ABSTRACT Although much is known about the encoding of experience, how the brain organizes neural circuits capable of learning and memory formation is largely unstudied. Canonical critical periods emerge from a convergence of maturation‐ and experience‐dependent processes.

The reinforcing properties of nicotine depend partly on cholinergic projections from the pedunculopontine tegmental (PPTg) and laterodorsal tegmental (LDTg) nuclei to midbrain dopamine neurons in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) and substantia nigra pars

core
Theorized mechanism of dopamine homeostasis restoration in the nucleus accumbens core induced by a psychedelic intervention. Abstract Psychedelics have garnered great attention in recent years as treatments for major depressive disorder (MDD) and treatment‐resistant depression because of their ability to alter consciousness and afflicted cognitive ...

Theorizing Patriarchy Against a Backdrop of Workplace Sexism and Stress in UK Academia
ABSTRACT Our analysis investigates the distinct relationship between sexism and workplace stress as experienced by women academics in the UK higher education system. We argue that due to the insufficient literature on this issue there is a limited knowledge base of the harmful psychological effects of stress in the workplace upon women academics in the

Individual Differences in Error‐Related Brain Activity and Post‐Error Slowing in Children
During task switching, children produced longer error series and showed less post‐error slowing than adults. During and after errors, children showed increased activation in cingulate, insular, and prefrontal regions. Children's post‐error slowing and error‐related insular activation were associated with improved performance, indicating that error ...

High‐loading intensity of exercise (HLIE) disrupts HPC‐mPFC connectivity and hippocampal activity‐related transcriptomes, mediating cognitive deficits via glutamatergic neuron hyperactivation. Hippocampal glutamatergic neuron hyperactivation drives HLIE‐induced cognitive deficits, while targeted chemogenetic inhibition partly rescues cognitive function.

Dietary and biomarker‐guided strategies as supportive measures in the fragile X syndrome
Abstract The fragile X syndrome (FXS) is an inherited neurodevelopmental disorder that primarily affects males, often resulting in an IQ below 55, while about two‐thirds of females also experience intellectual disability. Physical features may include an elongated face, prominent ears, finger joint laxity, and enlarged testes in males.

Previous research suggests that the nonpeptide oxytocin receptor (OTR) agonist WAY 267,464 may only partly mimic the effects of oxytocin in rodents. The present study further explored these differences and related them to OTR and vasopressin 1a receptor (

Expression of the VIP/PACAP receptor gene, Vipr2, was selectively upregulated in the nucleus accumbens of spontaneous hypertensive rats (SHRs), an animal model of ADHD, with no changes observed in DNA methylation levels at the CpG islands of the gene. This region‐specific overexpression may contribute to ADHD‐related behaviors in SHRs.
