Consequences of the Lack of IL-10 in Different Endotoxin Effects and its Relationship With Glucocorticoids [PDF]

, 2019
Sepsis constitutes one of the major causes of death in ICUs. In sepsis induced by gram-negative, although lipopolysaccharide (LPS) initially induces an exacerbated secretion of proinflammatory cytokines leading to endotoxic shock and death resembling a ...

Synergistic Effects of Ginsenoside Rb3 and Rc From Panax notoginseng Leaf on Alleviating Neuroinflammation via PACAP in Depression

Food Frontiers, EarlyView.
EPL relieves depressive‐like behaviors by upregulating hippocampal PACAP via Rb3/Rc synergy, showing dual modulation of synaptic plasticity and neuroinflammation. ABSTRACT Panax notoginseng Leaf (PNL), an edible‐medicinal botanical resource, shows potential as functional ingredients for alleviating depression, owing to their unique saponin composition.

Stress response of fire salamander larvae differs between habitat types

Royal Society Open Science
The larvae of the European fire salamander (Salamandra salamandra) can inhabit two different habitats: streams and ponds. Streams are characterized by lower predation risks and higher food availability. Thus, ponds are considered a less suitable habitat.

Corticosterone enhances the potency of ethanol against hippocampal long-term potentiation via local neurosteroid synthesis

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015
Corticosterone is known to accumulate in brain after various stressors including alcohol intoxication. Just as severe alcohol intoxication is typically required to impair memory formation only high concentrations of ethanol (60mM) acutely inhibit long ...

Drinking in the Dark: Voluntary Co-consumption of Nicotine and Alcohol for Binge-like Drinking Behavior in Mice [PDF]

, 2019
Alcohol and nicotine are two of the most commonly abused drugs across the United States. Given the high rates of comorbidity, it remains a pressing public health concern to determine how the two drugs interact within the CNS, and how this impacts ...

Lifetime glucocorticoid profiles in baleen of right whale calves: Potential relationships to chronic stress of repeated wounding by Kelp Gulls [PDF]

, 2018
Baleen tissue accumulates stress hormones (glucocorticoids, GC) as it grows, along with other adrenal, gonadal and thyroid hormones. The hormones are deposited in a linear fashion such that a single plate of baleen allows retrospective assessment and ...

Corticosterone in Lymphoma-Bearing Rats.

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1963
SummaryCorticosterone in plasma and urine was determined by spectrofluorometry in sulfuric acid and by direct spectrophotometry in ethanol. Plasma levels and urinary excretion of corticosterone were elevated in rats with subcutaneous lymphomas. The high plasma concentration of corticosterone in these rats may help to explain the reduction in splenic ...

Corticosterone and decision-making in male Wistar rats: the effect of corticosterone application in the infralimbic and orbitofrontal cortex [PDF]

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2014
Corticosteroid hormones, released after stress, are known to influence neuronal activity and produce a wide range of effects upon the brain. They affect cognitive tasks including decision-making. Recently it was shown that systemic injections of corticosterone (CORT) disrupt reward-based decision-making in rats when tested in a rat model of the Iowa ...

Electroacupuncture reshapes the microbial co‐occurrence networks related to the behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia in Alzheimer's disease

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Microbial keystone species and gut microbiota composition are highly variable during the pathological development of the behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Age stratification reveals stage‐specific gut microbial signatures in AD‐related BPSD.
