Molecular Profiling of Genes Associated With Methylphenidate Pathway Therapy and Discovery of New Variants in Amazonian Amerindian Populations

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), methylphenidate is one of the most widely used drugs, in which patient response significantly impacts prognosis. This study aimed to characterize the molecular profile of 10 genes associated with methylphenidate therapy.

Glial Control of Synaptogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2005
Though all communication between neurons occurs through synapses, we know surprisingly little about the mechanisms inducing their formation. In this issue of Cell, Barres and colleagues (Christopherson et al., 2005) demonstrate that glial-derived thrombospondins and additional soluble glial-secreted factors regulate synapse assembly and functional ...

Late Pregnancy Antiseizure Medication Exposure and Offspring Neurodevelopmental Risk: A Multi‐Child Cohort Study

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Antiseizure medication (ASM) use during pregnancy has increased over the past decade. However, evidence linking prenatal ASM exposure to neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) in offspring remains inconsistent. This study evaluated whether prenatal ASM exposure increases the risk of NDDs in children.

Generation of functional inhibitory synapses incorporating defined combinations of GABA(A) or glycine receptor subunits

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2015
Fast inhibitory neurotransmission in the brain is mediated by wide range of GABAA receptor (GABAAR) and glycine receptor (GlyR) isoforms, each with different physiological and pharmacological properties.

Non‐Synaptic Function and Localization of Syntaxin‐Binding Protein 1 in a Mouse Model of STXBP1‐Related Epileptic Encephalopathy

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective De novo mutations in the syntaxin‐binding protein 1 (STXBP1), encoded by STXBP1, are among the most prevalent causes of variable neurodevelopmental disorders, including epileptic encephalopathy, developmental delay, and movement disorders.

The Role of Citicoline in Neuroprotection and Neurorepair in Ischemic Stroke

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2013
Advances in acute stroke therapy resulting from thrombolytic treatment, endovascular procedures, and stroke units have improved significantly stroke survival and prognosis; however, for the large majority of patients lacking access to advanced therapies ...

Effect of lithium on acetylcholine esterase activity, and isozyme pattern in developing chick brain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Acetylcholine Esterase is an enzyme, which hydrolyses acetylcholine and is used as a marker for cholinergic neural function. It is known to be involved in synaptogenesis.

Calcium channel α2δ1 proteins mediate trigeminal neuropathic pain states associated with aberrant excitatory synaptogenesis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
To investigate a potential mechanism underlying trigeminal nerve injury-induced orofacial hypersensitivity, we used a rat model of chronic constriction injury to the infraorbital nerve (CCI-ION) to study whether CCI-ION caused calcium channel α2δ1 ...

Bioprinted Excitable Tissues with Multistimulation Systems for Promoting Function and Maturation

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
This review provides an overview of stimulation strategies used to enhance the functional maturation of bioprinted excitable tissues. It addresses key limitations in physiological performance of bioprinted excitable tissues, outlines major stimulation modalities—including electrical, mechanical, optical, magnetic, ultrasound, and hybrid—and examines ...
