“We Cannot Talk as a Family”: Complexities of Survivorship Communication Among Hispanic/Latino Young Adult Survivors of Childhood Cancer, Parents, and Clinicians

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Young adult childhood cancer survivors (YA‐CCS) have an increased risk of treatment‐related health complications throughout their lives. Lifelong survivorship care is recommended, yet many YA‐CCS experience disruptions in care during pediatric‐to‐adult transitions and do not receive recommended survivorship care.

Modeling homosynaptic and heterosynaptic plasticity with a single neuromemristive synapse

Journal of Advanced Research
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.

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2015
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 ...

Predictors of long-term prognosis of depression [PDF]

Canadian Medical Association Journal, 2011
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.

Neurocognitive, School‐Based, and Quality of Life Outcomes for Youth With Sickle Cell Disease and Thalassemia: A Scoping Review

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The medical burdens of sickle cell disease (SCD) and transfusion‐dependent β‐thalassemia (TDT) are chronic and cumulative, even in children. Yet the effects expand beyond medications and healthcare visits due to their impacts on school attendance, academic performance, and peer engagement.

The demise of the synapse as the locus of memory: A looming paradigm shift?

Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2016
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

The heterodimeric amino acid transporters (HAT) of the SLC7/SLC3 family: A structure−function relationships and relevance to human pathology

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.

A Practical Guide to Using CV Analysis for Determining the Locus of Synaptic Plasticity

Frontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience, 2020
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

Avidin is evolutionarily conserved in fish but dispensable for development and resistance against Streptococcus agalactiae in zebrafish

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The presence of biotin‐binding avidin proteins in fish and their biological significance are poorly characterized. We cataloged fish avidins and demonstrate that they are widely present and evolutionarily conserved. We created avd knockout zebrafish and show that zebavidin is dispensable for development and that resistance of avd knockout embryos in ...

Non-Hebbian Spike-Timing Dependent Plasticity in Cerebellar Circuits

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2013
Spike-timing dependent plasticity (STDP) provides a cellular implementation of the Hebb postulate, which states that synapses, whose activity repeatedly drives action potential firing in target cells, are potentiated.
