Optoelectrical Devices for Neural Interfacing: Engineering Integration, Stability, and Multimodal Sensing

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Implantable optoelectrical devices are an effective resource for the modulation and monitoring of neural activity with high spatiotemporal resolution. This review discusses current challenges faced by these devices and outlines future perspectives for the development of next‐generation neural interfaces targeting chronic, multisite, and multimodal ...

Serotonin transporter dependent modulation of food-seeking behavior.

PLoS ONE, 2020
The olfactory pathway integrates the odor information required to generate correct behavioral responses. To address how changes of serotonin signaling in two contralaterally projecting, serotonin-immunoreactive deutocerebral neurons impacts key odorant ...

Non‐Invasive Brain Targeted Delivery of Cannabidiol for Alleviating Neuroinflammatory Disease

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The glucose‐functionalized nanoparticles (GNPs) are developed for the brain‐targeted delivery of cannabidiol (CBD). GNPs bypass the blood‐brain barrier (BBB) via glucose transporter‐1 (GLUT‐1) and release CBD in response to reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Expression Changes of Serotonin Receptor Gene Subtype 5HT3a in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells from Schizophrenic Patients Treated with Haloperidol and Olanzapin

Iranian Journal of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, 2009
Serotonin receptors are involved in pathophysiology of schizophrenia and may mediate other neurotransmitter effects. We investigated serotonin receptors gene expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of naïve schizophrenic patients, before

Expression of serotonin 2A, 2C, 6 and 7 receptor and IL-6 mRNA in experimental toxoplasmic encephalitis in mice

Heliyon, 2019
The neurotropic pathogen Toxoplasma gondii infects about one-third of the human population. Both acute and chronic (latent or life-long) forms of toxoplasmosis are associated with specific neurologic and neuropsychiatric symptoms.

Enhanced self-administration of the CB1 receptor agonist WIN55,212-2 in olfactory bulbectomized rats: evaluation of possible serotonergic and dopaminergic underlying mechanisms [PDF]

, 2014
Depression has been associated with drug consumption, including heavy or problematic cannabis use. According to an animal model of depression and substance use disorder comorbidity, we combined the olfactory bulbectomy (OBX) model of depression with ...

Bioelectrical Interfaces Beyond Excitable Cells: Cancer, Aging, and Gene Expression Modulation

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The investigation of biological conductivity has evolved from its classical foundation based on ionic fluxes underpinning cardiac and neuronal excitability to a multifaceted regulator of cellular physiology. Traditional approaches for probing electrical events in living matter focused largely on action potentials recording.

Selective serotonin inhibitors and their perspectives in ophthalmology

Oftalʹmologiâ, 2015
Serotonin plays an important role in maintaining homeostasis due to a broad spectrum of receptors localized in nearly every part of the body, i.e., central nervous system, vegetative ganglia, cardiac and lung reflexogenic zone, smooth muscles, internal ...

5-HTP inhibits eosinophilia via intracellular endothelial 5-HTRs; SNPs in 5-HTRs associate with asthmatic lung function

Frontiers in Allergy
BackgroundPrevious research showed that 5-hydroxytryptophan (5HTP), a metabolic precursor of serotonin, reduces allergic lung inflammation by inhibiting eosinophil migration across endothelial monolayers.ObjectiveIt is unknown if serotonin receptors are ...
