Striatal Volume Increases in Active Methamphetamine-Dependent Individuals and Correlation with Cognitive Performance

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2012
The effect of methamphetamine (MA) dependence on the structure of the human brain has not been extensively studied, especially in active users. Previous studies reported cortical deficits and striatal gains in grey matter (GM) volume of abstinent MA ...

Ethnomedicinal Uses, Phytochemistry, Pharmacological Activities, and Toxicology of the Subfamily Gomphrenoideae (Amaranthaceae): A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The subfamily Gomphrenoideae is composed of about 480 accepted species, many of which have been historically used as medicinal plants, reason why they have been studied in terms of chemical profile, biological activity, and safety. This review consolidates the advances in research on this subfamily over the past 47 years, emphasizing its ...

A link between the hippocampal and the striatal memory systems of the brain

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2006
Two major memory systems have been recognized over the years (Squire 1987): the declarative memory system, which is under the control of the hippocampus and related temporal lobe structures, and the procedural or habit memory system, which is under the ...

Probing the Inhibitory Potential of Halogenated Symmetrical Formamidine Against MAO‐A and MAO‐B: Structural Elucidation, Molecular Dynamic Simulation and DFT Computational Studies

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A halogenated symmetrical formamidine, N,N′‐bis(3‐chloro‐4‐fluorophenyl)formamidine (FCF) was synthesized by the condensation reaction between triethyl orthoformate and 3‐chloro‐4‐fluoroaniline in 1:2 ratio. The compound FCF was characterized by FT‐IR, mass, NMR (1H and 13C) spectroscopic techniques and the purity was confirmed by elemental ...

Manganese Neurotoxicity and Familial Disorders of Manganese Transport

open access: yesAnnals of the Child Neurology Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Manganese is the 12th most common element in the Earth's crust and is an essential industrial component. Biologically, this metal plays an important role as a constituent of numerous enzymes. While manganese is required for normal biochemical and physiological processes, manganese excess can lead to significant toxicity, particularly to the ...

Transcriptome analyses suggest minimal effects of Shank3 dosage on directional gene expression changes in the mouse striatum

open access: yesAnimal Cells and Systems, 2019
Both deletions and duplications of the SH3 and multiple ankyrin repeat domains 3 (SHANK3) gene, encoding excitatory postsynaptic scaffolds, are causally associated with various brain disorders, suggesting that proper Shank3 dosage is critical for normal ...

Dynamic expression of lamin B1 during adult neurogenesis in the vertebrate brain

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background In mammals, specific brain regions such as the dentate gyrus (DG) of the hippocampus and the subventricular zone (SVZ) of the lateral ventricles harbor adult neural stem/progenitor cells (ANSPCs) that give rise to new neurons and contribute to structural and functional brain plasticity.
