Battery‐Free Dual‐Channel Wireless Neurostimulator Using Passive Circuitry for Neuropathic Pain Modulation

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A compact, wireless neural stimulator featuring a novel tapping inductor enables selective and independent stimulation of the motor cortex in rats via a single receiver coil. This minimally invasive system effectively reduces neuropathic pain through targeted cortical activation, offering a new avenue for bioelectronic pain therapies and advancing ...

Wisteria Floribunda Agglutinin-Labeled Perineuronal Nets in the Mouse Inferior Colliculus, Thalamic Reticular Nucleus and Auditory Cortex

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2016
Perineuronal nets (PNNs) are specialized extracellular matrix molecules that are associated with the closing of the critical period, among other functions. In the adult brain, PNNs surround specific types of neurons, however the expression of PNNs in the

From Rigid to Soft Robotic Approaches for Neuroendoscopy

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robotic assistance has had minimal impact on deep intraventricular surgeries, where small‐scale, precision, and reduced invasiveness can contribute to improved patient outcomes. Emerging technologies in rigid, soft, and hybrid robotics are reviewed to identify the most promising mechanisms for deep brain navigation in addition to an attempt to identify

Regular versus Irregular Exercise Differentially Modulates Hippocampal‐Hepatic Acetylcholine Flux to Coordinate Fear Memory Extinction and Liver Inflammation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Ma et al. report the hippocampal and hepatic acetylcholine (ACh) levels are differently modulated by regular versus irregular exercise, which contributes to coordinate hippocampal astrocyte activity and hepatic FBXL6high neutrophil recruitment. This ACh‐modulated brain‐liver circuit links the effects of exercise on fear memory extinction and liver ...

Altered Primary Motor Cortex Neuronal Activity in a Rat Model of Harmaline-Induced Tremor During Thalamic Deep Brain Stimulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
Although deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a clinically effective surgical treatment for essential tremor (ET), and its neurophysiological mechanisms are not fully understood.

Pigment Epithelium‐Derived Factor Deficiency Impairs Hippocampal Glutamate Homeostasis and Cognitive Function by Downregulating Astrocytic GLT‐1

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The chronic glutamate‐induced excitotoxicity hypothesis has profoundly informed the therapeutic strategies employed in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). This study shows pigment epithelium‐derived factor (PEDF) regulates astrocytic glutamate transporter‐1 (GLT‐1)‐mediated glutamate homeostasis and cognition. Reduced PEDF correlates with lower Mini‐Mental State

A Replicable and Generalizable Neuroimaging‐Based Indicator of Pain Sensitivity Across Individuals

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Humans differ in their sensitivity to pain. With six large and diverse fMRI datasets (total N = 1046), this study finds that such individual differences in pain sensitivity can be tracked by fMRI responses to painful stimuli. A highly generalizable machine learning model is further built to predict pain sensitivity across all datasets and analgesic ...

Ventricular volume adjustment of brain regions depicts brain changes associated with HIV infection and aging better than intracranial volume adjustment

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology
IntroductionWhile the adjustment of intracranial volume (ICV) is reported to have a significant influence in the outcomes of the analyses of brain structural measures, our study offers a paradigm shift, positing that adjusting for lateral ventricle (LV ...

T-type calcium channel and Kir 4.1 potassium channel gene expression in thalamic reticular nucleus and somatosensory cortex of WAG/Rij rat strain

open access: yesБіологічні студії, 2015
WAG/Rij rat strain is inherited model of human childhood absence epilepsy. Genetic mechanisms of seizures are unknown but it was shown that reticular thalamic nucleus (RTn) and somatosensory cortex (’cortical focus’) are involved in appearing of spike ...

Corticosterone Contributes to Context‐Triggered Retrieval of Morphine Withdrawal Memories by Acting on Basolateral Amygdala Neurons Projecting to Nucleus Accumbens Core

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Context associated with morphine withdrawal elicits an increase in serum corticosterone levels. Corticosterone participates in CTR‐MWM by acting on MR, but not GR, in the BLA. MR in BLA→NAcC neurons mediates CTR‐MWM. MR increases presynaptic glutamate release and meanwhile participates in D1 receptor‐induced increases in presynaptic glutamate release ...
