Mitochondria and Neuroplasticity [PDF]
ASN Neuro, 2010 The production of neurons from neural progenitor cells, the growth of axons and dendrites and the formation and reorganization of synapses are examples of neuroplasticity. These processes are regulated by cell-autonomous and intercellular (paracrine and endocrine) programs that mediate responses of neural cells to environmental input.

Neuroplasticity and psychiatry
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Psychiatry, 1998 Objective: There is increasing concern that the course of psychiatric disorders may be affected by parameters such as the duration and intensity of symptoms of initial episodes of illness. As this indicates that abnormal function produces long-term changes within the brain, a review of the neuroscience literature regarding neuroplasticity is warranted.

Modernism/modernity, 2016 “Our brain is plastic and we do not know it” says French philosopher Catherine Malabou. This article argues that Joseph Conrad knew it. In the process it suggests that contemporary discoveries in the neurosciences about the “neuroplasticity” of the human brain can be supplemented by tracing the aesthetic and conceptual implications of the plastic ...

Neuroplasticity and Alzheimer’s Disease [PDF]
Journal of Integrative NeuroscienceAlzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that leads to a decline in cognitive function, including memory. The exact causes of AD are not fully understood, and to date no treatments are available that can stop the progression of this neurocognitive disorder.

The nuclear lamina is a hub for the nuclear function of Jacob
Molecular Brain, 2021 Jacob is a synapto-nuclear messenger protein that couples NMDAR activity to CREB-dependent gene expression. In this study, we investigated the nuclear distribution of Jacob and report a prominent targeting to the nuclear envelope that requires NMDAR ...

Gut Microbiota and Neuroplasticity [PDF]
Cells, 2021 The accumulating evidence linking bacteria in the gut and neurons in the brain (the microbiota–gut–brain axis) has led to a paradigm shift in the neurosciences. Understanding the neurobiological mechanisms supporting the relevance of actions mediated by the gut microbiota for brain physiology and neuronal functioning is a key research area.

Translational Neurodegeneration, 2022 Background The metabolic syndrome is a consequence of modern lifestyle that causes synaptic insulin resistance and cognitive deficits and that in interaction with a high amyloid load is an important risk factor for Alzheimer's disease.

Scientific Reports, 2021 Adolescence represents a crucial period for maturation of brain structures involved in cognition. Early in life unhealthy dietary patterns are associated with inferior cognitive outcomes at later ages; conversely, healthy diet is associated with better ...

Molecular Brain, 2023 Jacob is a synapto-nuclear messenger protein that encodes and transduces the origin of synaptic and extrasynaptic NMDA receptor signals to the nucleus. The protein assembles a signalosome that differs in case of synaptic or extrasynaptic NMDAR activation.

Nature Communications, 2023 Genetically encoded Ca2+ indicators (GECIs) are used to measure neural activity. Here, authors screen GECI constructs for suitability with systemic injections and soma-targeting, and modify a soma-targeting peptide for improved expression rate.
