Drugs of abuse activate neuroimmune signaling in addiction-related regions of the brain, including the prefrontal cortex (PFC) which mediates executive control, attention, and behavioral inhibition. Traditional psychostimulants including methamphetamine and cocaine are known to induce PFC inflammation, yet the effects of synthetic cathinone derivat...

Introduction The dopaminergic system plays a key role in the appropriate functioning of the central nervous system, where it is essential for emotional balance, arousal, reward, and motor control. The cell adhesion molecule close homolog of L1 (CHL1) contributes to dopaminergic system development, and CHL1 and the dopamine receptor D2 (D2R) are ass...

Statistical learning is assumed to be a fundamentally general sensory process across modalities, age, other cognitive functions, and even species. Despite this general role, behavioral testing on regularity acquisition shows great variance among individuals. The current study aimed to find neural correlates of visual statistical learning showing a ...

Background Epilepsy is characterized by recurrent unprovoked seizures. Mutations in the voltage-gated sodium channel alpha subunit 1 (SCN1A) gene are the main monogenic cause of epilepsy. Type and location of variants make a huge difference in the severity of SCN1A disorder, ranging from the mild phenotype (genetic epilepsy with febrile seizures pl...

Navigating complex decisions and considering their relative risks and rewards is an important cognitive ability necessary for survival. However, use of and dependence on illicit drugs can result in long-lasting changes to this risk/reward calculus in individuals with substance use disorder. Recent work has shown that chronic exposure to cocaine cau...
