It has been proposed that secreted proNGF can elicit neuron death in a variety of neurodegenerative conditions, including Alzheimer's disease, following the observation of an increase of proNGF in the nucleus basalis of postmortem Alzheimer's brains.

This does appear to be the case, as lesions of the nucleus basalis did severely impair olfactory recognition of the lamb these ewes were not selective against foreign lambs, nor were they as apt at identifying their own lamb.

In 1971, he and Russell T . Richardson did experiments with monkeys to find out first groups of neurons ( nucleus basalis ), which are involved in the pathogenesis conditioned learning and they revealed the role played by the neurotransmitter acetylcholine.

For example, higher brain regions where language, memory and other cognitive functions reside are nourished by a chemical substance made in a small clump of cells, called the nucleus basalis, found deep in the brain just under each frontal lobe.

The interface between fetal and maternal components of the placenta is rather distinct : the decidua basalis ( maternal ) is separated from the chorionic villi by a cytotrophoblastic shell that is derived from fetal tissue ( the trophoblast ) and is several cells thick.

The nests of red-winged fairywrens rarely play host to brood parasites, though parasitism by the Horsfield's bronze cuckoo " ( Chrysococcyx basalis ) " and the fan-tailed cuckoo " ( Cacomantis flabelliformis ) " has been recorded.
37.
Maternal tissue only plays a role in support ( the maternal decidua basalis is the supportive structure to which the fetal placental component attaches ) and in placental circulation ( the spiral arteries of the maternal endometrium penetrate the developing chorionic villi and bathe the fetal tissue in maternal blood ).

In the flexed wing the remigiumturns posteriorly on the flexible basal connection of the radius with the second axillary, and the base of the mediocubital field is folded medially on the axillary region along the plica basalis ( bf ) between the median plates ( m, m') of the wing base.

""'Cephalotes basalis " "'is a species of arboreal ant of the genus " Cephalotes ", characterized by an odd shaped head and the ability to " parachute " by steering their fall if they drop off of the tree they're on.

Plants from western parts of its natural distribution area normally have narrower leaf blade lobes and narrower outer phyllaries, these plants have been segregated out as " C . wrightii " or as " C . basalis " var . " wrightii " in the past by some authorities.
