ABSTRACT Brown and beige adipocytes dissipate energy as heat, yet effective strategies to enhance their mitochondrial efficiency remain limited. Here, we identify Agnuside (AGN) as a selective stabilizer of the complex I assembly factor NDUFAF6. AGN directly binds cytosolic NDUFAF6, suppresses its ubiquitination, prolongs its half‐life, and facilitates

Fear Potentiated Startle and the Effects of Losartan on Extinction Learning
Background – PTSD is a chronic and debilitating mental illness with limited available treatments. New medications, including Angiotensin Type 1 Receptor inhibitors, have been found to improve extinction learning retention in rodents and could be a means ...

Impaired Synaptic Plasticity in a Rodent Model of Intimate Partner Violence‐Related Brain Injury
ABSTRACT Intimate partner violence‐related brain injury (IPV‐BI) predominantly affects women and often reflects both structural trauma from mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), as well as ischemia/hypoxia from non‐fatal strangulation (NFS). This polytrauma can impair cognitive function, particularly learning and memory processes, which may contribute to

CRF1 and CRF2 receptors are required for potentiated startle to contextual but not discrete cues.
Corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) peptides and their receptors have crucial roles in behavioral and endocrine responses to stress. Dysregulation of CRF signaling has been linked to post-traumatic stress disorder, which is associated with increased ...

Social Fear Conditioning Paradigm in Virtual Reality: Social vs. Electrical Aversive Conditioning
In a previous study we could show that social fear can be induced and extinguished using virtual reality (VR). In the present study, we aimed to investigate the belongingness effect in an operant social fear conditioning (SFC) paradigm which consisted of

The amplitude of the acoustic startle response is reliably enhanced when elicited in the presence of bright light (light-enhanced startle) or in the presence of cues previously paired with shock (fear-potentiated startle).

Excitotoxic lesions in the central nucleus of the amygdala attenuate stress-induced anxiety behavior
The extended amygdala, composed by the amygdaloid nuclei and the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST), plays a critical role in anxiety behavior.
