Emerging Synaptic Molecules as Candidates in the Etiology of Neurological Disorders

open access: yesNeural Plasticity, 2017
Synapses are complex structures that allow communication between neurons in the central nervous system. Studies conducted in vertebrate and invertebrate models have contributed to the knowledge of the function of synaptic proteins. The functional synapse

Andrographolide Stimulates Neurogenesis in the Adult Hippocampus

open access: yesNeural Plasticity, 2015
Andrographolide (ANDRO) is a labdane diterpenoid component of Andrographis paniculata widely used for its anti-inflammatory properties. We have recently determined that ANDRO is a competitive inhibitor of glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β), a key ...

Transcriptomic signatures and network-based methods uncover new senescent cell anti-apoptotic pathways and senolytics. [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS J
This study identifies new senescent cell antiapoptotic pathways (SCAPs) by analyzing transcriptomic signatures and co‐expression networks. We uncover novel antiapoptotic pathways, called SCAPs, and propose potential senolytic drugs, including Fluorouracil, which targets key SCAPs.

Tet3-mediated DNA demethylation is essential for maintaining the dedifferentiation capacity of mammalian Müller glia [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience
Müller glia (MG) are retinal resident cells with diverse functions, including reprograming and regeneration in certain species. While the mammalian retina possesses molecular mechanisms for MG dedifferentiation and neuronal differentiation, it fails to ...

Capsaicin: beyond TRPV1 [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition
Capsaicin, the chili-pungent compound, has a peculiar chemical structure that allows it to impact mammalian physiology. Besides its classical effects through activating the Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1), growing experimental ...

The core genetic drivers of chronological aging in yeast are universal regulators of longevity [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobial Cell
The chronological lifespan of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has significantly contributed to our understanding of aging in eukaryotic cells. However, gaining a genome-wide perspective of this trait remains challenging due to substantial discrepancies observed

Morphological neurite changes induced by porcupine inhibition are rescued by Wnt ligands

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2021
Background Wnt signaling plays key roles in cellular and physiological processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation and migration during development and tissue homeostasis in adults. This pathway can be defined as Wnt/β-catenin-dependent or β-

Disruption of Glucose Metabolism in Aged Octodon degus: A Sporadic Model of Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2021
Alzheimer's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder and the most common cause of dementia. Although transgenic Alzheimer's disease (AD) animal models have greatly contributed to our understanding of the disease, therapies tested in these ...

The linkage between inflammation and fibrosis in muscular dystrophies: The axis autotaxin–lysophosphatidic acid as a new therapeutic target?

open access: yesJournal of Cell Communication and Signaling, Volume 15, Issue 3, Page 317-334, September 2021., 2021
Abstract Muscular dystrophies (MDs) are a diverse group of severe disorders characterized by increased skeletal muscle feebleness. In many cases, respiratory and cardiac muscles are also compromised. Skeletal muscle inflammation and fibrosis are hallmarks of several skeletal muscle diseases, including MDs. Until now, several keys signaling pathways and
