NADPH Oxidase 2-Mediated Insult in the Auditory Cortex of Zucker Diabetic Fatty Rats by Zheng-De Du, Wei Wei, Shukui Yu, Qing-Ling Song, Ke Liu, Shu-Sheng Gong

“…Protein expression of NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2) and its matching subunits P22phox, P47phox, and P67phox was increased in the auditory cortex of ZDF rats. Expression of 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), a marker of DNA oxidative damage, was also increased in the neuronal mitochondria of the auditory cortex of ZDF rats. …”

Modulation of Conflict Processing by Theta-Range tACS over the Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex by Albert Lehr, Niklas Henneberg, Tarana Nigam, Walter Paulus, Andrea Antal

“…In order to prove causality, in two experiments, we applied transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) at 6 Hz to the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) during Stroop task performance. Sham stimulation served as a control in both experiments; 9.7 Hz tACS served as a nonharmonic alpha band control in the second experiment. …”

Virtual Network Embedding: A Hybrid Vertex Mapping Solution for Dynamic Resource Allocation by Adil Razzaq, Markus Hidell, Peter Sjödin

“…This paper analyzes two existing vertex mapping approaches—one which only considers if enough node resources are available for the current VN mapping and one which considers to what degree a node already is utilized by existing VN embeddings before doing the vertex mapping. …”

Temporal–Spatial Acupuncture Effects on Poststroke Sensorimotor Cortex via Yanglingquan (GB34) by Ruoyi Liu, Yue Wang, Myadagbadam Boldbayar, Yuanyuan Li, Chen Chen, Xin Yu, Tianjiao Xu, Muzhao Zhang, Yihuai Zou, Hua Zhang

“…Hemiplegia is a common symptom after a stroke, and acupuncture at Yanglingquan (GB34) has been found to play a significant role in the treatment of poststroke hemiplegia. To explore motor cortex pathology and acupuncture’s immediate spatiotemporal effects on poststroke motor pathway impairment, 63 patients and 42 healthy subjects underwent three functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scans: resting-state, passive finger movement, and acupuncture at Yanglingquan points. …”

Prefrontal cortex contribution in transitive inference task through the interplay of beta and gamma oscillations by Fabio Di Bello, Valentina Mione, Pierpaolo Pani, Emiliano Brunamonti, Stefano Ferraina

“…To dig into the neural substrate driving TI cognitive processes, we examine the role of beta and gamma local field potential bands in the prefrontal cortex of 2 monkeys. During the inferential problem-solving period, we discover a tight link between beta and gamma bands modulation and TI complexity. …”

Different Modes of Pitch Perception and Learning-Induced Neuronal Plasticity of the Human Auditory Cortex by Michael Schulte, Arne Knief, Annemarie Seither-Preisler, Christo Pantev

“…We designed a melody perception experiment involving eight harmonic complex tones of missing fundamental frequencies (hidden auditory object) to study the short-term neuronal plasticity of the auditory cortex. In this experiment, the fundamental frequencies of the complex tones followed the beginning of the virtual melody of the tune “Frère Jacques”. …”
