Abstract:
The evolutionary origin of the nervous system has been a matter of long-standing debate. This is due to the different perspectives taken. Earlier studies addressed nervous system origins at the cellular level. They focused on the selective advantage of the first neuron in its local context, and considered vertical sensory-motor reflex arcs the first nervous system. Later studies emphasized the value of the nervous system at the tissue level. Rather than acting locally, early neurons were seen as part of an elementary nerve net that enabled the horizontal coordination of tissue movements. Opinions have also differed on the nature of effector cells. While most authors have favoured contractile systems, others see the key output of the incipient nervous system in the coordination of motile cilia, or the secretion of antimicrobial peptides. I will discuss these divergent views and explore how they can be validated by molecular and single-cell data. From this survey, possible consensus emerges: (i) the first manifestation of the nervous system likely was a nerve net, whereas specialized local circuits evolved later; (ii) different nerve nets may have evolved for the coordination of contractile or cilia-driven movements; (iii) all evolving nerve nets facilitated new forms of animal behaviour with increasing body size.This article is part of the theme issue ‘Basal cognition: multicellularity, neurons and the cognitive lens’.

Abstract:
Somatostatin is a neuropeptide found throughout the brain. Several studies have established its anatomical distribution as being quite heterogenous with relatively high concentrations appearing in the limbic and striatal systems. Presently, very little is known about the functions of somatostatin systems in the brain and how they interact with other transmitter systems. The following report is a summary of experiments undertaken to assess the functional and chemical interactions of somatostatin with other neurotransmitter systems. Previous studies have established that the dopaminergic inputs to the basal ganglia are important for locomotor activity and reward. These systems have also been implicated in several mental and neural diseases such as schizophrenia, depression, and Parkinson’s disease. In the first experiment, interactions between dopamine and somatostatin systems were examined using paradigms involving behavioural responses to dopamine agonists. Depletion of somatostatin levels by the drug cysteamine was found to attenuate amphetamine- and apomorphine-mediated motor behaviours but not the reinforcing aspects of amphetamine. The second experiment attempted to further characterize the nature of the dopamine-somatostatin interaction by examining the effects of haloperidol, a dopamine antagonist, on central somatostatin levels. Short term treatment with haloperidol decreased striatal somatostatin levels. Long term treatment (8 months) with haloperidol failed to alter somatostatin levels in the caudate-putamen. Since somatostatin levels appear to be normal in Parkinsonian brains, the effects of MPTP poisoning in mice on central somatostatin levels was also studied to examine the accuracy of this animal model of Parkinson's disease and examine the effects of dopaminergic lesions on somatostatin levels. The results of this experiment indicate that MPTP causes a dose dependent increase in nigral somatostatin levels without altering striatal or cortical levels. These results are in partial disagreement with results obtained from both post-mortem Parkinsonian brains and primates given MPTP, thereby questioning the accuracy of this mouse model of Parkinson's disease. The final experiment examined the effects of the anticonvulsant-antidepressant carbamazepine on central somatostatin levels in the rat. Although the chemical mechanisms responsible for the therapeutic effects of carbamazepine are unknown, previous studies have suggested that its efficacy in the treatment of both manic-depression and epilepsy may be associated with the ability of this drug to reduce the abnormal somatostatin levels observed in these diseases. In this experiment, neither acute, chronic, nor withdrawal from chronic treatment with carbamazepine were found to alter the levels of somatostatin in rats. The lack of effects of carbamazepine on basal somatostatin levels may indicate somatostatin cells are susceptible to carbamazepine only under pathological situations. Together, these results are discussed in the context of recent observations of abnormal somatostatin levels in several diseases of the central nervous system and provide some insight into the interactions and functions of somatostatin systems in the normal and abnormal brain.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract The arm includes a large number of nerve fibres that transfer information between the central nervous system and the receptors, muscles and glands of the arm. In the nervous system there is continuous traffic. At rest, when only the receptors send information continuously towards the central nervous system, the traffic is not as intensive as during stress, e.g. during movements of the arm, when the central nervous system sends information towards the muscles, as well. From an information and communication engineering perspective the nervous system of the arm is an information channel, the other end of which is in the central nervous system and the other end at the periphery of the arm. One principal question about such a communication system is what the maximum information transmission capacity of the channel is, e.g. how the information channel is dimensioned. The arm is a highly complex system with over sixty muscles moving it, and a huge number of sensory receptors in it. Nature has dimensioned the information channel of the arm to satisfy the requirements of the nervous system. In this thesis a specific mathematical model is built in order to evaluate the maximum information transmission capacity of the nervous system of the arm. The model handles the nervous system of the arm as an entity in the light of information theory. The model uses the physiological and functional properties of the nervous system of the arm as the input and gives the estimate of the maximum information transmission capacity as the output. The modelling yielded the result that the maximum information transmission capacity of the arm is about 10 Mbit/s. Hence, if a complete neural prosthesis of the arm were built, a single USB bus (12 Mbit/s) would suffice as a communication channel for each arm. The mathematical model developed can also be applied to other parts of the peripheral nervous system. The aim of future research is to apply the developed model comprehensively to the human peripheral nervous system and to estimate the maximum information transmission capacity of the whole human peripheral nervous system.

Abstract:
In vertebrates, it has been established that interactions exist between the immune system, the nervous system, and behavior. A comparative examination of these interactions in other animals helps us understand the evolution of this interaction. It may also be possible to develop animal models of important human pathologies, which are due to the interactions between these two systems. In insects an immune-behavioral interactions similar to those seen in vertebrates has been shown to exist. This suggests that this interaction has a highly conserved function. For example, activation of immune response produces illness-induced anorexia, behavioral fever, changes in reproductive behavior, and decreased learning ability in different species. This thesis establishes further examples of this interaction between the immune and nervous system, examines the physiological basis between them and explores the evolutionary dynamics of the interaction. I establish this interaction between the immunity and memory in bumblebees in a free flying paradigm, where previously it had only been shown in artificial classical conditioning assays. Then, I checked the immunity of different bumblebee colonies of known learning ability to identify any evolutionary relationship between these two traits. I used Drosophila melanogaster to study the sleep phenomenon after activation of the immune system as a potential intermediary between immunity and memory. Finally, I checked the olfactory learning of Drosophila melanogaster after activating their immune system to see if the fruit fly would make a useful model for immune modulated memory reduction.

Abstract:
The research presented in this thesis examines the area of control systems for robots or animats (animal-like robots). Existing systems have problems in that they require a great deal of manual design or are limited to performing jobs of a single type. For these reasons, a better solution is desired. The system studied here is an Artificial Nervous System (ANS) which is biologically inspired; it is arranged as a hierarchy of layers containing modules operating in parallel. The ANS model has been developed to be flexible, scalable, extensible and modular. The ANS can be implemented using any suitable technology, for many different environments. The implementation focused on the two lowest layers (the reflex and action layers) of the ANS, which are concerned with control and rhythmic movement. Both layers were realised as Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) which were created using Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs). The task of the reflex layer was to control the position of an actuator (such as linear actuators or D.C. motors). The action layer performed the task of Central Pattern Generators (CPG), which produce rhythmic patterns of activity. In particular, different biped and quadruped gait patterns were created. An original neural model was specifically developed for assisting in the creation of these time-based patterns. It is shown in the thesis that Artificial Reflexes and CPGs can be configured successfully using this technique. The Artificial Reflexes were better at generalising across different actuators, without changes, than traditional controllers. Gaits such as pace, trot, gallop and pronk were successfully created using the CPGs. Experiments were conducted to determine whether modularity in the networks had an impact. It has been demonstrated that the degree of modularization in the network influences its evolvability, with more modular networks evolving more efficiently.

Abstract:
Betanodaviruses are causative agents of viral nervous necrosis (VNN), a devastating disease of cultured marine fish worldwide. Betanodavirus (BTN) genome is composed of two single-stranded, positive-sense RNA molecules. The larger genomic segment, RNA1 (3.1 kb), encodes the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, while the smaller genomic segment, RNA 2 (1.4kb), encodes the coat protein. This structural protein is the host-protective antigen of VNN which assembles to form virus-like particles (VLPs). BTNs are classified into four genotypes, designated red-spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV), barfin flounder nervous necrosis virus (BFNNV), tiger puffer nervous necrosis virus (TPNNV), and striped jack nervous necrosis virus (SJNNV), based on phylogenetic analysis of the coat protein sequences. RGNNV type is quite important as it has a broad host-range, infecting warm-water fish species. At present, there is no commercial vaccine available to prevent VNN in fish. The general goal of this research was to develop oral fish vaccines in yeast and red microalgae (Porphyridium sp.) against the RGNNV genotype. To achieve this, we planned to clone and sequence the coat protein gene of RGNNV, express the coat protein gene of RGNNV in yeast and red microalgae and evaluate the immune response in fish fed with recombinantVLPs antigens produced in yeast and algae. The collaboration between the Israeli group and the US group, having wide experience in red microalgae biochemistry, molecular genetics and large-scale cultivation, and the development of viral vaccines and eukaryotic protein expression systems, respectively, was synergistic to produce a vaccine for fish that would be cost-effective and efficacious against the betanodavirus infection.

Abstract:
The auroral activity indices AU, AL, AE, introduced into geophysics at the beginning of the space era, although they have certain drawbacks, are still widely used to monitor geomagnetic activity at high latitudes. The AU index reflects the intensity of the eastern electric jet, while the AL index is determined by the intensity of the western electric jet. There are many regression relationships linking the indices of magnetic activity with a wide range of phenomena observed in the Earth's magnetosphere and atmosphere. These relationships determine the importance of monitoring and predicting geomagnetic activity for research in various areas of solar-terrestrial physics. The most dramatic phenomena in the magnetosphere and high-latitude ionosphere occur during periods of magnetospheric substorms, a sensitive indicator of which is the time variation and value of the AL index. Currently, AL index forecasting is carried out by various methods using both dynamic systems and artificial intelligence. Forecasting is based on the close relationship between the state of the magnetosphere and the parameters of the solar wind and the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF). This application proposes an algorithm for describing the process of substorm formation using an instrument in the form of an Elman-type ANN by reconstructing the AL index using the dynamics of the new integral parameter we introduced. The use of an integral parameter at the input of the ANN makes it possible to simulate the structure and intellectual properties of the biological nervous system, since in this way an additional realization of the memory of the prehistory of the modeled process is provided.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: Does Alpha-Lipoic acid increase the uptake of glucose for better glycaemic control? Does vitamin B12 and Alpha-Lipoic acid improve inflammation? The aim of the study is to explore the effectiveness of Vitamin B12 and Alpha-Lipoic Acid as a possible treatment for diabetic neuropathy with major emphasis on markers of inflammation and glucose metabolism. Condition being studied: Diabetic Neuropathy (DN) is a heterogeneous type of nerve damage associated with diabetes mellitus, the condition most often damages nerves in the legs and feet. It presents both clinically and sub-clinically affecting the peripheral nervous system as a result of an increase in glucose concentration which interferes with nerve signalling. After the discovery of insulin as a treatment for Diabetes Mellitus (DM), the prevalence of DN has since increased significantly due to DM patients having a longer life expectancy. It has been estimated that atleast 50% of DM patients will develop DN in their life, with approximately 20% of these patients experiencing neuropathic pain. Nerves are susceptible to changes in glucose concentrations and insulin makes it impossible for neurons to continue regulating glucose uptake.
