概括

通过皮质醇,急性压力通过扰乱内皮质网状细胞功能来损害空间导航 (路径集成). 这一发现可能解释了压力如何影响认知过程和神经疾病,如阿尔茨海默氏症.

科学领域:

神经科学是一个神经科学.
认知心理学认知心理学
压力研究压力研究

背景情况:

急性压力释放皮质醇,影响认知.
路径整合对于导航至关重要,它取决于脑内皮层的网格细胞.
内皮层对皮质醇的敏感性表明,压力可能会影响导航.

研究的目的:

为了研究皮质醇对人类路径整合的影响.
探索皮质醇对内皮质活动和网状表征的影响.
了解关联压力,导航和认知功能的神经机制.

主要方法:

39名健康男性在执行虚拟指导任务时接受了fMRI.
参与者在两个会议中接受了20mg的皮质醇或安慰剂.
用表示相似性分析来检查类似网格的表示.

主要成果:

皮质醇显著损害了路径整合性能.
脑内皮层的网状表征在皮质醇下减弱.
在地标的存在下,皮质醇增加了右尾状核的激活.

结论:

皮质醇会破坏路径的整合,可能是通过干扰脑内皮层的网格细胞功能.
电网细胞活动中的压力诱导的变化可能是导航中的认知障碍的基础.

Olfaction

Olfaction

The sense of smell is achieved through the activities of the olfactory system. It starts when an airborne odorant enters the nasal cavity and reaches olfactory epithelium (OE). The OE is protected by a thin layer of mucus, which also serves the purpose of dissolving more complex compounds into simpler chemical odorants. The size of the OE and the density of sensory neurons varies among species; in humans, the OE is only about 9-10 cm2.
The olfactory receptors are embedded in the cilia of the...
