Renovating Neural Networks With Viral‐Mediated Gene Transfer From A Tissue Contacting Matrix Mimic

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Fmoc‐DDIKVAV self‐assembling peptidemediated delivery of AAV‐BDNF significantly enhances neuroprotection in the striatum of a mouse model compared with AAV‐BDNF injection alone. This synergistic integration of biomaterial scaffolding and gene therapy holds substantial promise for slowing the progression of neurodegenerative diseases such as Huntington ...

Dysfunctional play and dopamine physiology in the Fischer 344 rat

open access: yes, 2011
Juvenile Fischer 344 rats are known to be less playful than other inbred strains, although the neurobiological substrate(s) responsible for this phenotype is uncertain.

Endocannabinoid system gene expression in mesocorticolimbic brain regions of individuals with alcohol use disorder: A descriptive study

open access: yesAddiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims To describe differences in the expression of genes encoding cannabinoid receptors (CNR1, CNR2), the associated receptor GRP55 and the enzymes fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) and monoacylglycerol lipase (MGLL) between individuals with alcohol use disorder (AUD) and controls in key mesocorticolimbic brain regions.

Bidirectional genetic and phenotypic links between smoking and striatal iron content involving dopaminergic and inflammatory pathways

open access: yesAddiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aims Tobacco smoking is a major risk factor for cardiovascular and lung diseases. A better understanding of its neurobiological underpinnings will benefit the prevention of smoking‐related illnesses and mortality. Previous studies link smoking to increased iron concentration in the striatum, a central component of the brain's ...

Rare but relevant: Ibogaine and cardiovascular complications—prolonged QT interval and ventricular arrhythmias

open access: yesAddiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Revived interest in psychedelic‐assisted therapies has also renewed focus on ibogaine, a psychoactive alkaloid, for its notable anti‐addictive potential. Evidence from observational, open‐label, and limited randomized placebo‐controlled trials indicates that ibogaine and its metabolite noribogaine reduce craving and withdrawal symptoms in ...

The Age of Striatum Determines the Pattern and Extent of Dopaminergic Innervation: a Nigrostriatal Double Graft Study

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 1997
In animal models of Parkinson's disease, transplanted fetal mesencephalic dopaminergic neurons can innervate the dopamine-depleted host brain, but it is unclear why large portions of the host striatum are left uninnervated. During normal development, the

Rapid generation of prion disease models using AAV‐delivered PrP variants in knockout mice

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
We developed a rapid AAV‐based system to generate prion disease models in weeks rather than months. Following systemic AAV9P31 delivery of modified PrP to knockout mice, we achieved brain‐wide expression and successful propagation of both classical (RML) and atypical (GSS‐A117V) prion strains.

Psilocybin as a novel treatment for chronic pain

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Psychedelic drugs are under active consideration for clinical use and have generated significant interest for their potential as anti‐nociceptive treatments for chronic pain, and for addressing conditions like depression, frequently co‐morbid with pain.

Differences in brain activity induced by imagination of real world and online world activities

open access: yesCogent Psychology
The present study investigated if there are differences in the neural activity of the healthy human brain during the imagination of activities from the real world in comparison to the imagination of activities from the online world. Using functional MRI,
