Expanded characterization of the valproic acid zebrafish larval model of autism spectrum disorder: Insights into dysregulation in the gut

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Meticulous calculation of zebrafish‐equivalent therapeutic valproic acid (VPA) dosage maximized the translational value of the data. Hyposerotonergic tone underpinned an anxiety‐like outcome as a core symptom of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Compartment‐specific dopaminergic and serotonergic dysregulation in the brain versus gut provided mechanistic ...

Animal models for investigating post‐stroke cognitive impairment: A neurovascular trafficking perspective

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Animal models enable mechanistic testing of how ischemic injury disrupts neurovascular trafficking and drives cognitive vulnerability after stroke. Complementary models capture distinct vascular, cellular, white matter, and cognitive features of PSCI.

T Cell‐Mediated Targeting of Interneurons in Mice Shapes Hippocampal Remodeling and Epilepsy

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) is associated with autoantibodies targeting distinct neuronal populations. In AE, antibodies against glutamate decarboxylase 65 (GAD65), expressed in GABAergic interneurons, are frequently detected. In GAD65‐AE, hippocampal biopsies often show infiltrates of CD8+ cytotoxic T cells (CTLs), suggesting a prominent T ...

Over the edge: Empirical evidence for the cliff‐edge model of obstetric selection

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The cliff‐edge model of obstetric selection maintains that larger neonates and smaller birth canals confer a positive selective advantage until labor becomes obstructed and vaginal delivery is no longer possible, eliciting an abrupt reduction in fitness.

The mechanism of labor in nonhuman primates: A look inside

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract While in humans, the flexed position of the fetus and its rotating course down the birth canal are well documented, in other primates the mechanism of labor is unknown. Despite the lack of comparative data, it is commonly assumed that the human obstetric mechanism is unique, and anthropologists have disputed when and why the transition to the ...

Anodal Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Improves Social Behavior Alongside Neuroplastic Changes in a Tsc2+/− Rat Model of Autism Spectrum Disorder

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by altered synaptic connectivity and network organization, resulting in profound impairments in social communication and interaction. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) represents a promising approach to modulate maladaptive plasticity associated with ASD;

Scn1a‐mediated developmental regulation of prefrontal cortex plasticity and cognition

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The voltage‐gated sodium channel Nav1.1, encoded by Scn1a, is essential for γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA)ergic function, and its alteration is associated with neurological disorders such as Dravet syndrome and Alzheimer's disease. We previously demonstrated that local Nav1.1 dysfunction in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) during ...

Enhancement by nifedipine of cholinergic-induced depression of locomotor activity in mice.

open access: yes, 1995
The dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker nifedipine did not affect spontaneous locomotor activity in mice when given alone but enhanced the depressant effects of the muscarinic receptor agonist oxotremorine and of the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor ...
