Overview of Crosstalk Between Multiple Factor of Transcytosis in Blood Brain Barrier.
Blood brain barrier (BBB) conserves unique regulatory system to maintain barrier tightness while allowing adequate transport between neurovascular units. This mechanism possess a challenge for drug delivery, while abnormality...
Peak Width of Skeletonized Mean Diffusivity as a Marker of Diffuse Cerebrovascular Damage.
The peak width of skeletonized mean diffusivity (PSMD) has been proposed as a fully automated imaging marker of relevance to cerebral small vessel disease (SVD). We assessed PSMD in relation to conventional SVD markers, global...
Axonal Endoplasmic Reticulum Dynamics and Its Roles in Neurodegeneration.
The physical continuity of axons over long cellular distances poses challenges for their maintenance. One organelle that faces this challenge is endoplasmic reticulum (ER); unlike other intracellular organelles, this forms a...
Virus-Induced Maternal Immune Activation as an Environmental Factor in the Etiology of Autism and Schizophrenia.
Maternal immune activation (MIA) is mediated by activation of inflammatory pathways resulting in increased levels of cytokines and chemokines that cross the placental and blood-brain barriers altering fetal neural development....
Twice-Daily Theta Burst Stimulation of the Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex Reduces Methamphetamine Craving
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) holds potential promise as a therapeutic modality for disorders of addiction. Our previous findings indicate that high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) over...
A Role of Cholesterol in Modulating the Binding of α-Synuclein to Synaptic-Like Vesicles.
α-Synuclein (αS) is a presynaptic protein whose aggregation is associated with Parkinson's disease (PD). Although the physiological function of αS is still unclear, several lines of evidence indicate that this protein may play a...
