科学家绘制与移动有关的脑区域图,使用狂犬病病毒将信号追踪到关键细胞。 Scientists map brain regions linked to movement, using a rabies virus to trace signals to key cells.

圣裘德儿童医院的科学家们制作了一张详细的大脑图,显示与V1中子直接相连的区域,即移动的关键细胞。 Scientists at St. Jude Children's Hospital have created a detailed brain map showing regions that connect directly to V1 interneurons, key cells for movement. 使用改良的狂犬病病毒, 他们追踪到这些细胞的信号, 创建了3D地图集, 帮助理解大脑如何 与脊髓进行沟通 以发挥运动功能。 Using a modified rabies virus, they traced signals to these cells, creating a 3D atlas that helps understand how the brain communicates with the spinal cord for motor function. 这项研究发表在Neuron上,可有助于发现新的运动障碍治疗方法。 This research, published in Neuron, could aid in discovering new treatments for movement disorders.
