Using a whole-brain fluorescence imaging technique developed at Janelia, scientists captured axons of pyramidal tract neurons leaving the motor cortex. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert! are not ...
Specific brain cells known as layer 5 pyramidal neurons play a vital role in how our brains process information. Research by the team of Prof. Joris de Wit (VIB-KU Leuven) and colleagues highlights ...
Pyramidal neurons are a very common type of neuron in the brain. Their cell bodies have a unique pyramidal shape that is the source of their name. They make up about two-thirds of all neurons in the ...
The recent report of an astrocytoma following the pyramidal tract (Dec. 7 issue) 1 was quite interesting. We report on the use of fludeoxyglucose F18 positron-emission tomography (PET) in the ...
Layer 5 pyramidal neurons play a critical role in integrating and distributing information across neural circuits in the brain. These neurons are found in the outer layers of the brain and are ...
