Noise exposure alters MMP9 and brevican expression in the rat primary auditory cortex
Published in BMC Neuroscience
BackgroundThis study aimed to investigate the changes in molecules related to perineuronal nets (PNNs) and synaptic transporters in the primary auditory cortices of rats with noise-induced hearing loss. Female Sprague–Dawley rats at postnatal day 7 were divided into the noise and control groups. Four hours of 115 dB SPL white noise was delivered fo...
The role of C-afferents in mediating neurogenic vasodilatation in plantar skin after acute sciatic nerve injury in rats
Published in BMC Neuroscience
BackgroundVasomotor regulation of dermal blood vessels, which are critical in the function of the skin in thermoregulatory control, involves both neural and non-neural mechanisms. Whereas the role of sympathetic nerves in regulating vasomotor activities is comprehensively studied and well recognized, that of sensory nerves is underappreciated. Stud...
When gratitude and cooperation between friends affect inter-brain connectivity for EEG
Published in BMC Neuroscience
BackgroundRecently several studies in the psychological and social field have investigated the social function of gift exchange as a useful way for the consolidation of interpersonal and social relationships and the implementation of prosocial behaviors. Specifically, the present research wanted to explore if gift exchange, increased emotional shar...
Intravenous methylprednisolone or immunoglobulin for anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 antibody autoimmune encephaliti...
Published in BMC Neuroscience
BackgroundPatients positive for anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 (GAD65) antibodies have attracted increasing attention. Their clinical manifestations are highly heterogeneous and can be comorbid with tumors. Currently, there is no consensus on the therapeutic regimen for anti-GAD65-associated neurological diseases due to the clinical complexity...
Dopamine response gene pathways in dorsal striatum MSNs from a gene expression viewpoint: cAMP-mediated gene networks
Published in BMC Neuroscience
BackgroundMedium spiny neurons (MSNs) comprise the main body (95% in mouse) of the dorsal striatum neurons and represent dopaminoceptive GABAergic neurons. The cAMP (cyclic Adenosine MonoPhosphate)—mediated cascade of excitation and inhibition responses observed in MSN intracellular signal transduction is crucial for neuroscience research due to it...
Neuropathological changes in dorsal root ganglia induced by pyridoxine in dogs
Published in BMC Neuroscience
BackgroundPyridoxine (PDX; vitamin B6), is an essential vitamin. PDX deficiency induces various symptoms, and when PDX is misused it acts as a neurotoxicant, inducing severe sensory neuropathy.ResultsTo assess the possibility of creating a reversible sensory neuropathy model using dogs, 150 mg/kg of PDX was injected subcutaneously into dogs for 7 d...
Correction to: Wnt3a induces exosome secretion from primary cultured rat microglia
Published in BMC Neuroscience
Following the publication of this article [1], it has been noted by the authors that an image of the same cell nuclei has been used in error twice, in Fig. 8, parts A and B. These images are redundant in this figure as the images in parts D and E show Wnt3a treated and control cells stained with both Hoechst 33342 (as in parts A and B) and fluoresc...
Neuromyelitis optica: a pilot study of clinical presentation and status of serological biomarker AQP4 among patients adm...
Published in BMC Neuroscience
BackgroundNeuromyelitis optica (NMO) is a demyelinating disease primarily affecting the optic nerves and spinal cord. It is distinguished from other demyelinating conditions by the presence of AQP4-IgG and serum aquaporin 4 (AQP4), found mainly in the blood–brain barrier. This descriptive study was conducted from January 2015 to June 2018 at the Na...
Suppression of behavioral activity and hippocampal noradrenaline caused by surgical stress in type 2 diabetes model mice...
Published in BMC Neuroscience
BackgroundThere has been much discussion recently about the occurrence of neuropsychological complications during the perioperative period. Diabetes is known to be one of the metabolic risk factors. Although the number of patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) has been increasing, the pathophysiology of postoperative neuropsychological dysfunction in...
