Objective: Dual diagnosis (DD) is the co-occurrence of at least one substance use disorder and one or more mental disorders in a given indiv … uicides with DD to suicides without mental comorbidities, we identified 330 DEG, mainly enriched in neurogenesis. Cell type enrichment indicated higher levels of glial markers in suicides with DD compared to the other groups. Conclusions: Suicides with DD exhibited a gene expression profile distinct from that of suicides with a single disorder, being substance …

Proteomes analysis reveals the involvement of autophagy in AD-like neuropathology induced by noise exposure and ApoE4.

Structural magnetic resonance imaging studies have documented reduced gray matter in acutely ill patients with anorexia nervosa to be at lea … chronic. This provides evidence drawing previously speculated mechanisms such as (de-)hydration and neurogenesis into question and suggests that neuronal and/or glial remodeling including changes in macromolecular content may underlie the gray matter alterations observed in anorexia nervosa.

Neuroinflammation and Depression: Microglia Activation, Extracellular Microvesicles and microRNA Dysregulation.

Patients with chronic inflammation are often associated with the emergence of depression symptoms, while diagnosed depressed patients show i … . Indeed, recent data reveal that microglia play an important role in managing neuronal cell death, neurogenesis, and synaptic interactions, besides their involvement in immune-response generating cytokines. The communication between microglia and neurons is essential to synchronize these diverse functions with brain activity. Evidence is accumulating that sec …

SOX11 identified by target gene evaluation of miRNAs differentially expressed in focal and non-focal brain tissue of therapy-resistant epilepsy patients.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that post-transcriptionally control the expression of their target genes via RNA interference. There is increasing evidence that expression of miRNAs is dysregulated in neuronal disorders, including epilepsy, a chronic neurological disorder characterized by spontaneous recurrent seizures. Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) is a common type of focal epilepsy in which disease-induced abnormalities of hippocampal neurogenesis in the subgranular zone as well as gliosis and neuronal cell loss in the cornu ammonis area are reported. We hypothesized that…

These results were specific for valproate treatment and--based on the following two observations--most likely due to the inhibition of histone deacetylase (HDAC) activity: (i) we did not observe any ind …

Lycium barbarum berries, also named wolfberry, Fructus lycii, and Goji berries, have been used in the People's Republic of China and other A … other neurotoxic insults. LBPs ameliorate the symptoms of mice with Alzheimer's disease and enhance neurogenesis in the hippocampus and subventricular zone, improving learning and memory abilities. They reduce irradiation- or chemotherapy-induced organ toxicities. LBPs are beneficial to male reproduction by increasing the quality, quantity, and motility of spe …

Selective estrogen receptor-beta (SERM-beta) compounds modulate raphe nuclei tryptophan hydroxylase-1 (TPH-1) mRNA expression and cause antidepressant-like effects in the forced swim test.

Estrogen acts through two molecularly distinct receptors termed estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) and estrogen receptor beta (ERβ) which bind es … eptor protein. These compounds show activity in the murine forced swim test and promote hippocampal neurogenesis acutely in rats. Taken together these data suggest that ERβ may play an important role in modulating mood and the ERβ specific compounds described herein will be useful tools for probing the utility of an ERβ agonist for treating neuroendocrine-rela …

Потенциальная роль глюкагона peptide-1 (В тыс.GLP-1) в нейрозащите.

Нынешнее понимание нейродегенеративных процессов в таких спорадических заболеваниях, как болезнь Альцгеймера (AD), болезнь Паркинсона (PD) или множественный склероз, является весьма ограниченным. Было выявлено несколько факторов риска, которые могут пролить свет на механизмы, лежащие в основе нейродегенерации. Тип 2 В качестве фактора риска для AD и PD был определен сахарный диабет. У пациентов АД наблюдается десенсибилизация инсулиновых рецепторов в мозгу, даже у пациентов, не страдающих диабетом. Инсулин выступает в качестве фактора роста мозга и поддерживает нейронный ремонт, дендритическое

The renaissance of Ca2+-binding proteins in the nervous system: secretagogin takes center stage.

Effective control of the Ca(2+) homeostasis in any living cell is paramount to coordinate some of the most essential physiological processes … mitotic, migratory neurons in the embryonic nervous system. Secretagogin expression persists during neurogenesis in the adult brain, yet becomes confined to regionalized subsets of differentiated neurons in the adult central and peripheral nervous and neuroendocrine systems. Secretagogin may be implicated in the control of neuronal turnover and differentiation …

Post-ischemic hypothermia promotes generation of neural cells and reduces apoptosis by Bcl-2 in the striatum of neonatal rat brain.

Hypothermia is a potential therapy for cerebral hypoxic ischemic injury in adults and neonates. However, the mechanism of hypothermia neurop … cantly in the striatum at 1 and 2 weeks after HI in the hypothermia compared to normothermia group. Neurogenesis was assessed by double immunohistochemical/immunofluorescent labeling of BrdU with nestin, Tuj-1 or microtubule-associated protein 2 (Map-2). Newborn neural progenitors (BrdU(+)-nestin(+)) did not change dramatically, but newborn immature (BrdU(+)-T …

Effect of chronic morphine on the dentate gyrus neurogenic microenvironment.

Opiates, such as morphine, decrease neurogenesis in the postnatal hippocampal subgranular zone (SGZ) by inhibiting progenitor proliferation and maturation. However, it is not known how morphine influences the growth factors and vasculature that encompass the neurogenic SGZ microenvironment. We examined morphine's effect on pro- and anti-proliferative factors in the dentate gyrus (DG; Experiment 1) as well as the DG neurovasculature itself (Experiment 2). For Experiment 1, mice were implanted with subcutaneous sham or morphine pellets (0 and 48 h) and were decapitated 24 or 96 h later. One brai…

Rehabilitation approaches to stroke.

This article describes the state of the science in stroke rehabilitation dealing with three main topics: (1) General approach to stroke reha … the sensory motor cortex. The clinical data in humans are rather contradictory. Neural grafting and neurogenesis are new potential modes of stroke therapy. Neural grafting enhanced functional outcome and reduced thalamic atrophy in rats only when combined with housing in enriched environments. Recent studies have shown that stem cells can differentiate to neur …

Is obesity an inflammatory condition?

Obesity may be a low-grade systemic inflammatory disease. Overweight and obese children and adults have elevated serum levels of C-reactive … ansmitters. LCPUFAs may enhance the production of bone morphogenetic proteins, which participate in neurogenesis, so these fatty acids might play an important role in brain development and function. It is proposed that obesity is a result of inadequate breast feeding, which results in marginal deficiency of LCPUFAs during the critical stages of brain developme …

Altered levels of CaMKII, NF-κB and JAK2/STAT3 signaling in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex of female Wistar-Kyoto rats exposed to chronic mild stress.

INTRODUCTION: Inflammatory processes play a significant role in the pathogenesis of depression. Research shows that treatment-resistant depr … AK2/STAT3 levels during chronic mild stress may contribute to the impairments in neural plasticity, neurogenesis, and cellular resilience observed in the brains of WKY rats as a model of TRD.

Furthermore, SCO secretes transthyretin and basic fibroblast growth factor 2, while other identified molecules in the eCSF could potentially be secreted by the SCO. Additionally, various transcription factors have been identifi …

Stimulating myelin restoration with BDNF: a promising therapeutic approach for Alzheimer's disease.

Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disorder constituting the most common form of dementia (60%-70% of cases). Although … Neurotrophin-Factor (BDNF). BDNF is a neurotrophin that not only supports neuroprotection and adult neurogenesis, but also mediates pro-myelinating effects in the CNS. BDNF binds with high-affinity on the TrkB neurotrophin receptor and enhances myelination by increasing the density of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) and playing an important role in CNS …
