Long-Term Depression of a Dopamine IPSC [PDF]
Two determinants of dopamine release from terminals in striatal and limbic structures are the pattern and rate of dopamine neuron firing in the ventral midbrain. This activity is regulated in part by somatodendritic release of dopamine and subsequent feedback inhibition through activation of D2receptors on dopamine neuron cell bodies and dendrites ...

Peers, Gender, and Long-Term Depression [PDF]
We provide first evidence that peer depression in adolescence affects own depression in adulthood. We use data from Add Health and an identification strategy that relies on within-school and across-cohort idiosyncratic variation in the share of own-gender peers who are depressed. We find a significant peer effect for females but not for males.

Modeling homosynaptic and heterosynaptic plasticity with a single neuromemristive synapse
Introduction: Efforts are being made to design a brain-like intelligence due to its robustness, synaptic modification (i.e., learning and memory), analog synaptic multiplication, multi-state storage, ultra-low power consumption, and parallel computation.

Motor cortical plasticity induced by motor learning through mental practice.
Several investigations suggest that actual and mental actions trigger similar neural substrates. Motor learning via physical practice results in long-term potentiation (LTP)-like plasticity processes, namely potentiation of M1 and a temporary occlusion ...

ABSTRACT Background Pediatric bone sarcoma patients and survivors may experience psychosocial challenges related to childhood cancer after their intensive, body‐altering treatment. This cross‐sectional study aimed to evaluate generic and survivor‐specific psychosocial outcomes in a national cohort of pediatric bone sarcoma patients and survivors, and ...

The demise of the synapse as the locus of memory: A looming paradigm shift?
Synaptic plasticity is widely considered to be the neurobiological basis of learning and memory by neuroscientists and researchers in adjacent fields, though diverging opinions are increasingly being recognised. From the perspective of what we might call

ABSTRACT Background Adolescents with haematological malignancies face significant emotional and relational challenges, often accompanied by difficulties in communicating their needs within the healthcare context. To address these issues, a narrative‐based psycho‐educational intervention based on the creation and prescription of Ironic Medications was ...

A Practical Guide to Using CV Analysis for Determining the Locus of Synaptic Plasticity
Long-term synaptic plasticity is widely believed to underlie learning and memory in the brain. Whether plasticity is primarily expressed pre- or postsynaptically has been the subject of considerable debate for many decades. More recently, it is generally

Predictors of long-term prognosis of depression [PDF]
Many people with depression experience repeated episodes. Previous research into the predictors of chronic depression has focused primarily on the clinical features of the disease; however, little is known about the broader spectrum of sociodemographic and health factors inherent in its development.

Misperception of Body Weight After Childhood Cancer
ABSTRACT Background Misperception of body weight can negatively impact the weight management efforts of childhood cancer survivors (CCSs). Both being overweight or underweight are associated with chronic health conditions commonly observed in CCS; therefore, accurate weight perception is critical for reducing long‐term health risks.
