Dorsomedial striatum, but not dorsolateral striatum, is necessary for rat category learning

open access: yesNeurobiology of Learning and Memory, 2023
Categorization is an adaptive cognitive function that allows us to generalize knowledge to novel situations. Converging evidence from neuropsychological, neuroimaging, and neurophysiological studies suggest that categorization is mediated by the basal ganglia; however, there is debate regarding the necessity of each subregion of the basal ganglia and ...

The pyruvate generator is a common phenomenon in mitochondria from different rat and mouse brain regions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The pyruvate generator, which causes activation of respiration by extra‐mitochondrial Ca2+, is also present and functional in rat brainstem mitochondria, as it is in other brain regions. This finding is confirmed by experiments with a fully reconstituted malate–aspartate shuttle (MAS).

Striatum-Centered Fiber Connectivity Is Associated with the Personality Trait of Cooperativeness. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cooperativeness is an essential behavioral trait evolved to facilitate group living. Social and cognitive mechanisms involved in cooperation (e.g., motivation, reward encoding, action evaluation, and executive functions) are sub-served by the striatal ...

Age and gender effects on striatal dopamine transporter density and cerebral perfusion in individuals with non-degenerative parkinsonism: a dual-phase 18F-FP-CIT PET study

open access: yesEJNMMI Research
Background Dual-phase fluorine-18 labeled N-3-fluoropropyl-2β-carbomethoxy-3β-(4-iodophenyl) nortropane (18F-FP-CIT) positron emission tomography (PET) scans could be used to support disorders like Parkinson’s disease (PD).

Uptake of 18F-AV45 in the Putamen Provides Additional Insights into Alzheimer’s Disease beyond the Cortex

open access: yesBiomolecules
Cortical uptake in brain amyloid positron emission tomography (PET) is increasingly used for the biological diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD); however, the clinical and biological relevance of the striatum beyond the cortex in amyloid PET scans ...

Noise exposure in early adulthood causes age-dependent and brain region-specific impairments in cognitive function

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Hearing loss is a chronic health condition that affects millions of people worldwide. In addition to age-related hearing impairment, excessive noise exposure is a leading cause of hearing loss. Beyond the devastating effects of hearing impairment itself,

Lateralization of dynorphin gene expression in the rat striatum

open access: yes, 2008
Hemispheric lateralization is well known in the cerebral cortex, but not in subcortical structures like basal ganglia. The goal of our study was to determine whether lateralization was present in the direct and indirect striatal pathways. We studied gene

Functional and Structural Evidence of Neurofluid Circuit Aberrations in Huntington Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Disrupted neurofluid regulation may contribute to neurodegeneration in Huntington disease (HD). Because neurofluid pathways influence waste clearance, inflammation, and the distribution of central nervous system (CNS)–delivered therapeutics, understanding their dysfunction is increasingly important as targeted treatments emerge.

Dopamine D1 and Glutamate Receptors Co-operate With Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) and TrkB to Modulate ERK Signaling in Adult Striatal Slices

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2020
In the striatum, the input nucleus of the basal ganglia, the extracellular-signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway, necessary for various forms of behavioral plasticity, is triggered by the combined engagement of dopamine D1 and ionotropic glutamate ...
