Restraint Stress Induced Hyperpermeability and Damage of the Blood-Brain Barrier in the Amygdala of Adult Rats

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2019
Intense or prolonged exposure to stress can damage various brain structures, including the amygdala and hippocampus, which are associated with emotional-cognitive functions. Furthermore, this deterioration has been linked to a myriad of neurodegenerative

Previously undocumented regional variability in crab‐eating macaque skull sexual dimorphism and its implications for biological and morphometric studies

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract In a large sample of adult crab‐eating macaques, we quantified sexual dimorphism in size, shape, and covariance across the whole skull and among anatomical regions of the cranium and mandible. All regions showed significant mean sex differences, but the magnitude of size and shape dimorphism varied substantially.

Microbiota-associated metabolite pantothenic acid enhances skeletal muscle contusion repair via epigenetic regulation of macrophage M2 polarization

Journal of Translational Medicine
Background The quality of skeletal muscle contusion repair hinges on the timely resolution of inflammation and the initiation of regeneration, processes in which M2 macrophage polarization plays a critical role.

Berberine Facilitates Extinction of Drug-Associated Behavior and Inhibits Reinstatement of Drug Seeking

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
A high rate of relapse is a major clinical problem among drug-addicted individuals. Persistent traces of drug-associated reward memories contribute to intense craving and often trigger relapse.

Hyperostosis frontalis interna: Observed patterns, prevalence, and dementia associations in older adults

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Hyperostosis frontalis interna (HFI) is a frequently underrecognized condition characterized by overgrowth of the frontal endocranium, most commonly observed in post‐menopausal women. Although its etiology remains unclear, hormonal influences and a possible relationship with neurocognitive changes have been proposed.

Body donor programs in Australia and New Zealand: Current status and future opportunities

Anatomical Sciences Education, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 301-328, March 2025.
Abstract Body donation is critical to anatomy study in Australia and New Zealand. Annually, more than 10,000 students, anatomists, researchers, and clinicians access tissue donated by local consented donors through university‐based body donation programs. However, little research has been published about their operations.

Essential embryology for the Canadian pathologists’ assistant

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Pathologists' assistants (PAs) are pivotal in healthcare, conducting autopsies and examining tissues under a pathologist's guidance. Embryology knowledge is crucial for PAs to accurately assess anomalies and identify pathologies. Yet, it is often overlooked in academic PA training programs.

Auditory Sensitivity in Autism: A Systematic Review of Mismatch Negativity and Mismatch Field Responses

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Auditory mismatch responses—mismatch negativity (MMN) and mismatch fields (MMF)—are well established electrophysiological markers of automatic auditory discrimination supported by short‐term sensory memory. These responses, typically elicited using passive oddball paradigms, are increasingly used to investigate sensory and language processing ...

Decoding temporal miRNA signatures of semen under in vitro exposure for forensic time since deposition estimation using machine learning‐driven modeling

Interdisciplinary Medicine
In forensic cases, the accurate prediction of time since deposition (TsD) for body fluids plays a critical role in evaluating the relevance of biological evidence to criminal cases and reconstructing the timelines of criminal events.

Metabolic fate of drugs of abuse and new psychoactive substances: A pilot study on a novel workflow using a zebrafish embryo model combined with human microdosing

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim The aim of this study was to develop a novel workflow to identify human urine biomarkers for drugs of abuse and new psychoactive substances. Metabolites of amphetamine, cocaine, LSD, MDMA, methamphetamine, THC, MDMB‐CHMICA, and MDPPP were first identified in a zebrafish embryo (ZE) metabolism study followed by comparison to most abundant human ...
