Neuroplastic changes in addiction [PDF]

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2014
Drug addiction is a chronic, relapsing disorder, which is caused by many factors including genetic, epigenetic, environmental, and drug-related (Robison and Nestler, 2011). Loss of control over drug intake and compulsion for drug taking are the most characteristic features of addiction (Koob and Volkow, 2010).

Semantic Working Memory Predicts Sentence Comprehension Performance: A Case Series Approach

Frontiers in Psychology, 2022
Sentence comprehension involves maintaining and continuously integrating linguistic information and, thus, makes demands on working memory (WM). Past research has demonstrated that semantic WM, but not phonological WM, is critical for integrating word ...

Neuroplasticity in visual impairments

Neurology International, 2018
The visual acuity loss enables the brain to access new pathways in the quest to overcome the visual limitation and this is wellknown as neuroplasticity which have mechanisms to cortical reorganization. In this review, we related the evidences about the neuroplasticity as well as cortical anatomical differences and functional repercussions in visual ...

Immunolocalization of Dynamin I Protein in Projection Neurons of the Visual System of the Adult Cat

Journal of Experimental Neuroscience, 2009
We here report on the immunolocalization of Dynamin I (Dyn I) in neurons of the visual system of the cat. The lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) complex displayed abundant Dyn I immunoreactivity in typical relay cells of the X-, Y- and W-pathway.

Alzheimer disease and neuroplasticity

, 2022
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is considered the most harmful form of dementia in the elderly population. At present, there are no effective treatments and this is likely due to the incomplete understanding of the pathophysiology. Recent data indicate that synaptic dysfunction could be a central element of AD pathophysiology.

White matter microstructural organization and gait stability in older adults

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2014
Understanding age-related decline in gait stability and the role of alterations in brain structure is crucial. Here, we studied the relationship between white matter microstructural organization using Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) and advanced gait ...

Experimental Pipeline (Expipe): A Lightweight Data Management Platform to Simplify the Steps From Experiment to Data Analysis

Frontiers in Neuroinformatics, 2020
As experimental neuroscience is moving toward more integrative approaches, with a variety of acquisition techniques covering multiple spatiotemporal scales, data management is becoming increasingly challenging for neuroscience laboratories.

Neurophysiological modulations in the (pre)motor-motor network underlying age-related increases in reaction time and the role of GABA levels – a bimodal TMS-MRS study

NeuroImage, 2021
It has been argued that age-related changes in the neurochemical and neurophysiological properties of the GABAergic system may underlie increases in reaction time (RT) in older adults.

Foreword for neuroplasticity and neurorehabilitation [PDF]

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014
For much of the twentieth century, the views concerning the plasticity of the mature mammalian central nervous system (CNS) and the possibility of improvement in functional impairments in the chronic phase following substantial damage to the CNS were fixed and rarely questioned.

The human olfactory system in two proteinopathies: Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases

Translational Neurodegeneration, 2020
Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases are the most prevalent neurodegenerative disorders. Their etiologies are idiopathic, and treatments are symptomatic and orientated towards cognitive or motor deficits.
