Effects of Memantine, an NMDA Antagonist, on Metabolic Syndromes in Female NMRI Mice

Basic and Clinical Neuroscience, 2015
Introduction: The brain glutamate neurotransmitter system and its NMDA receptors in the nucleus accumbens play an important role in the incidence of the phenomena of sensitivity and addiction. The present study examined the inhibitory effect of glutamate

Distinct electrophysiology and dopaminergic modulation of medium spiny neurons across divisions of the tail striatum and the dorsolateral striatum

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The striatum is a brain region within the basal ganglia that plays a crucial role in generating behaviour and mediating perception. The tail striatum (TS) is a poorly understood striatal domain with predominantly sensory functions. Recent evidence supports that abnormal TS dopamine transmission in dopaminergic disease contributes to sensory ...

Cholecystokinin and neurotensin peptides as modulator of neurotransmitter release in the nucleus accumbens

, 2008
The present article shortly reviews the biochemical and neurochemical results showing the role that cholecystokinin (CCK) and neurotensin (NT) neuropeptides play in the control of dopaminergic and GABAergic signalling in the rat nucleus accumbens and ...

Canonical and non‐canonical functions of proteins regulating mitochondrial dynamics in mammalian physiology

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that continuously remodel their architecture through coordinated cycles of fusion and fission. This review examines the four key GTPases that orchestrate mitochondrial dynamics in mammals: MFN1, MFN2, OPA1, and DRP1.

Mitochondrial control of ciliary gene expression and structure in striatal neurons

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Neurons drive animal behaviour by receiving and transmitting information and require energy, primarily supplied by mitochondria, to function. Additionally, neurons need to sense environmental changes to adapt, a function that is locally played by the primary cilia.

Psychotropic medication and the fetal brain

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Brain region changes linked to in‐utero psychotropic exposure. Abstract Medications known to cross the blood–brain barrier (psychotropic medications) are commonly prescribed to women during pregnancy, often for the management of mental illness.

A light and electron microscopic study of NADPH-diaphorase-,calretinin- and parvalbumin-containing neurons in the rat nucleus accumbens

, 1996
The rat nucleus accumbens contains medium-sized, spiny projection neurons and intrinsic, local circuit neurons, or interneurons. Sub-classes of interneurons, revealed by calretinin (CR) or parvalbumin (PV) immunoreactivity or reduced nicotinamide adenine

EFFECTS OF REVERSIBLE INACTIVATION OF BILATERAL ACCUMBENS NUCLEI ON MEMORY STORAGE: ANIMAL STUDY IN RAT MODEL

Journal of Research in Medical Sciences, 2002
Introduction. Memory and learning play an important role in human"s life that will become problematic in case disability is weak for any reason. There are many factors that facilitate process of mamory and learning of which accumbens nucleus plays an ...

Genome‐Wide Association Analysis of Hippocampal Neuroplasticity as an Indicator of Stress Responsiveness in Laying Hens (Gallus gallus domesticus)

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Environmental stressors in commercial poultry systems can negatively affect bird welfare, although individuals vary considerably in their responses. Neuroplasticity within the hippocampus, measured through the density of doublecortin‐positive (DCX+) neurons, provides a potential biomarker of stress experience in laying hens.
