LRP4 is required for the olfactory association task in the piriform cortex

open access: yesCell & Bioscience, 2022
Background Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 4 (LRP4) plays a critical role in the central nervous system (CNS), including hippocampal synaptic plasticity, maintenance of excitatory synaptic transmission, fear regulation, as well as long ...

Impaired synaptic incorporation of AMPA receptors in a mouse model of fragile X syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2023
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common monogenetic cause of inherited intellectual disability and autism in humans. One of the well-characterized molecular phenotypes of Fmr1 KO mice, a model of FXS, is increased translation of synaptic proteins ...

Subcellular RNA-seq for the Analysis of the Dendritic and Somatic Transcriptomes of Single Neurons

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2022
In neurons, local translation in dendritic and axonal compartments allows for the fast and on-demand modification of the local proteome. As the last few years have witnessed dramatic advancements in our appreciation of the brain’s neuronal diversity, it ...

Metformin Ameliorates Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Depressive-Like Behaviors and Abnormal Glutamatergic Transmission

open access: yesBiology, 2020
Metformin, a first-line drug for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), has been found to reduce depressive symptoms in patients with comorbid depression and other diseases.

Neuromodulation of the feedforward dentate gyrus-CA3 microcircuit

open access: yesFrontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience, 2016
The feedforward dentate gyrus-CA3 microcircuit in the hippocampus is thought to activate ensembles of CA3 pyramidal cells and interneurons to encode and retrieve episodic memories.

Metformin Increases Sarcolemma Integrity and Ameliorates Neuromuscular Deficits in a Murine Model of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a genetic neuromuscular disease characterized by progressive muscle weakness and wasting. Stimulation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) has been demonstrated to increase muscle function and protect muscle against

Effects of Synaptic and Myelin Plasticity on Learning in a Network of Kuramoto Phase Oscillators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Models of learning typically focus on synaptic plasticity. However, learning is the result of both synaptic and myelin plasticity. Specifically, synaptic changes often co-occur and interact with myelin changes, leading to complex dynamic interactions ...

Learning to Discriminate Through Long-Term Changes of Dynamical Synaptic Transmission [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Short-term synaptic plasticity is modulated by long-term synaptic changes. There is, however, no general agreement on the computational role of this interaction.

Optimal storage and recall with biologically plausible synapses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Synaptic plasticity is widely accepted to underlie learning and memory. Yet, models of associative networks with biologically plausible synapses fail to match brain performance: memories stored in such networks are quickly overwritten by ongoing ...

The C-terminal helix 9 motif in rat cannabinoid receptor type 1 regulates axonal trafficking and surface expression

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Cannabinoid type one receptor (CB1R) is only stably surface expressed in axons, where it downregulates neurotransmitter release. How this tightly regulated axonal surface polarity is established and maintained is unclear.
