The endogenous cannabinoid system controls extinction of aversive memories
Acquisition and storage of aversive memories is one of the basic principles of central nervous systems throughout the animal kingdom1. In the absence of reinforcement, the resulting behavioural response will grad...

Open AccessPavlovian fear memory induced by activation in the anterior cingulate cortex
Identifying higher brain central region(s) that are responsible for the unpleasantness of pain is the focus of many recent studies. Here we show that direct stimulation of the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) i...

SHANK3 overexpression causes manic-like behaviour with unique pharmacogenetic properties
Mutations in SHANK3 and large duplications of the region spanning SHANK3 both cause a spectrum of neuropsychiatric disorders, indicating that proper SHANK3 dosage is critical for normal brain function. However, S...

Open AccessSynthesis of didodecylmethyl hydroxyl sulfobetaine and its evaluation for alkali-free flooding
In this paper, didodecylmethyl hydroxyl sulfobetaine was synthesized by reaction of didodecylmethyl amine with sodium 2-hydroxy-3-chloro propanesulfate. The interfacial tensions between Dagang crude oil and so...

Forniceal deep brain stimulation rescues hippocampal memory in Rett syndrome mice
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the fimbria–fornix—a region that provides input to the hippocampus—is shown to restore hippocampus-dependent memory and hippocampal long-term potentiation and neurogenesis in a ...

Reversal of phenotypes in MECP2 duplication mice using genetic rescue or antisense oligonucleotides
Genetic correction of MeCP2 levels largely reversed the behavioural, molecular and physiological deficits associated with MECP2 duplication syndrome in a transgenic mouse model; similarly, reduction of MeCP2 leve...

Open AccessDifferential control of syndepositional faults on sequence stratigraphy and depositional systems during main rift I stage in the southeastern fault zone of Qingxi Sag, Jiuquan Basin, Northwestern China
In active rift basins, syndepositional faults exert a major control on sequence stratigraphic patterns and depositional system features, which together determine reservoir distribution, geometry, and quality. ...

Imputation based statistical inference for partially linear quantile regression models with missing responses
In this paper, we consider the confidence interval construction for partially linear quantile regression models with missing response at random. We propose an imputation based empirical likelihood method to co...

A MPC-Based PEV Charging Scheduling
Recall that in Chap. 2, the controller of PEV charging station relies on no assumptions nor predictions of the future information. Whereas in this chapter, we study another practical scenario, where the non-ca...
