The dopaminergic midbrain participates in human episodic memory formation: Evidence from genetic imaging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Recent data from animal studies raise the possibility that dopaminergic neuromodulation promotes the encoding of novel stimuli. We investigated a possible role for the dopaminergic midbrain in human episodic memory by measuring how polymorphisms in ...

Whole-Brain Confocal Imaging Provides an Accurate Global View of the Nigral Dopamine System

open access: yesDiagnostics
Clinicopathological studies and the effectiveness of dopaminergic replacement therapy establish that dopamine loss is the key pathology causing motor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease. The dopamine neurons that are impaired in Parkinson’s disease reside in

Regulation of Dopamine Uptake by Vasoactive Peptides in the Kidney

open access: yesScientifica, 2016
Considering the key role of renal dopamine in tubular sodium handling, we hypothesized that c-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) and Ang-(1-7) may regulate renal dopamine availability in tubular cells, contributing to Na+, K+-ATPase inhibition.

Extrusion Bioprinting for Wound Healing: Innovations in Functionalized Bioinks and Bioprinting Technology

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Extrusion‐based bioprinting (EBB) has emerged as a versatile biofabrication platform capable of precisely depositing bioinks composed of biomaterials, cells, and bioactive agents to generate patient‐specific, biomimetic skin constructs. This paper presents a state‐of‐the‐art and forward‐looking overview of EBB for wound healing, encompassing printing ...

Development of novel ligands influencing neurotransmission in the central nervous system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The development of novel drugs targeting GPCRs is of particular interest since modulation of subfamilies of this receptor class highly influences neurotransmission in the central nervous system.

3D‐Printed Corneal Substitutes: Materials, Fabrication, and Preclinical Progress

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Successful clinical translation of 3D‐printed corneal substitutes relies on the interplay between the bioink properties, cellular component, and the fabrication process. These factors influence the critical properties of the construct, including optical transparency, mechanical stability, suture retention, that ultimately govern long‐term stromal ...

Critical role of dopamine D3 receptor in structural plasticity generated by exposure to drugs of addiction in mesencephalic dopaminergic neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Dopamine plays a critical role in substance misuse and addiction. Recent view on the factors involved in the maintenance of drug taking indicates in structural plasticity of neuronal network controlling rewards and motivation one of the key cellular ...

Near‐Infrared‐Driven Metal–Organic Frameworks‐Based Nanorobots for Controlled Photothermal‐Chemical Therapy Synergistic Induction of Cancer Cell Death

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
To achieve efficient cancer cell death, a bowl‐shaped PDA@UiO‐66@DOX nanorobot drug‐delivery nanoplatform was developed. Near‐infrared irradiation not only drives the nanorobot to exhibit self‐thermophoretic motion and elevates temperature but also triggers Doxorubicin (DOX) release via hyperthermia, enhancing cancer cells uptake of DOX and thereby ...

Immediate early gene expression in the mesopontine tegmentum and midbrain after acute or chronic nicotine administration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The reinforcing properties of nicotine depend partly on cholinergic projections from the pedunculopontine tegmental (PPTg) and laterodorsal tegmental (LDTg) nuclei to midbrain dopamine neurons in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) and substantia nigra pars
