Pituitary Adenylate Cyclase-Activating Polypeptide (PACAP) Protects Striatal Cells and Improves Motor Function in Huntington’s Disease Models: Role of PAC1 Receptor

open access: yesFrontiers 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-

CASK regulates CaMKII autophosphorylation in neuronal growth, calcium signalling and learning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Calcium (Ca2+)/calmodulin (CaM)-dependent kinase II (CaMKII) activity plays a fundamental role in learning and memory. A key feature of CaMKII in memory formation is its ability to be regulated by autophosphorylation, which switches its activity on and ...

The function of Copine 6 in the brain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The formation of new or the remodeling of pre-existing synapses is thought to provide the cellular correlate of learning and memory processes. In the mammalian forebrain, the postsynaptic site of most excitatory synapses is located on dendritic spines ...

Serum Amyloid A1/Toll-Like Receptor-4 Axis, an Important Link between Inflammation and Outcome of TBI Patients

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2021
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the leading causes of mortality and disability worldwide without any validated biomarker or set of biomarkers to help the diagnosis and evaluation of the evolution/prognosis of TBI patients.

Phosphorylation of the actin binding protein Drebrin at S647 and is regulated by neuronal activity and PTEN [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Defects in actin dynamics affect activity-dependent modulation of synaptic transmission and neuronal plasticity, and can cause cognitive impairment. A salient candidate actin-binding protein linking synaptic dysfunction to cognitive deficits is Drebrin ...

Aggrecan Directs Extracellular Matrix-Mediated Neuronal Plasticity

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2018
In the adult brain, the extracellular matrix (ECM) influences recovery after injury, susceptibility to mental disorders, and is in general a strong regulator of neuronal plasticity.

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.

Neuronal plasticity and neurotrophic factors in drug responses

open access: yesMolecular Psychiatry, 2017
Neurotrophic factors, particularly brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and other members of the neurotrophin family, are central mediators of the activity-dependent plasticity through which environmental experiences, such as sensory information are ...
