Glycemic Challenge Is Associated With The Rapid Cellular Activation Of The Locus Ceruleus And Nucleus Of Solitary Tract: Circumscribed Spatial Analysis Of Phosphorylated Map Kinase Immunoreactivity, Arshad Khan
Selected Works Temporary Series
Rodent studies indicate that impaired glucose utilization or hypoglycemia is associated with the cellular activation of neurons in the medulla (Winslow, 1733) (MY), believed to control feeding behavior and glucose counterregulation. However, such activation has been tracked primarily within hours of the challenge, rather than sooner, and has been poorly mapped within standardized brain atlases. Here, we report that, within 15 min of receiving 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG; 250 mg/kg, i.v.), which can trigger glucoprivic feeding behavior, marked elevations were observed in the numbers of rhombic brain (His, 1893) (RB) neuronal cell profiles immunoreactive for the cellular activation marker(s), phosphorylated p44/42 MAP …

A Historical Perspective On Training Students To Create Standardized Maps Of Novel Brain Structure: Newly-Uncovered Resonances Between Past And Present Research-Based Neuroanatomy Curricula, Arshad Khan, Christina D'Arcy, Jeffrey Olimpo
A Historical Perspective On Training Students To Create Standardized Maps Of Novel Brain Structure: Newly-Uncovered Resonances Between Past And Present Research-Based Neuroanatomy Curricula, Arshad Khan, Christina D'Arcy, Jeffrey Olimpo
Selected Works Temporary Series
Recent efforts to reform postsecondary STEM education in the U.S. have resulted in the creation of course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs), which, among other outcomes, have successfully retained freshmen in their chosen STEM majors and provided them with a greater sense of identity as scientists by enabling them to experience how research is conducted in a laboratory setting. In 2014, we launched our own laboratory-based CURE, Brain Mapping & Connectomics (BMC). Now in its seventh year, BMC trains University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP) undergraduates to identify and label neuron populations in the rat brain, analyze their cytoarchitecture, and …

Computer Vision Evidence Supporting Craniometric Alignment Of Rat Brain Atlases To Streamline Expert-Guided, First-Order Migration Of Hypothalamic Spatial Datasets Related To Behavioral Control, Arshad Khan, Jose Perez, Claire Wells, Olac Fuentes
Computer Vision Evidence Supporting Craniometric Alignment Of Rat Brain Atlases To Streamline Expert-Guided, First-Order Migration Of Hypothalamic Spatial Datasets Related To Behavioral Control, Arshad Khan, Jose Perez, Claire Wells, Olac Fuentes
Selected Works Temporary Series
The rat has arguably the most widely studied brain among all animals, with numerous reference atlases for rat brain having been published since 1946. For example, many neuroscientists have used the atlases of Paxinos and Watson (PW, first published in 1982) or Swanson (S, first published in 1992) as guides to probe or map specific rat brain structures and their connections. Despite nearly three decades of contemporaneous publication, no independent attempt has been made to establish a basic framework that allows data mapped in PW to be placed in register with S, or vice versa. Such data migration would allow …
