Sturgeons are an ancient and basal group of ray‐finned fishes whose pallium consists of lateral, medial, and posterior divisions. The connections of these divisions were determined by injections of biotinylated dextran amine and DiI. Although there is considerable overlap in the connections of these pallial divisions, their heaviest connections are ...

Mechanisms of Acupuncture on the Neurovascular Unit in Migraine: A Narrative Review
ABSTRACT Objective The neurovascular unit (NVU) is a core structural and functional entity involved in migraine pathogenesis. Acupuncture may exert therapeutic effects by protecting NVU integrity. This narrative review aims to summarize the current evidence on the mechanisms by which acupuncture protects the NVU in migraine.

Effects of rearing conditions on behaviour and endogenous opioids in rats with alcohol access during adolescence. [PDF]
Causal links between early-life stress, genes and later psychiatric diagnoses are not possible to fully address in human studies. Animal models therefore provide an important complement in which conditions can be well controlled and are here used to ...

ABSTRACT Integration of internal metabolism with environmental cues is essential for successful establishment and survival of seedlings, with light an important mediator of the transition from skotomorphogenesis to photomorphogenesis. However, detailed knowledge of the metabolic events associated with this critical transition in developing tissues of ...

Mycobacteria attenuate nociceptive responses by formyl peptide receptor triggered opioid peptide release from neutrophils. [PDF]
In inflammation, pain is regulated by a balance of pro- and analgesic mediators. Analgesic mediators include opioid peptides which are secreted by neutrophils at the site of inflammation, leading to activation of opioid receptors on peripheral sensory ...
