X11α impairs γ- but not β-cleavage of amyloid precursor protein
(Blackwell Science Ltd, 2004-02)
The phosphotyrosine binding domain of the neuronal protein X11α/mint-1 binds to the C-terminus of amyloid precursor protein (APP) and inhibits catabolism to β-amyloid (Aβ), but the mechanism of this effect is unclear. ...

(Wiley Periodicals, Inc.American Psychiatric Association, 2017-07)
The Yale Food Addiction Scale (YFAS) operationalizes indicators of addictive‐like eating, originally based on the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders 4th edition Text Revision (DSM‐IV‐TR) criteria for ...
Interleukin-1β modulates state-dependent discharge activity of preoptic area and basal forebrain neurons: role in sleep regulation
(Blackwell Science Ltd, 2004-07)
Interleukin-1β (IL-1) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that has been implicated in the regulation of nonrapid eye movement (nonREM) sleep. IL-1, IL-1 receptors and the IL-1 receptor antagonist (ra) are present normally in ...

Conditional ablation and recovery of forebrain neurogenesis in the mouse
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2009-06-20)
Forebrain neurogenesis persists throughout life in the rodent subventricular zone (SVZ) and hippocampal dentate gyrus (DG). Several strategies have been employed to eliminate adult neurogenesis and thereby determine whether ...
