Abstract:
This literature review explores human mirror neurons from several angles. First it retells mirror neuron history, from the initial discovery in the macaque monkey research through to the experiments determining if there is a human brain homologue. Then the merits of two opposing evolutionary views – mirror neurons as an adaptation or an association, here referring to an adaptation’s byproduct – are discussed. Lastly the autistic mirror neuron dysfunction hypothesis – stating that a faulty mirror neuron system is at the basis of autistic behavioral patterns – is examined for its validity but ul

L’activité électrique des neurones est déterminée par des interactions complexes entre leurs propriétés morphologiques et biophysiques.

Abstract:
The microtubule cytoskeleton plays essential roles during cell division, migration, differentiation, defining cell morphology and organizing intracellular transport. The properties of microtubules, such as their stability, polarity and dynamics, are spatially and temporally regulated by several factors, including post-translational modifications, stabilizing/destabilizing MAPs, motors, kinases, phosphatases, etc. Many of these factors were identified in cycling cells and particularly during mitosis. Nevertheless, some bona-fide mitotic microtubule regulators are also expressed in differenti

Abstract:
One of the major aims of Systems Neuroscience is to understand how the nervous system transforms sensory inputs into appropriate motor reactions. In very simple cases sensory neurons are immediately coupled to motoneurons and the entire transformation becomes a simple reflex, in which a noxious signal is immediately transformed into an escape reaction. However, in the most complex behaviours, the nervous system seems to analyse in detail the sensory inputs and is performing some kind of information processing (IP).

Abstract:
Neurons and networks of the brain may use various strategies of computation to provide the neural substrate for sensation, perception, or cognition. To simplify the scenario, two of the most commonly cited neural codes are firing rate and temporal coding, whereby firing rates are typically measured over a longer duration of time (i.e., seconds or minutes), and temporal codes use shorter time windows (i.e., 1 to 100 ms). However, it is possible that neurons may use other strategies. Here, we highlight three methods of computation that neurons, or networks, of the brain may use to encode and/or

The most studied region in the mammalian brain for multisensory integration is the deep superior colliculus (DSC). Neurophysiological experiments have revealed many response properties of DSC neurons, such as cross-modal enhancement (CME) and sub-additive/additive/super-additive op- erational modes. CME occurs when the response of a multisensory neuron to stimulation in one sensory modality is enhanced, often non-linearly, by temporally and spatially coincident stimulation of a second sensory modality. Response enhancement is frequently larger for weaker input stimuli than for stronger stimuli

Abstract:
Proline-Rich Transmembrane Protein 2 (PRRT2) has been identified as the single causative gene for a group of paroxysmal syndromes, including benign familial infantile seizures, paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia and migraine. Most of the mutations of this gene lead to a premature stop codon, generating an unstable form of mRNA or a truncated protein that is degraded, pointing out the loss of the PRRT2 function as pathogenic mechanism of action. In this thesis, we have used different approaches to investigate the pathophysiological function of PRRT2. An important role for PRRT2 in the neurotrans

Abstract:
Les exosomes sont des vésicules d’origine endosomale sécrétées par les cellules dans leur environnement après fusion à la membrane plasmique des endosomes multivésiculés. Les exosomes représentent un nouveau mode de communication entre les cellules en permettant un transfert direct de protéines, de lipides et d’ARN. L’objectif de ma thèse était d’étudier le rôle des exosomes dans la communication entre les neurones. Précédemment, le laboratoire a montré que les neurones sécrètent des exosomes de manière régulée par l’activité synaptique. Nous avons observé que les exosomes neuronaux ne sont en

Abstract:
The mammalian neocortex is an exquisite, highly organized brain structure composed of hundreds of subpopulations of neurons and glia, precisely connected to enable motor control, sensory perception, information integration, and planning. Unique molecular, structural, and anatomical neuronal properties underlie diverse functionality, endowing much of the neocortex’s complex processing power. Neocortical size correlates with information processing capacity, suggesting that increased neuronal number and diversity begets increased sophistication. One excitatory projection neuron type, callosal pro
