Birdsongs alleviate anxiety and paranoia in healthy participants
Scientific Reports, 2022 The present study investigated the effect of urban (traffic noise) vs. natural (birdsongs) soundscapes on mood, state paranoia, and cognitive performance, hypothesizing that birdsongs lead to significant improvements in these outcomes. An additional goal

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2017 Synaptic cell adhesion molecules represent important targets for neuronal activity-dependent proteolysis. Postsynaptic neuroligins (NLs) form trans-synaptic complexes with presynaptic neurexins (NXs). Both NXs and NLs are cleaved from the cell surface by

Neuronal Plasticity and Function
Clinical Neuropharmacology, 1993 Neuronal plasticity is a key issue in neuroscience. It is defined as the capability of the neuron to adapt to a changing internal or external environment, to previous experience or to trauma. It appears that during all phases of the individual life span in the nervous system, changes take place that relate to development, degeneration, and regeneration.

Alterations in brain connectivity due to plasticity and synaptic delay
, 2017 Brain plasticity refers to brain's ability to change neuronal connections, as a result of environmental stimuli, new experiences, or damage. In this work, we study the effects of the synaptic delay on both the coupling strengths and synchronisation in a ...

Neuronal assembly dynamics in supervised and unsupervised learning scenarios [PDF]
, 2013 The dynamic formation of groups of neurons—neuronal assemblies—is believed to mediate cognitive phenomena at many levels, but their detailed operation and mechanisms of interaction are still to be uncovered.

Click Chemistry (CuAAC) and Detection of Tagged de novo Synthesized Proteins in Drosophila
Bio-Protocol, 2019 Copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne-cycloaddition (CuAAC), also known as ‘click chemistry’ serves as a technique for bio-orthogonal, that is, bio-compatible labeling of macromolecules including proteins or lipids.

Melatonin Reduces NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation by Increasing α7 nAChR-Mediated Autophagic Flux
Antioxidants, 2020 Microglia controls the immune system response in the brain. Specifically, the activation and dysregulation of the NLRP3 inflammasome is responsible for the initiation of the inflammatory process through IL-1β and IL-18 release.

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2022 Huntington’s disease (HD) is a hereditary neurodegenerative disorder caused by the expression of mutant huntingtin (mHtt). One of the main features of HD is the degeneration of the striatum that leads to motor discoordination. Pituitary adenylate cyclase-

Fractal analyses of networks of integrate-and-fire stochastic spiking neurons
, 2018 Although there is increasing evidence of criticality in the brain, the processes that guide neuronal networks to reach or maintain criticality remain unclear.
