Effect of modulating glutamate signaling on myelinating oligodendrocytes and their development—A study in the zebrafish model

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience Research, Volume 99, Issue 11, Page 2774-2792, November 2021., 2021
Abstract Myelination is crucial for the development and maintenance of axonal integrity, especially fast axonal action potential conduction. There is increasing evidence that glutamate signaling and release through neuronal activity modulates the myelination process.

The Key Genes Underlying Pathophysiology Association between Plaque Instability and Progression of Myocardial Infarction

open access: yesDisease Markers, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Young patients with type 2 diabetes and myocardial infarction (MI) have higher long‐term all‐cause and cardiovascular mortality. In addition, the observed increased, mildly abnormal baseline lipid levels, but not lipid variability, are associated with an increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease events, particularly MI.

Non-synaptic Plasticity in Leech Touch Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
The role of Na+/K+-pumps in activity-dependent synaptic plasticity has been described in both vertebrates and invertebrates. Here, we provide evidence that the Na+/K+-pump is also involved in activity-dependent non-synaptic cellular plasticity in leech ...

Reversal of age-related learning deficiency by the vertebrate PACAP and IGF-1 in a novel invertebrate model of aging: the pond snail (Lymnaea Stagnalis) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
With the increase of life span, nonpathological age-related memory decline is affecting an increasing number of people. However, there is evidence that age-associated memory impairment only suspends, rather than irreversibly extinguishes, the intrinsic ...

Dystonia: sparse synapses for D2 receptors in striatum of a DYT1 knock-out mouse model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Dystonia pathophysiology has been partly linked to downregulation and dysfunction of dopamine D2 receptors in striatum. We aimed to investigate the possible morpho-structural correlates of D2 receptor downregulation in the striatum of a DYT1 Tor1a mouse ...

Neuroinflammation: An Integrating Overview of Reactive‐Neuroimmune Cell Interactions in Health and Disease

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
The concept of central nervous system (CNS) inflammation has evolved over the last decades. Neuroinflammation is the response of reactive CNS components to altered homeostasis, regardless of the cause to be endogenous or exogenous. Neurological diseases, whether traumatic, neoplastic, ischemic, metabolic, toxic, infectious, autoimmune, developmental ...

Synergistic excitability plasticity in cerebellar functioning

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, 2020
The cerebellum, a universal processor for sensory acquisition and internal models, and its association with synaptic and nonsynaptic plasticity have been envisioned as the biological correlates of learning, perception, and even thought.

Habituation of the C-start response in larval zebrafish exhibits several distinct phases and sensitivity to NMDA receptor blockade. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The zebrafish larva has been a valuable model system for genetic and molecular studies of development. More recently, biologists have begun to exploit the surprisingly rich behavioral repertoire of zebrafish larvae to investigate behavior.

Osmotic Edema Rapidly Increases Neuronal Excitability Through Activation of NMDA Receptor-Dependent Slow Inward Currents in Juvenile and Adult Hippocampus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Cellular edema (cell swelling) is a principal component of numerous brain disorders including ischemia, cortical spreading depression, hyponatremia, and epilepsy.

About a snail, a toad and rodents: animal models for adaptation research

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2010
Neural adaptation mechanisms have many similarities throughout the animal kingdom, enabling to study fundamentals of human adaptation in selected animal models with experimental approaches that are impossible to apply in man.
