Drug-Induced Plasticity Contributing to Heightened Relapse Susceptibility: Neurochemical Changes and Augmented Reinstatement in High-Intake Rats [PDF]
A key in understanding the neurobiology of addiction and developing effective pharmacotherapies is revealing drug-induced plasticity that results in heightened relapse susceptibility.

Lower density of calretinin‐immunopositive neurons in the putamen of subjects with schizophrenia
Recent neuroimaging and histological studies highlight the striatum as a key area involved in SCH, but the specific impairment of neuronal subtypes in subcortical structures is not fully understood. This study is the first detailed investigation of neuroanatomical changes in the putamen in SCH, specifically examining the density of calretinin ...

A Molecular Communication Perspective of Alzheimer's Disease: Impact of Amyloid Beta Oligomers on Glutamate Diffusion in the Synaptic Cleft [PDF]
Molecular communication (MC) within the synaptic cleft is vital for neurotransmitter diffusion, a process critical to cognitive functions. In Alzheimer's Disease (AD), beta-amyloid oligomers (A$\beta$os) disrupt this communication, leading to synaptic dysfunction.

Self-referencing H+-selective microelectrodes were used to measure extracellular H+ fluxes from horizontal cells isolated from the skate retina. A standing H+ flux was detected from quiescent cells, indicating a higher concentration of free hydrogen ions

Metabotropic Glutamate Receptors and Epileptiform Bursting
Differential Roles for mGluR1 and mGluR5 in the Persistent Prolongation of Epileptiform Bursts Merlin LR J Neurophysiol 2002;87:621–625 Purpose Transient activation of group I metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) with the selective agonist (S)-3,5-dihydroxyphenylglycine (DHPG) produces persistent prolongation of epileptiform bursts in guinea ...

Deleterious mutations in the glutamate receptor metabotropic 1 gene (GRM1) cause a recessive form of cerebellar ataxia, SCAR13. GRM1 and GRM5 code for the metabotropic glutamate type 1 (mGlu1) and type 5 (mGlu5) receptors, respectively.

Mechanism and Prevention of Hyperbaric Oxygen Convulsions [PDF]
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) proves vital in saving lives by elevating the partial pressure of oxygen (pO2). However, HBOT may also have toxic effects, including lung and retinal damage (peripheral HBOT toxicity), muscle spasms and violent myoclonic convulsions (CNS HBOT toxicity), which may even lead to death if left untreated.
