psychological examinationHiroshi Yoshimura
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Kanazawa Medical University, Uchinada cho, Ishikawa, 920 0293, Japan
J Physiol Sci 60:383-8. 2010..Interestingly, as HDS-R decreases, the variability of rhythm patterns also decreases. These results suggest that a decrease in cognitive function might be related to a decrease in the ability to generate various cortical rhythm patterns...
Multiple tooth-losses during development suppress age-dependent emergence of oscillatory neural activities in the oral somatosensory cortexHiroshi Yoshimura
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Kanazawa Medical University, Uchinada cho, Ishikawa 920 0293, Japan
Brain Res 1224:37-42. 2008..These results suggest that sufficient neural inputs from the teeth and tooth-related organs during developmental periods are essential for maturation of neural functions in the OSC...
Homer 1a suppresses neocortex long-term depression in a cortical layer-specific mannerYoshifumi Ueta
Department of Physiology, Kanazawa Medical University, 920 0293 Ishikawa, Japan
J Neurophysiol 99:950-7. 2008..These results indicate that both exo- and endogenous Homer 1a suppressed LTD in a cortical layer-specific manner, and its layer-specificity may be explained by the high affinity of Homer 1a to group I mGluRs...
