Psychedelics Promote Structural and Functional Neural Plasticity. [PDF]

, 2018
Atrophy of neurons in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) plays a key role in the pathophysiology of depression and related disorders. The ability to promote both structural and functional plasticity in the PFC has been hypothesized to underlie the fast ...

Brain Health for Children

Brain Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The World Health Organization (WHO) defines brain health as the maintenance of optimal brain integrity, good mental state, and cognitive function without significant neuropsychiatric disease. Early childhood is a critical period for brain development, which were influenced by early experiences, nutrition, and environmental factors. Disruptions

The best-laid plans go oft awry: synaptogenic growth factor signaling in neuropsychiatric disease

Frontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience, 2014
Growth factors play important roles in synapse formation. Mouse models of neuropsychiatric diseases suggest that defects in synaptogenic growth factors, their receptors, and signaling pathways can lead to disordered neural development and various ...

Fetal Pain Perception: Legislative Assertions and Developmental Neuroscience

Annals of the Child Neurology Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pain perception is a conscious experience, but neither pain nor consciousness is defined in the developing human fetus. Emergent consciousness may be regarded as a phenomenon that ultimately arises from an essential minimum of functional neuronal connectivity. Proposed U.S.

Increased expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy [PDF]

, 2014
Aim: The molecular mechanism of epileptogenesis in temporal lobe epilepsy is still unclear. Experimental studies have suggested that matrix metalloproteinases have important roles in this process, but human studies are limited.

Astrocytes regulating synaptogenesis [PDF]

Science, 2017
Neurodevelopment Brain circuitry develops as neurons connect at synapses. Farhy-Tselnicker et al. , studying retinal ganglion cells, explored the signaling pathways that ensure that such synapses are timely and meaningful. In the developing mouse visual system, astrocytes are in place and expressing glypican as the synapses begin to form.

The Influence of Omega‐3 Fatty Acids and Probiotics on Hippocampal Inflammation and Glial Cells in a Chronic Anorexia Nervosa Rat Model

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a severe eating disorder associated with brain volume reduction, glial cell loss, microbiome alterations, and dysregulated pro‐inflammatory mechanisms. However, the underlying cellular mechanisms remain inadequately elucidated, and interventions addressing these alterations are lacking.

Morris Water Maze Learning in Two Rat Strains Increases the Expression of the Polysialylated Form of the Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule in the Dentate Gyrus But Has No Effect on Hippocampal Neurogenesis [PDF]

, 2005
In the current study, the authors investigated whether Morris water maze learning induces alterations in hippocampal neurogenesis or neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) polysialylation in the dentate gyrus.

New insights into epileptic spasm generation and treatment from the TTX animal model

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Currently, we have an incomplete understanding of the mechanisms underlying infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS). However, over the past decade, significant efforts have been made to develop IESS animal models to provide much‐needed mechanistic information for therapy development.
