Metabolic profiling of human plasma and urine in chronic kidney disease by hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography coupled with time-of-flight mass spectrometry : a pilot study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A typical characteristic of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is the progressive loss in renal function over a period of months or years with the concomitant accumulation of uremic retention solutes in the body.

Women with epilepsy: Evidence‐based counseling across the lifespan

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Women with epilepsy (WWE) encounter distinct and evolving challenges across the lifespan that require clinical management extending beyond seizure control alone. Although awareness of sex‐specific aspects of epilepsy has increased, important gaps remain in their integration into routine care.

Endogenous neurosteroids influence synaptic GABAA receptors during post-natal development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
GABA plays a key role in both embryonic and neonatal brain development. For example, during early neonatal nervous system maturation, synaptic transmission, mediated by GABA A receptors (GABA ARs), undergoes a temporally specific form of synaptic ...

Status epilepticus: Updates on mechanisms and treatments

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) consists of prolonged, self‐sustaining seizures and is a common neurological emergency that causes respiratory compromise and neuronal injury. Without prompt treatment, the seizures can become resistant to benzodiazepines, leading to the progressive evolution of established, refractory, and super‐refractory SE.

Combined liquid and solid-phase extraction improves quantification of brain estrogen content

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2011
Accuracy in quantifying brain-derived steroid hormones (‘neurosteroids’) has become increasingly important for understanding the modulation of neuronal activity, development, and physiology.

Clock-Controlled Mitochondrial Dynamics Correlates with Cyclic Pregnenolone Synthesis

open access: yesCells, 2020
Neurosteroids are steroids synthetized in the nervous system, with the first step of steroidogenesis taking place within mitochondria with the synthesis of pregnenolone. They exert important brain-specific functions by playing a role in neurotransmission,

Alfaxalone population pharmacokinetics in the rat: Model application for pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic design in inbred and outbred strains and sexes

open access: yesPharmacology Research & Perspectives, 2022
The translation of new injectable anesthetic drugs from rodent to humans remains slow, despite the realization that reliance on the volatile agents is unsustainable from an environmental perspective. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence

Microglial Cell Morphology and Phagocytic Activity Are Critically Regulated by the Neurosteroid Allopregnanolone: A Possible Role in Neuroprotection

open access: yesCells, 2021
Microglial cells are key players in neural pathogenesis and microglial function regulation appears to be pivotal in controlling neuroinflammatory/neurological diseases.

An iEEG investigation on sex‐specific differences in seizure duration

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Male people with epilepsy (mPWE) are at higher risk for bilateral tonic–clonic seizures (BTCs) and sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) compared to female people with epilepsy (fPWE). Despite major clinical and personal implications, little is known about sex‐specific differences in seizure propagation and termination ...

Neuroactive Steroids Reverse Tonic Inhibitory Deficits in Fragile X Syndrome Mouse Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2019
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common form of inherited intellectual disability. A reduction in neuronal inhibition mediated by γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptors (GABAARs) has been implicated in the pathophysiology of FXS.
