Abstract Increased inflammation in major depressive disorder (MDD) has been associated with low functional connectivity (FC) corticostriatal reward circuits and symptoms of anhedonia, relationships which may involve the impact on synthesis release dopamine. To test this hypothesis while establishing a platform to examine target engagement potential therapies patients increased inflammation, medically stable unmedicated adult MDD outpatients enrolled have range (as indexed by plasma...
Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has improved prognosis for people living with HIV (PLWH) and dramatically reduced the incidence of AIDS. However, even when viral load is controlled, PLWH develop psychiatric neurological disorders more frequently than those without HIV. Adolescents are particularly susceptible to development illnesses neurocognitive impairments. While both have been found be exacerbated by stress, extent which chronic stress HIV-1 proteins interact impact...
A micro-engineered physiological system-tissue barrier chip (MEPS-TBC) has been developed as a highly replicable model of the human blood–brain (BBB) with 3D perivascular space using tunable aspiration technique.
The incidence of depression and anxiety disorders is twice as high in women than men; however, females exhibit less neuronal damage following an equivalent ischemic event. Microembolic stroke increases anxiety- depressive-like behaviors male rats but the behavioral repercussions are unknown. Given relative protection from ovary-intact females, female exposed to microembolic may be behaviorally protected compared males. data presented demonstrate that anxiety-like behavior increased males...
