    Rare neurons discovered in monkey brains

    Henry Evrard neuroanatomist at the Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics in Tübingen Germany now discovered that von Economo neurons VEN occur in the insula of macaque monkeys. The morphology size and distribution of the monkey VEN suggest that it is at least a primal anatomical homolog of the human VEN. This finding offers new and much-needed opportunities to examine in detail the connections and functions of a cell and brain region…

    Seeing movement: Why the world in our head stays still when we move our eyes

    When observing a fly buzzing around the room and following it around with the eyes, we ought to have the impression that it is not the fly, but rather the space that lies behind it that is moving. After all, the fly is always fixed in our central point of view. But how does the brain convey the impression of a fly in motion in a motionless field? With the help of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scientists from the Werner Reichardt…

    Calcium channels – about channel proteins and why we forget things

    The controlled transport of calcium across cell membranes is crucial for many biological processes including the transfer of information into the brain kidney function and the rhythmic activity of the heart muscle. A team led by Prof. Dr. Norbert Klugbauer at the University of Freiburg is focused on elucidating the function of calcium channels the proteins that regulate them and the effects on learning and memory. The researchers are…

    When the “second brain” fails – therapeutic options from the field of regenerative medicine

    Researchers from the Center for Regenerative Biology and Medicine ZRM in Tübingen are focused on the enteric nervous system of the gastrointestinal tract with the aim of developing cell-based therapies for the treatment of bowel diseases. The researchers are working with local partners in a BMBF-funded project that is seeking to develop therapies for Hirschsprung’s disease.

    Regenerative medicine makes use of patients’ own resources

    Regenerative medicine offers new therapeutic options for many diseases in which organ function or structure are damaged or lost. The majority of regenerative therapies involve cell-based methods that are often combined with innovative biomaterials. Regenerative therapies combine know-how from the biosciences with state-of-the-art medical technology and also benefit from progress in the engineering and material sciences.

    Processing of olfactory cues in the brain

    The question as to how the brain produces useful information from the electrical stimuli coming from the sensory organs is a key issue in the neurosciences. Researchers from Heidelberg are investigating how mice discriminate odours and have shown that complex behaviour emerges from the properties of cells and molecules. Using highly specific genetic manipulations for their experiments, the researchers have been able to show that inhibitory…

    A strange combination: green tea extract and light for treating Alzheimer’s

    Andrei Sommer from the University of Ulm and colleagues from Ulm, Heidelberg and Berlin have succeeded in reducing amyloid beta deposits in human neuroblastoma cells by up to 60 per cent in vitro. The researchers found that the apparently strange combination of green tea and red light has the potential to lead to the development of new therapies for Alzheimer’s. There are currently no treatments available that stop or reverse the progression of…

    Almut Köhler – cadherin-mediated cell adhesion and dispersion

    Cadherins ensure that cells within tissues are bound together. However this is only one side of the coin. Dr. Almut Köhler from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology KIT and her group of researchers are investigating a cadherin type that is even able to actively promote cell migration in developing frog brains and tumour tissue.

    Robots that move like ants, brain electrodes that alleviate symptoms of Parkinson’s, arm prostheses that can be controlled with pure thought power – over the last few years enormous progress has been made in the neurosciences and there has been an increasing shift from pure basic to applied research. There is a great deal of creativity in applied research in Baden-Württemberg. Nevertheless, basic research in the southwest of Germany has never…

    Parkinson’s disease – a fatal cycle of falling and rising activity in the basal ganglia

    As the disease progresses Parkinsons patients find it increasingly difficult to voluntarily control body movements. The disease is associated with oscillations of electrical activity in specific brain areas known as basal ganglia. Dr. Arvind Kumar and his colleagues at the Bernstein Center Freiburg have used neuronal network simulations to develop a model to explain these rhythmic oscillations.

    Towards a Therapy to Healing Stroke

    The thalamus is the central translator in the brain: Specialized nerve cells (neurons) receive information from the sensory organs, process it, and transmit it deep into the brain. Researchers from the Institute of Toxicology and Genetics (ITG) of KIT have now identified the genetic factors Lhx2 and Lhx9 responsible for the development of these neurons. Their results contribute to understanding the development of the thalamus. In the long term,…

    Simple nerve cells regulate swimming depth of marine plankton

    Scientists of the Max Planck Institute for Developmental Biology in Tübingen Germany have identified some signaling substances in the nervous system of larvae of the marine annelid Platynereis regulating the swimming depth. These substances influence the ciliary beating and thus hold the larvae in the preferred water depth. The scientists discovered a very simple circuitry of nerve cells underlying this regulation reflecting an early evolutionary…

    Review: Bernstein Conference 2011 – stories from the neurosciences

    The German National Bernstein Network for Computational Neuroscience (NNCN), a unique network of researchers working in the still young field of computational neuroscience, held this year’s annual meeting in Freiburg, a city in the south of Germany that is home to six German Bernstein Centers. Now in its 7th year, this year’s Bernstein Conference on Computational Neuroscience also addressed applied aspects of neurotechnology.

    Dr. Aristides Arrenberg from the University of Freiburg did his doctorate in the USA where he further developed a method that can be used to silence or activate specific zebrafish nerve cells at will. The method is based on light stimuli that trigger cellular switches. In addition the researchers have recently published an article on research into how eye movements are stored in the hindbrain.

    A close look at individual membrane receptors

    The majority of research groups around the world working on membrane receptors are concentrating on the interactions between the receptors and the signalling molecules in the interior of cells and each individual receptor tends to be seen as a black box.

    Claudia Stürmer: the growth and regeneration of nerve fibres

    Axons are the long, slender projections of nerve cells whose growth is governed by the intrinsic properties of neurons as well as by growth-promoting and growth-inhibiting molecules present in the neurons’ environment. In fish, the injured axons of the central nervous systems are able to regenerate. This is not the case in mammals, and therefore humans. A group of researchers led by Prof. Dr. Claudia Stürmer at the University of Konstanz is…

    Jost Leemhuis – Reelin signalling and psychiatric diseases

    The brain has a surprisingly well-ordered architecture. The layered structure of the mature cerebral cortex is formed during development. The neurons of these horizontal layers are important for the interplay of electrochemical impulses that enable us to think feel and remember. This layered structure depends on a molecule known as Reelin and other proteins that regulate the migration of neurons and their positioning in the developing brain. Dr.…

    The brain’s connectome – from branch to branch

    The human brain is the most complex of all organs, containing billions of neurons with their corresponding projections, all woven together in a highly complex, three-dimensional web. To date, mapping this vast network posed a practically insurmountable challenge to scientists. Now, however, a research team from the Heidelberg-based Max Planck Institute for Medical Research has developed a method for tackling the mammoth task. Using two new…
