(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 ...
Cellular neurochemical characterization and subcellular localization of Phospholipase C-β1 in rat brain
(Elsevier, 2012-10-11)
The present study describes a complete and detailed neuroanatomical distribution map of the phospholipase C beta1 (PLCβ1) isoform along the adult rat neuraxis, and defines the phenotype of cells expressing PLCβ1, along ...
Traumatic Brain Injury-induced alterations in Adult Hippocampal Neurogenesis
(2023-01-20)
Several important cognitive functions affected by traumatic brain injury (TBI) depend on the hippocampus, which harnesses several forms of neural plasticity, among them adult neurogenesis, the generation of new neurons ...
Up-regulation of CB1 Cannabinoid Receptors Located at Glutamatergic Terminals in the Medial Prefrontal Cortex of the Obese Zucker Rat.
(Frontiers Media, 2022-10-18)
The present study describes a detailed neuroanatomical distribution map of the cannabinoid type 1 (CB1) receptor, along with the biochemical characterization of the expression and functional coupling to their cognate G i/o ...
Microglial immune response is impaired against the neurotropic fungus Lomentospora prolificans
(Wiley, 2018-03-26)
Lomentospora (Scedosporium) prolificans is an opportunistic pathogen capable of causing invasive infections in immunocompromised patients. The fungus is able to disseminate via the bloodstream finally arriving at the central ...
Synaptic alterations in the hippocampus of an animal model of progressive parkinsonism and the effect of dopaminergic treatments
(2022-03-04)
This Ph.D. project is focused on the characterization of pathological events in the hippocampus, which could be related to non-motor manifestation in Parkinson's disease such as behavioral and memory impairments. For that ...
Pharmacogenetics of MicroRNAs and MicroRNAs Biogenesis Machinery in Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
(Public Library Science, 2014-03-10)
Despite the clinical success of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) therapy, toxicity is frequent. Therefore, it would be useful to identify predictors of adverse effects. In the last years, several studies have investigated ...
Age‐related cognitive decline in myotonic dystrophy type 1: An 11‐year longitudinal follow‐up study
(Wiley, 2020-03)
Background Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is an inherited multi-systemic disease involving the central nervous system (CNS) and is consequently characterized by a range of cognitive impairments. However, whether this ...
Prognostic factors for falls in Parkinson’s disease: a systematic review
(Springer Nature, 2024)
Background Falls represent a critical concern in Parkinson’s disease (PD), contributing to increased morbidity and reduced
quality of life.
Purpose We conducted a systematic review to assess the prognostic factors ...
Cross-cultural adaptation and psychometric validation of a Spanish version of the Maryland Assessment of Recovery Scale (MARS-12)
(PLoS, 2024)
The aim of this study was to adapt and validate a Spanish version of the Maryland Assessment of Recovery Scale (MARS-12). It was carried out in strict accordance with internationally recognized guidelines for test adaptation. ...
