BDNF Val66Met polymorphism and serum concentrations of BDNF with smoking in Thai males

Genetics and Molecular Research, 2013
Many studies have suggested that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is involved in the reward system of addiction, and that nicotine may induce alterations in BDNF gene expression and its protein level within the mesocorticolimbic system. We investigated the BDNF levels and biochemical-hematological parameters of smoker and non-smoker groups, and

A critical reappraisal of the carotid sinus and carotid bulb: Distinguishing neurohistological function from vascular geometry

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
This review redefines the carotid bulb (CB) as a variable geometric dilation shaped by hemodynamics and the carotid sinus (CS) as a conserved neurohistological baroreceptor field. Distinguishing these entities clarifies a century of anatomical confusion and links geometry, neurohistology, and clinical interpretation within a unified framework ...

Associations between brain-derived neurotrophic factor plasma levels and severity of the illness, recurrence and symptoms in depressed patients.

, 2010
Background: There is an increasing evidence that the Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) could be involved in the pathophysiology of mood disorders and that its peripheral levels may represent a reliable mirror of its concentration in the brain. The

Neurofilament light chain as in vitro and clinical biomarker of vincristine‐induced peripheral neuropathy

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Vincristine‐induced peripheral neuropathy (VIPN) is a common side effect in children and adolescents treated with vincristine. Assessing VIPN, especially in young children, is challenging due to a lack of sensitive tools. This limits our understanding of the nature and risk factors of VIPN. This study aimed to investigate neurofilament light chain

Distinct requirements for TrkB and TrkC signaling in target innervation by sensory neurons

, 2002
Signaling by brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) via the TrkB receptor, or by neurotrophin-3 (NT3) through the TrkC receptor support distinct populations of sensory neurons.

Role of the amygdala opioid system in the effects of stress on the post-learning sleep patterns of male Wistar rats [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences
Objective(s): Three physiological processes interact: sleep, learning, and stress. It is essential to understand how stress affects and interacts with the link between sleep, learning, and memory since it has long been recognized that sleep plays a ...
