Abnormal Morphology and Synaptogenic Signaling in Astrocytes Following Prenatal Opioid Exposure
In recent decades, there has been a dramatic rise in the rates of children being born after in utero exposure to drugs of abuse, particularly opioids. Opioids have been shown to have detrimental effects on neurons and glia in the central nervous system ...

Expression of Neurofilament Subunits at Neocortical Glutamatergic and GABAergic Synapses
Neurofilaments (NFs) are neuron-specific heteropolymers that have long been considered as structural proteins. However, it has recently been documented that they may play a functional role at synapses.

Synapse: Synthetic Application Profiler and Emulator [PDF]
We introduce Synapse motivated by the needs to estimate and emulate workload execution characteristics on high-performance and distributed heterogeneous resources. Synapse has a platform independent application profiler, and the ability to emulate profiled workloads on a variety of heterogeneous resources.

Emerging Therapeutic Strategies for Hearing Loss
Challenges still exist in treating hearing loss in cases of severe damage to hair cells or spiral ganglion neurons. Here, a schematic diagram of cochlear sensory hair cells and auditory nerves is presented. It is found that in normal Corti organs, hair cells have upright stereocilia at the top and auditory neurons at the base. Ototoxic drugs, noise, or

The FGFR inhibitor Rogaratinib reduces microglia reactivity and synaptic loss in TBI
BackgroundTraumatic brain injury (TBI) induces an acute reactive state of microglia, which contribute to secondary injury processes through phagocytic activity and release of cytokines.

Point Neurons with Conductance-Based Synapses in the Neural Engineering Framework [PDF]
The mathematical model underlying the Neural Engineering Framework (NEF) expresses neuronal input as a linear combination of synaptic currents. However, in biology, synapses are not perfect current sources and are thus nonlinear. Detailed synapse models are based on channel conductances instead of currents, which require independent handling of ...
