Analysis of FGF-Dependent and FGF-Independent Pathways in Otic Placode Induction
(Public Library Science, 2013-01-23)
The inner ear develops from a patch of thickened cranial ectoderm adjacent to the hindbrain called the otic placode. Studies in a number of vertebrate species suggest that the initial steps in induction of the otic placode ...
Endocranial morphology of Pygoscelis calderensis (Aves, Spheniscidae) from the Neogene of Chile and remarks on brain morphology in modern Pygoscelis
(Taylor & Francis, 2015)
The endocranial anatomy of Pygoscelis calderensis, a fossil species from the Bahı´a Inglesa Formation (Middle Miocene–
Pliocene) of Chile, South America, was described through CT scans. Reconstructions of the fossil P. ...
Hearing from the ocean and into the river: The evolution of the inner ear of Platanistoidea (Cetacea, Odontoceti)
(Paleontological Society, 2021-03)
The inner ear of the two higher clades of modern cetaceans (Neoceti) is highly adapted for hearing infrasonic (mysticetes) or ultrasonic (odontocetes) frequencies. Within odontocetes, Platanistoidea comprises a single ...
Neuropeptide Y in Rat Spiral Ganglion Neurons and Inner Hair Cells of Organ of Corti and Effects of a Nontraumatic Acoustic Stimulation
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2009)
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is an important neuromodulator found in central and peripheral neurons. NPY was investigated in the peripheral auditory pathway of conventional housed rats and after nontraumatic sound stimulation in ...
Paleoneuroanatomy of the European lambeosaurine dinosaur Arenysaurus ardevoli
(PeerJ, Inc, 2015-02-24)
The neuroanatomy of hadrosaurid dinosaurs is well known from North America
and Asia. In Europe only a few cranial remains have been recovered that include
the braincase. Arenysaurus is the first European endocast for ...
Braincase, neuroanatomy and neck posture of Amargasaurus cazaui (Sauropoda: Dicraeosauridae) and its implications for understanding head posture in sauropods
(Society of Vertebrate Paleontology, 2014-07-08)
The braincase of Amargasaurus cazaui from the Lower Cretaceous of Argentina represents the only dicraeosaurid sauropod neurocranial material known from South America. It has been CT scanned and three-dimensional digital ...
Comparative neuroanatomy of extinct horned turtles (Meiolaniidae) and extant terrestrial turtles (testudinidae), with comments on the palaeobiological implications of selected endocranial features
(Oxford University Press, 2017-08)
Turtles are one of the least explored clades of reptiles with respect to palaeoneuroanatomy. Few detailed descriptions of endocranial features such as the brain morphology or inner ear exist for extant and extinct forms. ...
Endocranial morphology of the primitive nodosaurid dinosaur Pawpawsaurus campbelli from the Early Cretaceous of North America
(Public Library of Science, 2016-03)
Background: Ankylosaurs are one of the least explored clades of dinosaurs regarding endocranial anatomy, with few available descriptions of braincase anatomy and even less information on brain and inner ear morphologies. ...
Neuroanatomy of the abelisaurid theropod Viavenator: The most complete reconstruction of a cranial endocast and inner ear for a South American representative of the clade
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018-03)
The type braincase of Viavenator exxoni (MAU-Pv-LI-530) was recovered complete and isolated from most of the other skull bones. Although the braincase is crossed by numerous fractures, using CT scans allowed the generation ...
