Stress hormone rapidly tunes synaptic NMDA receptor through membrane dynamics and mineralocorticoid signalling

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Stress hormones, such as corticosteroids, modulate the transmission of hippocampal glutamatergic synapses and NMDA receptor (NMDAR)-dependent synaptic plasticity, favouring salient behavioural responses to the environment.

Does It Matter What Keeps You Awake? Effects of Two Different Sleep Deprivation Methods on Object‐Location Memory and Hippocampal c‐Fos Expression in Mice

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In sleep research, various sleep deprivation methods have been used to examine the effects of sleep loss on memory. However, studies often overlook the distinct impacts each method may have on activity in specific neuronal circuits and memory storage.

The Protective Effects of Polygala tenuifolia and Tenuifolin on Corticosterone-Evoked Ferroptosis, Oxidative Stress, and Neuroinflammation: Insights from Molecular Dynamics Simulations and In Vitro Experiments

open access: yesFoods
Excessive stress is a well-established contributor to neurological damage, insomnia, and depression, imposing a significant burden on individuals and society. This underscores the urgent need for effective stress-relief strategies.

Seasonality in Reproduction and Reproductive Physiology of Caviomorphs

open access: yesMammal Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Animals experience seasonal fluctuations of photoperiod, food availability, temperature and precipitation. This affects their energy budget, often leading to seasonal reproduction. We review available literature and (re)‐analyse existing datasets on seasonal reproduction of South American caviomorph rodents that are characterised by long ...

Inhibitory Effect of NMDA Receptors in the Ventral Tegmental Area on Hormonal and Eating Behavior Responses to Stress in Rats

open access: yesBehavioural Neurology, 2014
Background. Stress and its consequences are among the causes of accidents. Objective. The effects of intraventral tegmental area (I-VTA) memantine on the plasma corticosterone and eating parameters disturbance induced by acute stress were investigated ...

A Novel Use of Pseudospectra in Mathematical Biology: Understanding HPA Axis Sensitivity [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
The Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis is a major neuroendocrine system, and its dysregulation is implicated in various diseases. This system also presents interesting mathematical challenges for modeling. We consider a nonlinear delay differential equation model and calculate pseudospectra of three different linearizations: a time-dependent ...

Neurogenomic landscape associated with status‐dependent cooperative behaviour

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract The neurogenomic mechanisms mediating male–male reproductive cooperative behaviours remain unknown. We leveraged extensive transcriptomic and behavioural data on a neotropical bird species (Pipra filicauda) that performs cooperative courtship displays to understand these mechanisms.
