TRPC4 ion channel protein is selectively expressed in a subpopulation of dopamine neurons in the ventral tegmental area [PDF]

, 2012
The nonselective cation channel TRPC4 has been shown to be present in high abundance in the corticolimbic regions of the brain and play a pivotal role in modulating cellular excitability due to their involvement in intracellular Ca2+ regulation. Recently we reported their involvement in socialization and regulating anxiety-like behaviors in rats. Given

G protein-coupled receptor dimerisation: molecular basis and relevance to function [PDF]

, 2007
The belief that G protein-coupled receptors exist and function as monomeric, non-interacting species has been largely supplanted in recent years by evidence, derived from a range of approaches, that indicate they can form dimers and/or higher-order ...

Dysfunctional play and dopamine physiology in the Fischer 344 rat

, 2011
Juvenile Fischer 344 rats are known to be less playful than other inbred strains, although the neurobiological substrate(s) responsible for this phenotype is uncertain.

Exploring biomarkers of neurodegeneration in epilepsy: Critical insights

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract The advent of biofluid biomarkers for neurodegenerative disorders has precipitated a surge in recent evidence regarding their role in epilepsy. In this literature review, we examine the diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic potential of several biomarkers, including amyloid‐beta (Aβ) protein, total (t‐tau), phosphorylated tau (p‐tau) protein,

A computational model revealing the effect of dopamine on action selection [PDF]

arXiv, 2015
In order to reveal the effect of nigrostriatal dopamine system on action selection, first a computational model of the cortex-basal ganglia-thalamus loop is proposed and based on this model a simple compound model realizing the Stroop effect is established.

Design Paradigms Based on Spring Agonists for Underactuated Robot Hands: Concepts and Application [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
In this paper, we focus on a rarely used paradigm in the design of underactuated robot hands: the use of springs as agonists and tendons as antagonists. We formalize this approach in a design matrix also considering its interplay with the underactuation method used (one tendon for multiple joints vs. multiple tendons on one motor shaft).

Dopamine agonists in the treatment of prolactinoma: are they still first choice?

Internal medicine journal (Print), 2011
Dopamine agonist therapy has been the cornerstone treatment for prolactinoma since the 1970s, replacing surgery in the primary management of this condition. These agents are effective in the management of prolactin excess, have a low side‐effect profile,

Drug delivery pathways to the central nervous system via the brain glymphatic system circumventing the blood‐brain barrier

Exploration, EarlyView.
The discovery of the glymphatic system has opened up a pathway for drug delivery to the brain by circumventing the blood‐brain barrier, which can effectively improve drug utilization. The methods of drug delivery through the glymphatic system include intrathecal injection, intranasal injection, and delivery through the meningeal lymphatic vessels.
