Stress is a major influence on mental health status; the ways that individuals respond to or copes with stressors determine whether they are negatively affected in future. responses established by an interplay between genetics, environment, and life experiences. Psychosocial stress particularly impactful during adolescence, critical period for development of mood disorders. In this study we compared two established, selectively-bred Sprague Dawley rat lines, "internalizing" bred Low...
Transcriptional profiling has become a common tool for investigating the nervous system. During analysis, differential expression results are often compared to functional ontology databases, which contain curated gene sets representing well-studied pathways. This dependence can cause neuroscience studies be interpreted in terms of pathways documented better studied tissues (
Long Covid is a debilitating condition that has been well-documented over the past 4 years and shares many similarities with other post-viral chronic illnesses. Despite this, clinicians are not confident in recognising signs of Covid, or effectively managing symptoms their patients. This paper presents single patient case report from biomedical researcher who had for 2 years; it written relatively plain language to be accessible both patients across multiple specialities. The author ability...
Environmental enrichment can dramatically influence the development and function of neural circuits. Further, has been shown to successfully delay onset symptoms in models Huntington's disease 1-4, suggesting environmental factors evoke a neuroprotective effect against progressive, cellular level damage observed neurodegenerative disorders. The ways which an animal be environmentally enriched, however, vary considerably. there is no straightforward manner effects assessed: most methods...
Environmental enrichment can dramatically affect both the development and function of neural circuits. This is accomplished, at least in part, by regulation inhibitory cellular networks related extracellular matrix glycoprotein structures known as perineuronal nets. The degree to which enhanced housing influence brain areas involved planning execution actions not well known. We examined effect enriching mice from birth on parvalbumin expression net formation developing adult striatum. input...
