(MDPI, 2020-06-10)
Language plays an important role in psychiatric conditions. Language disturbances are core symptoms of psychiatric ailments, and language is the main diagnostic tool to assess psychopathological severity. Although the ...
Contribution of P2X4 Receptors to CNS Function and Pathophysiology
(MDPI, 2020-08-03)
The release and extracellular action of ATP are a widespread mechanism for cell-to-cell communication in living organisms through activation of P2X and P2Y receptors expressed at the cell surface of most tissues, including ...
Functional and Metabolic Characterization of Microglia Culture in a Defined Medium
(Frontiers Media, 2020-02-07)
Microglia are the endogenous immune cells of the brain and act as sensor of infection and pathologic injury to the brain, leading to a rapid plastic process of activation that culminates in the endocytosis and phagocytosis ...
Endocannabinoid LTD in Accumbal D1 Neurons Mediates Reward-Seeking Behavior
(Cell Press, 2020-03-27)
The nucleus accumbens (NAc) plays a key role in drug-related behavior and natural reward learning. Synaptic plasticity in dopamine D1 and D2 receptor medium spiny neurons (MSNs) of the NAc and the endogenous cannabinoid ...
P2X7 Receptors as a Therapeutic Target in Cerebrovascular Diseases
(Frontiers Media, 2020-06-18)
Shortage of oxygen and nutrients in the brain induces the release of glutamate and ATP that can cause excitotoxicity and contribute to neuronal and glial damage. Our understanding of the mechanisms of ATP release and ...

Gene Expression Analysis of Astrocyte and Microglia Endocannabinoid Signaling during Autoimmune Demyelination
(MDPI, 2020-08-24)
The endocannabinoid system is associated with protective effects in multiple sclerosis (MS) that involve attenuated innate immune cell responses. Astrocytes and microglia are modulated by endocannabinoids and participate ...
Translating big data to better treatment in bipolar disorder - a manifesto for coordinated action
(Elsevier, 2020-06-12)
[EN] Bipolar disorder (BD) is a major healthcare and socio-economic challenge. Despite its substan- tial burden on society, the research activity in BD is much smaller than its economic impact appears to demand. There is ...
