Repeated Administration of Norbinaltorphimine Produces Cumulative Kappa Opioid Receptor Inactivation
Kappa receptor activation by dynorphins contributes to the anxiogenic, dysphoric, and cognitive disrupting effects of repeated stress, suggesting that kappa receptor antagonists might have therapeutic utility in the treatment of stress disorders.

Afferent Neuronal Control of Type-I Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone Neurons in the Human. [PDF]
Understanding the regulation of the human menstrual cycle represents an important ultimate challenge of reproductive neuroendocrine research. However, direct translation of information from laboratory animal experiments to the human is often complicated ...

Mitochondrial control of ciliary gene expression and structure in striatal neurons
Abstract figure legend Neurons drive animal behaviour by receiving and transmitting information and require energy, primarily supplied by mitochondria, to function. Additionally, neurons need to sense environmental changes to adapt, a function that is locally played by the primary cilia.

Dichotomous regulation of striatal plasticity by dynorphin
Modulation of corticostriatal plasticity alters the information flow throughout basal ganglia circuits and represents a fundamental mechanism for motor learning, action selection, and reward. Synaptic plasticity in the striatal direct- and indirect-pathway spiny projection neurons (dSPNs and iSPNs) is regulated by two distinct networks of GPCR ...

Abstract Revived interest in psychedelic‐assisted therapies has also renewed focus on ibogaine, a psychoactive alkaloid, for its notable anti‐addictive potential. Evidence from observational, open‐label, and limited randomized placebo‐controlled trials indicates that ibogaine and its metabolite noribogaine reduce craving and withdrawal symptoms in ...

The Opioid System in Temporal Lobe Epilepsy: Functional Role and Therapeutic Potential
Temporal lobe epilepsy is considered to be one of the most common and severe forms of focal epilepsies. Patients often develop cognitive deficits and emotional blunting along the progression of the disease.

Basolateral to Central Amygdala Neural Circuits for Appetitive Behaviors [PDF]
Basolateral amygdala (BLA) principal cells are capable of driving and antagonizing behaviors of opposing valence. BLA neurons project to the central amygdala (CeA), which also participates in negative and positive behaviors.

A Biological Model of Acupuncture and its Derived Mathematical Modeling and Simulations [PDF]
International audience(Aims) Acupuncture was employed since 2 millenaries, but the underlying mechanisms are not globally handled. The present study is aimed at proposing an explanation by pointing out involved processes and a convincing modeling to ...
