Delta(9)-Tetrahydrocannabinol Promotes Oligodendrocyte Development and CNS Myelination in Vivo
(Wiley, 2021-03)
Delta(9)-Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the main bioactive compound found in the plantCannabis sativa, exerts its effects by activating cannabinoid receptors present in many neural cells. Cannabinoid receptors are also ...
Outcomes associated with different vaccines in individuals with bipolar disorder and impact on the current COVID-19 pandemic- a systematic review
(Elsevier, 2022-01)
[EN] Bipolar disorder (BD) might be associated with higher infection rates of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) which in turn could result in worsening the clinical course and outcome. This may be due to a high prevalence of ...
Astrocytic Atrophy as a Pathological Feature of Parkinson's Disease with LRRK2 Mutation
(Springer, 2021-03-30)
The principal hallmark of Parkinson's disease (PD) is the selective neurodegeneration of dopaminergic neurones. Mounting evidence suggests that astrocytes may contribute to dopaminergic neurodegeneration through decreased ...
Global Self-Organization of the Cellular Metabolic Structure
(Public Library Science, 2008-08)
Background: Over many years, it has been assumed that enzymes work either in an isolated way, or organized in small catalytic groups. Several studies performed using "metabolic networks models'' are helping to understand ...
Contribution of Pannexin1 to Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis
(Public Library of Science, 2013-06)
Pannexin1 (Panx1) is a plasma membrane channel permeable to relatively large molecules, such as ATP. In the central nervous system (CNS) Panx1 is found in neurons and glia and in the immune system in macrophages and T-cells. ...
Arquitectura subcelular del sistema endocannabinoide en el núcleo ventromedial del hipotálamo de ratón
(2014-01-30)
El sistema endocannabinoide (eCB) es un complejo sistema endógeno de señalización, que participa en la modulación de la transmisión sináptica en múltiples circuitos cerebrales, incluyendo los que regulan el apetito, ingesta ...
Autophagy and phagocytosis: functional relationship in microglia.
(2022-07-21)
La microglía es el macrófago del cerebro, en constante vigilancia del parénquima cerebral para garantizar el mantenimiento de la homeostasis tisular. La microglía es ampliamente conocida por supapel como mediadora de la ...
Combining MRI and clinical data to detect high relapse risk after the first episode of psychosis.
(Nature, 2022)
Detecting patients at high relapse risk after the first episode of psychosis (HRR-FEP) could help the clinician adjust the preventive treatment. To develop a tool to detect patients at HRR using their baseline clinical and ...
Global Self-Regulation of the Cellular Metabolic Structure
(Public Library of Science, 2010-03-02)
Background: Different studies have shown that cellular enzymatic activities are able to self-organize spontaneously, forming a metabolic core of reactive processes that remain active under different growth conditions while ...
Pharmacological Blockade of Cannabinoid CB1 Receptors in Diet-Induced Obesity Regulates Mitochondrial Dihydrolipoamide Dehydrogenase in Muscle
(Public Library Science, 2015-12-15)
Cannabinoid CB1 receptors peripherally modulate energy metabolism. Here, we investigated the role of CB1 receptors in the expression of glucose/pyruvate/tricarboxylic acid (TCA) metabolism in rat abdominal muscle. ...
