Hippocampal neurons isolated from rats subjected to the valproic acid model mimic in vivo synaptic pattern: evidence of neuronal priming during early development in autism spectrum disorders

open access: yesMolecular Autism, 2021
Background Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are synaptopathies characterized by area-specific synaptic alterations and neuroinflammation. Structural and adhesive features of hippocampal synapses have been described in the valproic acid (VPA) model ...

Adenosine A2A Receptor: A New Neuroprotective Target in Light-Induced Retinal Degeneration

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Continuous illumination induces the degeneration of photoreceptors. This animal model of light-induced retinal degeneration resembles many characteristics of human degenerative diseases of the outer retina, such as age-related macular degeneration.

Repurposing of Trimetazidine for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: A study in SOD1G93A mice

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 179, Issue 8, Page 1732-1752, April 2022., 2022
Background and Purpose Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a neurodegenerative disease characterized by the degeneration of upper and lower motor neurons, progressive wasting and paralysis of voluntary muscles and is currently incurable. Although considered to be a pure motor neuron disease, increasing evidence indicates that the sole protection of ...

Early Long-Term Memory Impairment and Changes in the Expression of Synaptic Plasticity-Associated Genes, in the McGill-R-Thy1-APP Rat Model of Alzheimer's-Like Brain Amyloidosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2021
Accruing evidence supports the hypothesis that memory deficits in early Alzheimer Disease (AD) might be due to synaptic failure caused by accumulation of intracellular amyloid beta (Aβ) oligomers, then secreted to the extracellular media.

MiR‐142‐3p regulates synaptopathy‐driven disease progression in multiple sclerosis

open access: yesNeuropathology and Applied Neurobiology, Volume 48, Issue 2, February 2022., 2022
By combining clinical and preclinical studies, De Vito et al. propose miR‐142‐3p to be a potential synaptotoxic and negative prognostic marker in multiple sclerosis. Keeping miR‐142‐3p at a low‐level through a personalised therapy may be a promising strategy to improve the disease course in multiple sclerosis.

THEM6: A Novel Molecular Biomarker Predicts Tumor Microenvironment, Molecular Subtype, and Prognosis in Bladder Cancer

open access: yesDisease Markers, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Background. Thioesterase superfamily member 6 (THEM6) has been implicated in the development and progression of various cancers. However, prior research emphasized on its regulatory role merely, we aim to investigate the effect of THEM6 gene on the immunological role and its relationship with molecular subtype in bladder cancer (BLCA). Methods. Through

A new avirulence gene of Leptosphaeria maculans, AvrLm14, identifies a resistance source in American broccoli (Brassica oleracea) genotypes

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 22, Issue 12, Page 1599-1612, December 2021., 2021
Cloning of avirulence gene AvrLm14 in Leptosphaeria maculans allowed us to identify the first resistance gene to the fungus in Brassica oleracea; therefore B. oleracea diversity may be exploited to find novel resistance to the disease. Abstract In many cultivated crops, sources of resistance to diseases are sparse and rely on introgression from wild ...

Anxious Behavior of Adult CD1 Mice Perinatally Exposed to Low Concentrations of Ethanol Correlates With Morphological Changes in Cingulate Cortex and Amygdala

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2020
Perinatal ethanol (EtOH) exposure is associated with high incidence of behavioral disorders such as depression and anxiety. The cerebral areas related with these consequences involve the corticolimbic system, in particular the prefrontal cortex ...

Reduced Expression of Hippocampal GluN2A-NMDAR Increases Seizure Susceptibility and Causes Deficits in Contextual Memory

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors are heterotetramers composed of two GluN1 obligatory subunits and two regulatory subunits. In cognitive-related brain structures, GluN2A and GluN2B are the most abundant regulatory subunits, and their expression is ...
