Lutein and Brain Function [PDF]
Lutein is one of the most prevalent carotenoids in nature and in the human diet. Together with zeaxanthin, it is highly concentrated as macular pigment in the foveal retina of primates, attenuating blue light exposure, providing protection from photo-oxidation and enhancing visual performance.

Quantitative Sequencing Analysis of the Striatal Transcriptome in a Mouse Model of Alzheimer Disease [PDF]
Purpose The purpose of this study was to analyze the transcriptomic changes in the striatum of amyloid precursor protein/presenilin 1 (APP/PS1) transgenic mice and uncover its association with the methyl-CpG binding protein 2 (MeCP2) mediated-changes in ...

Two coral fluorescent proteins of distinct colors for sharp visualization of cell-cycle progression
We cloned and characterized two new coral fluorescent proteins: h2-3 and 1-41. h2-3 formed an obligate dimeric complex and exhibited bright green fluorescence. On the other hand, 1-41 formed a highly multimeric complex and exhibited dim red fluorescence.

Background: Non-motor symptoms in PD usually arise at very early stage and vary during the whole disease progression. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is considered as a highly efficient treatment option for PD's motor function. However, the effect of DBS on

Form and function in the brain
Neuroscientists, neurologists, and psychiatrists have all sought to visualise what is happening within the brain. What are the internal representations of the external world? What are the forms taken by our feelings, motivations, and memories? What structures actually turn all these sensations and cognitions into action—whether adaptive or maladaptive?

Leveraging the effector independent nature of motor imagery when it is paired with physical practice
While considered analogous to physical practice, the nature of imagery-based skill acquisition—specifically whether or not both effector independent and dependent encoding occurs through motor imagery—is not well understood.

Background: Malignant glioma is a lethal brain tumor that is highly resistant to standard therapy. Our research aims to explore the suppressive effects of nitidine chloride (NC) on gliomas and the mechanisms involved, showing that it is a potential agent
