NT-4/5 Exacerbates Free Radical-Induced Neuronal Necrosis in Vitro and in Vivo
Neurotrophins render neurons highly vulnerable to certain injuries. We examined the possibility that NT-4/5 would enhance free radical neurotoxicity in vivo as well as in vitro.

Frontostriatal Maturation Predicts Cognitive Control Failure to Appetitive Cues in Adolescents [PDF]
Adolescent risk-taking is a public health issue that increases the odds of poor lifetime outcomes. One factor thought to influence adolescents' propensity for risk-taking is an enhanced sensitivity to appetitive cues, relative to an immature capacity to ...

Kinetics and durability of transgene expression after intrastriatal injection of AAV9 vectors
Understanding the kinetics and durability of AAV-mediated transgene expression in the brain is essential for conducting basic neuroscience studies as well as for developing gene therapy approaches for CNS diseases.

Dopamine-D1 and δ-opioid receptors co-exist in rat striatal neurons [PDF]
Cocaine’s enhancement of dopaminergic neurotransmission in the mesolimbic pathway plays a critical role in the initial reinforcing properties of this drug. However, other neurotransmitter systems are also integral to the addiction process.

Ventral Caudate and Anterior Insula Recruitment During Value Estimation of Passionate Rewarding Cues
“Wanting”, a component of reward processing, is a motivational property that guides decision making in goal-oriented behavior. This includes behavior aiming at supporting relational bonds, even at the group level.
