Transcriptomic profile of epileptic children treated with ketogenic therapies [PDF]
Background: Ketogenic dietary therapies (KDT) are used as a treatment in childhood epilepsy. However, their mechanism has not yet been established. The main objective of this study was to determine the changes in the transcriptomic profile induced by ...

The Absence of Caspase-8 in the Dopaminergic System Leads to Mild Autism-like Behavior
In the last decade, new non-apoptotic roles have been ascribed to apoptotic caspases. This family of proteins plays an important role in the sculpting of the brain in the early stages of development by eliminating excessive and nonfunctional synapses and

Evidence that masking of synapsis imperfections counterbalances quality control to promote efficient meiosis. [PDF]
Reduction in ploidy to generate haploid gametes during sexual reproduction is accomplished by the specialized cell division program of meiosis. Pairing between homologous chromosomes and assembly of the synaptonemal complex at their interface (synapsis ...

Regulation of microglia phagocytosis and potential involvement of exercise
Microglia are considered the main phagocytic cells in the central nervous system, remodeling neural circuits by pruning synapses during development. Microglial phagocytosis is also a crucial process in maintaining adult brain homeostasis and clearing ...

The Formation of Bivalents and the Control of Plant Meiotic Recombination
During the first meiotic division, the segregation of homologous chromosomes depends on the physical association of the recombined homologous DNA molecules.

Peroxisomal Proliferator-Activated Receptor β/δ Deficiency Induces Cognitive Alterations
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor β/δ (PPARβ/δ), the most PPAR abundant isotype in the central nervous system, is involved in microglial homeostasis and metabolism, whose disturbances have been demonstrated to play a key role in memory ...

On the synapsis in amphibia [PDF]
Abstract In 1903 and 1904 one of us, in conjunction with Professor Farmer, described the maiotic process in a variety of animals and plants. From the observations then accumulated it was in the first place shown that what we termed the maiotic process appears to be the same throughout the animal and vegetable kingdoms.

Meiotic behavior of small chromosomes in maize
The typical behavior of chromosomes in meiosis is that homologous pairs synapse, recombine and then separate at anaphase I. At anaphase II, sister chromatids separate.
