Electroencephalographic spectral power as a marker of cortical function and disease severity in girls with Rett syndrome

open access: yesJournal of Neurodevelopmental Disorders, 2019
Background Rett syndrome is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by a mutation in the X-linked MECP2 gene. Individuals with Rett syndrome typically develop normally until around 18 months of age before undergoing a developmental regression, and the ...

The positive-negative mode link between brain connectivity, demographics, and behavior: A pre-registered replication of Smith et al. 2015 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
In mental health research, it has proven difficult to find measures of brain function that provide reliable indicators of mental health and well-being, including susceptibility to mental health disorders. Recently, a family of data-driven analyses have provided such reliable measures when applied to large, population-level datasets.

Impaired learning and memory generated by hyperthyroidism is rescued by restoration of AMPA and NMDA receptors function

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2022
Hyperthyroidism has been identified as a risk factor for cognitive disorders. The hippocampus is a key brain region associated with cognitive function, among which excitatory synapse transmission plays an important role in the process of learning and ...

Collapsin Response Mediator Protein 2 and Endophilin2 Coordinate Regulation of AMPA Receptor GluA1 Subunit Recycling

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2020
The dynamic trafficking of AMPA receptors (AMPARs), which enables the endocytosis, recycling, and exocytosis of AMPARs, is crucial for synaptic plasticity. Endophilin2, which directly interacts with the GluA1 subunit of AMPARs, plays an important role in

Towards Understanding Human Functional Brain Development with Explainable Artificial Intelligence: Challenges and Perspectives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The last decades have seen significant advancements in non-invasive neuroimaging technologies that have been increasingly adopted to examine human brain development. However, these improvements have not necessarily been followed by more sophisticated data analysis measures that are able to explain the mechanisms underlying functional brain development.
