Reconnecting through dissociation: a 5-month follow-up case study on ketamine-assisted psychotherapy for anorexia nervosa

Journal of Eating Disorders
Introduction Ketamine, an N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist, has demonstrated rapid antidepressant effects at sub-anesthetic doses, making it a promising candidate for treatment-resistant mood disorders, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder ...

A walk through tau therapeutic strategies

Acta Neuropathologica Communications, 2019
Tau neuronal and glial pathologies drive the clinical presentation of Alzheimer’s disease and related human tauopathies. There is a growing body of evidence indicating that pathological tau species can travel from cell to cell and spread the pathology ...

Circuits and Synapses: Hypothesis, Observation, Controversy and Serendipity – An Opinion Piece

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2021
More than a century of dedicated research has resulted in what we now know, and what we think we know, about synapses and neural circuits. This piece asks to what extent some of the major advances – both theoretical and practical – have resulted from ...

Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein Astrocytopathy Based on a Two‐Center Chinese Cohort Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Glial fibrillary acidic protein astrocytopathy (GFAP‐A) is a recently defined nosological form belonging to the class of autoimmune inflammatory disorders affecting the central nervous system (CNS). Here, we report the clinical and MRI characteristics, treatment, and prognosis of a GFAP‐A cohort from two centers in China.

AxonDeepSeg: automatic axon and myelin segmentation from microscopy data using convolutional neural networks [PDF]

, 2017
Segmentation of axon and myelin from microscopy images of the nervous system provides useful quantitative information about the tissue microstructure, such as axon density and myelin thickness. This could be used for instance to document cell morphometry

Post hoc analysis of ADAMANT, a phase 2 clinical trial of active tau immunotherapy with AADvac1 in patients with Alzheimer’s disease, positive for plasma p-tau217

Alzheimer’s Research & Therapy
Background The spread of tau pathology closely correlates with the disease course and cognitive decline in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Tau-targeting immunotherapies are being developed to stop the spread of tau pathology and thus halt disease progression ...

Discovery and Treatment of Action Potential‐Independent Myotonia in Hyperkalemic Periodic Paralysis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Hyperkalemic periodic paralysis (hyperKPP) is characterized by attacks of transient weakness. A subset of hyperKPP patients suffers from transient involuntary contraction of muscle (myotonia). The goal of this study was to determine mechanisms causing myotonia in hyperKPP.

Cas Adaptor Proteins Coordinate Sensory Axon Fasciculation. [PDF]

, 2018
Development of complex neural circuits like the peripheral somatosensory system requires intricate mechanisms to ensure axons make proper connections. While much is known about ligand-receptor pairs required for dorsal root ganglion (DRG) axon guidance ...

NMNAT1 inhibits axon degeneration via blockade of SARM1-mediated NAD+ depletion

eLife, 2016
Overexpression of the NAD+ biosynthetic enzyme NMNAT1 leads to preservation of injured axons. While increased NAD+ or decreased NMN levels are thought to be critical to this process, the mechanism(s) of this axon protection remain obscure.

Addressing Climate Change and the Role of Technological Solutions [PDF]

Human Geographies: Journal of Studies and Research in Human Geography, 2010
As far as sustainability is concerned, the role of technology has always been contested. With regard to environmental degradation, technology is either perceived to be part of the problem or part of the solution.
