Forebrain Acetylcholine in Action: Dynamic Activities and Modulation on Target Areas
(2009)Forebrain cholinergic projection systems innervate the entire cortex and hippocampus. These cholinergic systems are involved in a wide range of cognitive and behavioral functions, including learning and memory, attention, ... -
Hippocampal Avoidance in Multitarget Radiosurgery.
(Cureus, 2021-06-02)Brain metastases are a common complication for patients diagnosed with cancer. As stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) becomes a more prevalent treatment option for patients with many brain metastases, further research is required ... -
Locales and Mechanisms of TrkB Activation Within Hippocampus
(2014)Understanding the mechanisms of limbic epileptogenesis in cellular and molecular terms may provide novel therapeutic targets for its prevention. The neurotrophin receptor tropomyosin-related kinase B (TrkB) is thought to ... -
Mechanisms by Which Early Nutrition Influences Spatial Memory, Adult Neurogenesis, and Response to Hippocampal Injury
(2010)Altered dietary availability of the vital nutrient choline during early development leads to persistent changes in brain and behavior throughout adulthood. Prenatal choline supplementation during embryonic days (ED) 12-17 ... -
Neurofunctional Characterization of the At-Risk Mental State for Psychosis
(2014)Schizophrenia is a complex and debilitating psychiatric illness characterized by positive symptoms like hallucinations and delusions and negative symptoms like blunting of affect, avolition, and poverty of thought. This ... -
Region-specific Mechanisms of Estrogen and Age on Neuronal Ensemble Activity During Spatial Navigation
(2010)Estradiol modulates the use of spatial navigation strategies in female rats. The presence of circulating estradiol enhances learning on tasks that require the use of a hippocampus-dependent place strategy and impairs learning ... -
Revealing context-specific conditioned fear memories with full immersion virtual reality.
(Front Behav Neurosci, 2011)The extinction of conditioned fear is known to be context-specific and is often considered more contextually bound than the fear memory itself (Bouton, 2004). Yet, recent findings in rodents have challenged the notion that ... -
Staying cool when things get hot: emotion regulation modulates neural mechanisms of memory encoding.
(Front Hum Neurosci, 2010)During times of emotional stress, individuals often engage in emotion regulation to reduce the experiential and physiological impact of negative emotions. Interestingly, emotion regulation strategies also influence memory ... -
TrkB-Shc Signaling Protects against Hippocampal Injury Following Status Epilepticus.
(The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience, 2019-06)Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is a common and commonly devastating form of human epilepsy for which only symptomatic therapy is available. One cause of TLE is an episode of de novo prolonged seizures [status epilepticus (SE)]. ...
