Clinicopathological and molecular heterogeneity of amyloid‐β in unnatural deaths under 70 years: A forensic autopsy–based study

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
This study investigates amyloid‐beta (Aβ) pathology in a forensic autopsy cohort of relatively young individuals (40–69 years). Using detailed immunohistochemical analyses of multiple Aβ species, we demonstrate marked regional and molecular heterogeneity, particularly within the striatum.

Linking actions to outcomes : the role of the posterior pedunculopontine tegmental nucleus in instrumental learning [PDF]

, 2012
Located in the mesopontine tegmentum, the pedunculopontine tegmental nucleus (PPTg) is comprised principally of glutamatergic, cholinergic and GABAergic neurons.

Nucleus accumbens deep brain stimulation in adult patients suffering from severe and enduring anorexia nervosa (STIMARS): protocol for a pilot study

Frontiers in Psychiatry
BackgroundAffecting adolescent and young adults, anorexia nervosa (AN) has the highest death rate of all mental disorders. Effective treatment options are lacking and a significant proportion of patients develop severe and chronic forms of the disease ...

Decoding neuronal vulnerability: Multidimensional analysis of D1R‐ and D2R‐ medium‐sized spiny neurons in Huntington's disease

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
D1R and D2R MSNs show distinct responses to Huntington's pathology. G&T‐sequencing of pre‐symptomatic MSNs reveals global LINE‐1 downregulation. While D1R‐MSNs display early transcriptomic changes (OXPHOS/translation upregulation) and reduced mutant huntingtin aggregation, D2R‐MSNs exhibit higher nuclear mHTT accumulation and greater CAG somatic ...

Adeno-associated virus (AAV)-mediated suppression of Ca2+/calmodulin kinase IV activity in the nucleus accumbens modulates emotional behaviour in mice

BMC Neuroscience, 2007
Background Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IV (CaMKIV) controls activity-dependent gene transcription by regulating the activity of the cyclic AMP response element binding protein (CREB). This signaling pathway is involved in gating emotional

Is there a role for cannabidiol in obesity, metabolic syndrome and binge eating?

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the most abundant phytocannabinoids isolated from the Cannabis sativa plant. CBD is a lipophilic, non‐intoxicating substance that differently from Δ9‐tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9‐THC) does not present the typical profile of a drug of abuse.

Homeostatic-related peptides injected into the rat nucleus accumbens alter palatable eating and impact the binge-like intake of a sweetened fat diet during simultaneous μ-opioid receptor stimulation

Frontiers in Neuroscience
BackgroundThe nucleus accumbens is central for directing motivated behavior and is a key node in the neural circuitry that promotes eating in response to palatable diets.

The potential for biased signalling in the P2Y receptor family of GPCRs

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The purinergic receptor family is primarily activated by nucleotides, and contains members of both the G protein coupled‐receptor (GPCR) superfamily (P1 and P2Y) and ligand‐gated ion channels (P2X). The P2Y receptors are widely expressed in the human body, and given the ubiquitous nature of nucleotides, purinergic signalling is involved with a plethora

Amylin analogues as a novel perspective in anti‐obesity therapy

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Public health systems face a major challenge because of the worldwide obesity epidemic. The number of obese individuals has increased dramatically and, even in Switzerland which may be considered a relatively “lean” country, the numbers are alarmingly high and have reached almost 50% of the adult population.
