Nuclear parcellation of pontine catecholaminergic and cholinergic neurons in gray parrots and pied crow brains

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Immunohistochemical staining for tyrosine hydroxylase reveals the neurons forming the locus coeruleus complex in the pontine region of the brain of the Congo gray parrot. The appearance and parcellation of the locus coeruleus complex in birds shows many similarities, but also differences to that observed in mammals.

FGL‐1 Modulates Inter‐Organ Communication by Controlling T Cell Homeostasis during the Onset of Sjögren's Disease

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Autoimmunity occurs due to the tactics between pathogenic and regulatory factors in systemic organs. Although inter‐organ communication has been demonstrated in various diseases, the effects of the crosstalk between the immune system and other organs on autoimmune disease is unknown.

Insight into mosquito GnRH-related neuropeptide receptor specificity revealed through analysis of naturally occurring and synthetic analogs of this neuropeptide family [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Adipokinetic hormone (AKH), corazonin (CRZ), and the AKH/CRZ-related peptide (ACP) are neuropeptides considered homologous to the vertebrate gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH).

Next-generation neuropeptide Y receptor small-molecule agonists inhibit mosquito-biting behavior

open access: yesParasites & Vectors
Background Female Aedes aegypti mosquitoes can spread disease-causing pathogens when they bite humans to obtain blood nutrients required for egg production. Following a complete blood meal, host-seeking is suppressed until eggs are laid.

Regulation of sleep by neuropeptide Y-like system in Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Sleep is important for maintenance of normal physiology in animals. In mammals, neuropeptide Y (NPY), a homolog of Drosophila neuropeptide F (NPF), is involved in sleep regulation, with different effects in human and rat.

Cognitive and Cerebral Aging Research in Autism: A Systematic Review on an Emerging Topic

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aging in autism is an emerging and under‐explored area of research. This systematic review provides a comprehensive overview of studies on cognitive and both structural and functional cerebral aging in autism. A systematic search of PubMed and APA PsycInfo was conducted up to and including January 2024.

Cerebellum Transcriptome of Mice Bred for High Voluntary Activity Offers Insights into Locomotor Control and Reward-Dependent Behaviors. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The role of the cerebellum in motivation and addictive behaviors is less understood than that in control and coordination of movements. High running can be a self-rewarding behavior exhibiting addictive properties.

A Novel Integrative Mechanism in Anxiolytic Behavior Induced by Galanin 2/Neuropeptide Y Y1 Receptor Interactions on Medial Paracapsular Intercalated Amygdala in Rats

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018
Anxiety is evoked by a threatening situation and display adaptive or defensive behaviors, found similarly in animals and humans. Neuropeptide Y (NPY) Y1 receptor (NPYY1R) and Galanin (GAL) receptor 2 (GALR2) interact in several regions of the limbic ...
