Convergent Neuronal Plasticity and Metaplasticity Mechanisms of Stress, Nicotine, and Alcohol.
Stress and tobacco smoking are risk factors for alcoholism, but the underlying neural mechanisms are not well understood. Although stress, nicotine, and alcohol have broad, individual effects in the brain, some of their actions converge onto the same ...

Mechanisms of Homeostatic Synaptic Plasticity in vivo
Synapses undergo rapid activity-dependent plasticity to store information, which when left uncompensated can lead to destabilization of neural function.

Data mining for the diagnosis of type 2 diabetes [PDF]
Diabetes is the most common disease nowadays in all populations and in all age groups. diabetes contributing to heart disease, increases the risks of developing kidney disease, blindness, nerve damage, and blood vessel damage.

Visualization of the distribution of autophosphorylated calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II after tetanic stimulation in the CA1 area of the hippocampus [PDF]
Autophosphorylation of calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) at threonine-286 produces Ca2+-independent kinase activity and has been proposed to be involved in induction of long-term potentiation by tetanic stimulation in the ...

Incubation of esophageal epithelial cells with a weakly acidic (pH 5) bile salt (deoxycholic acid) induces translocation of HMGB1 from the nucleus to the cytosol, and its subsequent release from the cell. This process can be ameliorated by pre‐treatment with the antioxidant, curcumin.

Long-term synaptic plasticity is fundamental to learning and network function. It has been studied under various induction protocols and depends on firing rates, membrane voltage, and precise timing of action potentials.These protocols show different ...

A Neural Network Approach for Analyzing the Illusion of Movement in Static Images
The purpose of this work is to analyze the illusion of movement that appears when seeing certain static images. This analysis is accomplished by using a biologically plausible neural network that learned (in a unsupervised manner) to identify the ...

Proposal for a New Classification of Rare Cancers Adopting Updated Histological Tumor Types
We propose a new rare cancer classification system using the updated International Classification of Diseases for Oncology 3.2 coding system and the World Health Organization Classification of Tumors 5th edition. This list could serve as a diagnostic classifier to reliably distinguish various rare cancers for clinical applications.

Diversity of Astroglial Effects on Aging- and Experience-Related Cortical Metaplasticity
Activity-dependent regulation of synaptic plasticity, or metaplasticity, plays a key role in the adaptation of neuronal networks to physiological and biochemical changes in aging brain.
