A Review of the Effects of Maternal and Paternal Obesity on Neurodevelopmental Disorders and Related Neurobiology in Rodent and Human Offspring

open access: yesObesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obesity is one of the most prevalent health problems worldwide, and global obesity rates continue to rise. Consequently, rates of obesity in expecting mothers and fathers have also increased. The Developmental Origins of Health and Disease (DOHaD) hypothesis postulates that early‐life exposure to adverse environmental conditions contributes to

Lifelong nutritional omega-3 deficiency evokes depressive-like state through soluble beta amyloid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Recent evidence pointed out that the prevalence of depression has reached epidemic proportions in last decades. This increase has been linked to many environmental factors, among these the influence of dietary factors has gained great attention.

Estradiol induces BDNF/TrkB signaling in triple-negative breast cancer to promote brain metastases

open access: yesOncogene, 2019
Breast cancer brain metastases (BM) affect younger women disproportionally, including those lacking estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor, and HER2 (known as triple-negative breast cancer; TNBC). Previous studies in preclinical models showed that

Sensory and Sympathetic Nerve Localization in Mouse Temporomandibular Joint and Knee Joint Neuro‐Musculoskeletal Tissues

open access: yesOrthodontics &Craniofacial Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Sympathetic‐sensory coupling is increasingly implicated in joint homeostasis and disease. Towards the long‐term goal of deciphering its role in temporomandibular disorders (TMDs), we characterised the spatial relationships of sympathetic and sensory nerves and their receptors in the mouse temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and trigeminal ...

Cooperation of neurotrophin receptor TrkB and Her2 in breast cancer cells facilitates brain metastases

open access: yesBreast Cancer Research, 2017
Background Patients with primary breast cancer that is positive for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her2+) have a high risk of developing metastases in the brain.

The truncated TrkB receptor influences mammalian sleep

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 2015
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a neurotrophin hypothesized to play an important role in mammalian sleep expression and regulation. In order to investigate the role of the truncated receptor for BDNF, TrkB.T1, in mammalian sleep, we examined sleep architecture and sleep regulation in adult mice constitutively lacking this receptor. We find

The central benefit of physiologically induced ketogenic states

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend This review describes the association between ketogenic states induced by physiological interventions such as fasting or aerobic exercise, exogenous ketone supply and ketogenic diets, as well as increased cognition through increased activity of brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF).

My career in molecular biology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Norman Davidson's training as a physical chemist led him to make key early contributions to the chemistry of DNA. He described the details of DNA denaturation and renaturation, concepts that still form the basis for understanding hybridization.

Enviromimetics: From exercise mimetics to cognitomimetics in the quest for enhanced brain health and cognition

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A schematic diagram outlining the concept of enviromimetics, and the subclasses of exercise mimetics, epimimetics and cognitomimetics. The rationale is that environmental stimulation and lifestyle factors, including physical activity and cognitive stimulation, have shown beneficial effects across a range of human conditions ...

Cyclotraxin-B, the first highly potent and selective TrkB inhibitor, has anxiolytic properties in mice.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
In the last decades, few mechanistically novel therapeutic agents have been developed to treat mental and neurodegenerative disorders. Numerous studies suggest that targeting BDNF and its TrkB receptor could be a promising therapeutic strategy for the ...
