We describe a novel and very effective single-cell labeling method with unique advantages for revealing the axonal and dendritic fields of any extracellularly recorded neuron. This procedure involves… (More)

The thalamic reticular nucleus: structure, function and concept.

• Didier Pinault
• Brain research. Brain research reviews
• 2004

On the basis of theoretical, anatomical, psychological and physiological considerations, Francis Crick (1984) proposed that, during selective attention, the thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN) controls… (More)

N-methyl d-aspartate receptor antagonists ketamine and MK-801 induce wake-related aberrant gamma oscillations in the rat neocortex.

• 2008

BACKGROUND Single subanesthetic doses of ketamine, a non-competitive NMDA receptor (NMDAr) antagonist, induce cognitive impairment, schizophreniform psychosis, hallucinations, and exacerbate… (More)

Cellular interactions in the rat somatosensory thalamocortical system during normal and epileptic 5-9 Hz oscillations.

In Genetic Absence Epilepsy Rats from Strasbourg (GAERS), generalized spike-and-wave (SW) discharges (5-9 SW s(-1)) develop during quiet immobile wakefulness from a natural, medium-voltage, 5-9 Hz… (More)

NMDA receptor hypofunction leads to generalized and persistent aberrant gamma oscillations independent of hyperlocomotion and the state of consciousness.

• PloS one
• 2009

BACKGROUND The psychotomimetics ketamine and MK-801, non-competitive NMDA receptor (NMDAr) antagonists, induce cognitive impairment and aggravate schizophrenia symptoms. In conscious rats, they… (More)

The gamma-aminobutyric acid-ergic thalamic reticular nucleus (Rt), which carries matching topographical maps of both the thalamus and cortex and in which constituent cells can synaptically… (More)

Dysfunctional thalamus-related networks in schizophrenia.

• Didier Pinault
• Schizophrenia bulletin
• 2011

Thalamus abnormalities are common in neurological and psychiatric illnesses. Therefore, it is essential to understand the properties of the thalamus-related networks. The thalamic reticular nucleus… (More)

The absence epilepsies are characterized by recurrent episodes of loss of consciousness associated with generalized spike-and-wave discharges, with an abrupt onset and offset, in the thalamocortical… (More)

Medium-voltage 5-9-Hz oscillations give rise to spike-and-wave discharges in a genetic model of absence epilepsy: in vivo dual extracellular recording of thalamic relay and reticular neurons.

• Didier Pinault, M C Vergnes, C. Marescaux

• 2001

In humans with absence epilepsy, spike-and-wave discharges develop in the thalamocortical system during quiet immobile wakefulness or drowsiness. The present study examined the initial stage of the… (More)

Corticothalamic 5-9 Hz oscillations are more pro-epileptogenic than sleep spindles in rats.

• Didier Pinault, Andrea Slézia, László Acsády
