Association of Notch-1, osteopontin and stem-like cells in ENU-glioma malignant process
(Impact Journals LLC, 2018-07-31)
Notch-1 and osteopontin (OPN) mediate angiogenesis and glioma stem-like cell (GSLC) maintenance. However, the relationship between these molecules and GSLCs during the development of glioma is unknown. We investigate the ...
Increased physical activity is not enough to recover astrocytic population from dark-rearing. Synergy with multisensory enrichment is required
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2013-10-04)
Elimination of sensory inputs (deprivation) modifies the properties of the sensory cortex and serves as a model for studying plasticity during postnatal development. Many studies on the effects of deprivation have been ...
Increased antiparkinson efficacy of the combined administration of VEGF- and GDNF-loaded nanospheres in a partial lesion model of Parkinson's disease
(Dove Medical Press, 2014)
Current research efforts are focused on the application of growth factors, such as glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), as neuroregenerative approaches that will ...
Enriched Environment Reverts Somatostatin Interneuron Loss in MK-801 Model of Schizophrenia
(Springer, 2019-09-10)
Dysregulation of the inhibitory drive has been proposed to be a central mechanism to explain symptoms and pathophysiological hallmarks in schizophrenia. A number of recent neuroanatomical studies suggest that certain types ...
Short-Term Exposure to Enriched Environment in Adult Rats Restores MK-801-Induced Cognitive Deficits and GABAergic Interneuron Immunoreactivity Loss
(Springer Science, 2018-01-01)
Perinatal injections of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist in rodents emulate some cognitive impairments and neurochemical alterations, such as decreased GABAergic (gamma aminobutyric acid) interneuron ...
Effects of adult enriched environment on cognition, hippocampal- prefrontal plasticity and NMDAR subunit expression in MK-801- induced schizophrenia model
(Elsevier, 2019-05-01)
Schizophrenia is a mental disorder characterized by psychosis, negative symptoms and cognitive impairment. Cognitive deficits are enduring and represent the most disabling symptom but are currently poorly treated. N-methyl ...
