The Locus Coeruleus in Chronic Pain

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences
Pain perception is the consequence of a complex interplay between activation and inhibition. Noradrenergic pain modulation inhibits nociceptive transmission and pain perception. The main source of norepinephrine (NE) in the central nervous system is the Locus Coeruleus (LC), a small but complex cluster of cells in the pons.

The Role of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Modulating Autonomic Dysfunction in Irritable Bowel Syndrome rTMS for IBS Autonomic Dysfunction

open access: yesSensory Neuroscience, EarlyView.
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is associated with dysregulation of the autonomic nervous system and altered brain–gut communication. rTMS may alleviate IBS symptoms by modulating central autonomic and pain‐processing networks, potentially restoring sympathovagal balance and reducing visceral hypersensitivity.

The Locus Coeruleus Modulates Intravenous General Anesthesia of Zebrafish via a Cooperative Mechanism

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
Summary: How general anesthesia causes loss of consciousness has been a mystery for decades. It is generally thought that arousal-related brain nuclei, including the locus coeruleus (LC), are involved.

Microinjection of vasopressin into the locus coeruleus of conscious rats

open access: yes, 1984
To determine whether vasopressin plays a role in central neural control of cardiovascular function by acting on the locus coeruleus we monitored arterial pressure and heart rate responses to graded injections of vasopressin (1-30 ng, 0.1-0.3 microliter ...

Opioid withdrawal syndrome‐associated cognitive impairment: A narrative review

open access: yesThe American Journal on Addictions, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Opioid withdrawal syndrome (OWS) comprises a transient constellation of subjective symptoms and objective signs expressed by brain and other organs. Although cognitive impairment is well documented in opioid use and addiction, little is known about cognitive impairment that may specifically accompany OWS.

Increased opioid dependence in a mouse model of panic disorder

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2010
Panic disorder is a highly prevalent neuropsychiatric disorder that shows co-occurrence with substance abuse. Here, we demonstrate that TrkC, the high affinity receptor for neurotrophin-3, is a key molecule involved in panic disorder and opiate ...

Human brain matters: Navigating the neuropathology of COVID‐19

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
Severe COVID‐19 is associated with vascular dysregulation and chronic neuroinflammation, leading to axonal injury and neurodegeneration. In long COVID or PASC, persistent alterations in neuroimaging and biofluid biomarkers reflect ongoing neuronal damage and neuroinflammation, contributing to long‐term neurological symptoms including fatigue, cognitive

Neuropathology of a patient with Parkinson's disease and biallelic expansion in RFC1

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
This is the first report of neuropathology in biallelic RFC1 expansion‐associated Parkinson’s disease (PD). It shows a synucleinopathy of intraneuronal Lewy bodies consistent with the clinical PD diagnosis while neuropathological CANVAS (Cerebellar Ataxia with Neuropathy and bilateral Vestibular Areflexia) features were absent.

Repetitive Transcranial Electrical Stimulation Induces Quantified Changes in Resting Cerebral Perfusion Measured from Arterial Spin Labeling

open access: yesNeural Plasticity, 2018
The use of transcranial electrical stimulation (TES) as a method to augment neural activity has increased in popularity in the last decade and a half. The specific application of TES to the left prefrontal cortex has been shown to produce broad cognitive
