miles de problemas

neuronas vivas

lenguaje, quimica, arte

canto metricas de atake defensivas

bombas de saliva

formas sanas de llevar esta vida destructiva.

 

va cada uno con su cuento

suma esta resta

vida desonesta

es la ke nadie kiere tomar

pero si pagan bien por ella da igual

ya ke al final, cada cual

define el bien del mal.

 

maneras de sobrevivir

llorar y reir

dificil asunto esto de apegarse a existir

ya ke abrir tu boca puede concluir en morir

los policias no te kieren como amigo

y pieles de zorro se lucen como abrigos.

 

carne humana, huesos , desecho

ahora ke te recuerdo ke estas vivo sacale provecho

yo pegado mirando el techo

tu rutina es mas repugnante ke la ley y mis supuestos derechos.

 

choca mi paso con el tuyo

muerdes mi mente, se caen tus dientes

concluyo

si yo, bien nacido

sabor picante y por zeus maldecido

herido pero nunca vencido

liberado en la libertad ke me libera

una paloma de ciudad que vuela mucho mas alla de la frontera

siguen tirando basura

no ven ke el mundo se envenena

 

Neurone du striatum exprimant la protéine huntingtine mutante (en rouge) - à l’origine de la maladie de Huntington - qui s’accumule dans le noyau (bleu) pour former un agrégat composé de huntingtine et d’autres protéines dont l’ubiquitine (en jaune).

En savoir plus :

 

La maladie de Huntington est une pathologie héréditaire qui entraîne la dégénérescence de neurones impliqués dans des fonctions motrices, cognitives et psychiatriques. Les traitements actuels sont symptomatiques et soulagent certains troubles mais ne permettent pas de modifier le cours de la maladie. Des chercheurs de l’Inserm, de l’Université Grenoble Alpes et du CHU Grenoble Alpes au Grenoble Institut des Neurosciences espèrent y remédier. En 2021, ils proposent une nouvelle piste thérapeutique dans l’espoir de proposer aux patients un premier traitement protégeant les neurones, dans les années qui suivront. Ils ont testé une molécule thérapeutique qui présente des résultats prometteurs chez la souris et dont ils ont ensuite lancé l'évaluation préclinique. Ce travail est publié dans la revue Science Advances.

Nuclei of squirrel brain cortical neurons. These are oval shaped nuclei, possibly because the cells were a bit crushed during the preparation for imaging :P The Hoechst stain is coloring the substructures in the nucleus a pretty blue.

A member of the University of Oregon explains some of the properties of neurons and how our brains work during University Science Day exhibit at the Science Factory in Eugene, Oregon

Schwann cells lacking Rac1 are impaired in their ability to send cytoplasmic processes around axons and thus delay axon sorting and myelination. (JCB 177(6) TOC2)

Carla Shatz has spent her life asking a question that sounds simple but turns out to be profound: how does the brain build itself?

 

When you meet her, you sense the discipline behind that inquiry. She is composed and quietly exacting. Her focus is the kind that defines a scientific life. In conversation, she moves carefully, assembling ideas the way neurons assemble circuits, piece by piece, connection by connection.

 

Shatz transformed our understanding of brain development by showing that neural circuits are not merely laid down by a genetic blueprint. They are sculpted by activity. Even before experience floods in through the senses, the brain generates its own patterns of electrical signaling. Those patterns guide which connections are strengthened and which are pruned away. The brain rehearses its future. It refines itself through internal dialogue.

 

This idea shifted the field. Development was no longer a passive unfolding. It was dynamic, competitive, and alive. Neurons communicate, negotiate, and withdraw. They respond to timing and rhythm. In her work, the young brain is not a blank slate waiting to be written on. It is an active participant in its own formation.

 

Later, she uncovered another layer of complexity. Molecules once believed to belong solely to the immune system turned out to play critical roles in shaping synapses. The boundaries between systems blurred. Immunology and neuroscience began to overlap in ways few had anticipated. The implications stretch into our understanding of neurodevelopmental disorders and neurodegeneration. Connections that fail to refine properly can echo across a lifetime.

 

What stands out most is her intellectual courage. To propose that spontaneous neural activity guides wiring before sensory experience was to challenge prevailing assumptions. She followed the data where it led, even when it unsettled established frameworks. She has built institutions, led the Bio-X program at Stanford, and mentored generations of neuroscientists. Her influence radiates through both published papers and the people she has trained.

 

The brain, in her telling, is not fixed at birth. It is shaped by activity, by competition, and by molecular conversations between cells. It is sculpted over time. Carla Shatz has spent her career illuminating that delicate process. The story of how a brain forms is, after all, the story of how each of us comes into being.

There are micrographs from my undergrad days. My first published photographs. These are looking at the expression of BMP-7 in neurons cultured in the presence vs. absence of glia. (Though i guess technically this one is looking at RNA not protein.)

similar to the other picture but zoomed out. young neurons in pink line the inner edge of a tightly packed, 6-7 neuron deep structure called the dentate gyrus. their dendrites reach out to receive incoming information. the green cells are neurons that have just been "activated" when this mouse recalled a 1 week old memory. that the neurons involved in representing the memory (green) are not at the inner edge would suggest that the young neurons are not so involved in long-term memory retrieval/storage. unfortunately, broad and qualitative descriptions don't cut it and so thousands of cells must be quantified manually. gives one a good amount of time to catch up on all that music.

Nuclei of squirrel brain cortical neurons. The big faint circle is the nucleus, the bright blue ball in the middle is the nucleolus. There is both blue and green fluorescent staining in this picture but for these cells only the blue nuclear Hoechst stain is really visible.
