Transgene-mediated GDNF expression enhances synaptic connectivity and GABA transmission to improve functional outcome after spinal cord contusion
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010-04)
J. Neurochem. (2010) 10.1111/j.1471-4159.2010.06593.xGlial cell line-derived trophic factor (GDNF) is a peptide with pleiotropic survival and growth-promoting effects on neurons. We found that intraspinal injection of a ...
Cerebellar gray and white matter volume and their relation with age and manual motor performance in healthy older adults
(SpringerWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2015-06)
ObjectivesFunctional neuroimaging and voxel‐based morphometry studies have confirmed the important role of the cerebellum in motor behavior. However, little is known about the relationship between cerebellar gray (GMv) and ...
Opioid Regulation of Pair Bonding in the Socially Monogamous Prairie Vole.
(2014)
The socially monogamous prairie vole is an excellent animal model for studies of the neurobiology of selective social attachment. Here, we have demonstrated that monogamous bonds are formed and maintained by a balance ...
Mortality due to cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease, and cancer in adults with cerebral palsy
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc.WHO, 2019-08)
Simultaneous Multislice Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging.
(2016)
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a valuable tool for mapping brain activity in many fields. Since functional activity is determined by temporal signal changes, undesired fluctuations from physiological motion ...
Deterministic functions of cortical acetylcholine
(Vrije Universiteit BrusselsWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2014-06)
Traditional descriptions of the basal forebrain cholinergic projection system to the cortex have focused on neuromodulatory influences, that is, mechanisms that modulate cortical information processing but are not necessary ...
A Physiological Role for Hypothalamic Proopiomelanocortin in the Intrinsic Regulation of Locomotor Activity and Stress.
(2015)
Proopiomelanocortin (POMC) produced in the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus (Arc) has been studied extensively for its roles in the regulation of food intake and energy expenditure. POMC-derived peptides signal satiation and ...
Cortical thickness is not associated with current depression in a clinical treatment study
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc.Biophysics Research Institute, Medical College of Wisconsin, 2017-09)
BackgroundReduced cortical thickness is a candidate biological marker of depression, although findings are inconsistent. This could reflect analytic heterogeneity, such as use of region‐wise cortical thickness based on the ...
Neuronal Nogo‐A regulates glutamate receptor subunit expression in hippocampal neurons
(Blackwell Publishing LtdWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2011-12)
Nogo‐A and its cognate receptor NogoR1 (NgR1) are both expressed in neurons. To explore the function of these proteins in neurons of the CNS, we carried out a series of studies using postnatal hippocampal neurons in culture. ...
