Plumes of neuronal activity propagate in three dimensions through the nuclear avian brain

Abstract: BackgroundIn mammals, the slow-oscillations of neuronal membrane potentials (reflected in the electroencephalogram as high-amplitude, slow-waves), which occur during non-rapid eye movement sleep and anesthesia, propagate across the neocortex largely as two-dimensional traveling waves. However, it remains unknown if the traveling nature of slow-waves is unique to the laminar cytoarchitecture and associated computational properties of the neocortex.ResultsWe demonstrate that local field potential slow-waves and … Show more

“…Indeed, mammalian hippocampal sharp waves are recorded in the mammalian hippocampus, subiculum, and entorhinal cortex [ 10 ] and were not reported in birds (for review, see [ 48 ]). In contrast, slow waves have been recorded in most cortical regions in mammals [ 49 , 50 ] and birds, as well as in the avian DVR during anesthesia [ 51 ]. As HShWs were observed in all recorded regions in the tegu forebrain, this could suggest that reptilian HShWs could be a precursor form of avian and mammalian slow waves.…”

“…The ability to pharmacologically induce the brain rhythms normally associated with sleep states is of great interest for electrophysiologists. Interestingly, a number of anesthetics induce brain rhythms similar to those observed during natural sleep in mammals, and are thus a frequently used model for the study of sleep-related brain rhythms ( Steriade et al, 1993a , b , c ; Amzica and Steriade, 1995 ; Chauvette et al, 2011 ; Beckers et al, 2014 ; Van Der Meij et al, 2015 ; Tisdale et al, 2018 ). Studies under anesthesia allow the use of recording methods not suitable for use in naturally sleeping animals, such as intracellular recordings of neuronal membrane potentials.…”

“…Birds are of obvious interest for comparative studies given the presence of similar sleep states in both birds and mammals, and the absence of unequivocal evidence for similar sleep states in other phylogenetic groups ( Libourel and Herrel, 2016 ; Shein-Idelson et al, 2016 ; Tisdale et al, 2018 ). Relatively few studies have investigated EEG patterns under isoflurane or urethane anesthesia in phylogenetic groups outside of mammals ( Ookawa, 1967 ; Shibata and Kadono, 1970 ; Beckers et al, 2014 ; Tisdale et al, 2018 ). Under isoflurane anesthesia, zebra finches ( Taeniopygia guttata ) exhibit high amplitude, low frequency slow waves similar in form to those occurring during natural SWS ( Beckers et al, 2014 ).…”
