    Neural Stem Cell Transplantation Promotes Functional Recovery from Traumatic Brain Injury via Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor-Mediated Neuroplasticity

    Traumatic brain injury (TBI) induces cognitive impairments, motor and behavioral deficits. Previous evidences have suggested that neural stem cell (NSC) transplantation could facilitate functional recovery fro...

    Firing Pattern Modulation Through SK Channel Current Increase Underlies Neuronal Survival in an Organotypic Slice Model of Parkinson’s Disease

    Dopaminergic (DA) neurons in substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) are vulnerable to excitotoxicity in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Neurotoxic stimuli may alter the firing patterns of DA neurons. However, whether ...

    Prognostic Value of Mannose-Binding Lectin: 90-Day Outcome in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke

    Complement activation and inflammation have been suggested in the pathogenesis of stroke; mannose-binding lectin (MBL) was found to have roles during the process. We therefore evaluated the short-term prognost...

    Decreased Astroglial Monocarboxylate Transporter 4 Expression in Temporal Lobe Epilepsy

    Efflux of monocaroxylates like lactate, pyruvate, and ketone bodies from astrocytes through monocarboxylate transporter 4 (MCT4) supplies the local neuron population with metabolic intermediates to meet energy...

    Differential expression of VGLUT1 or VGLUT2 in the trigeminothalamic or trigeminocerebellar projection neurons in the rat

    The vesicular glutamate transporters, VGLUT1 and VGLUT2, reportedly display complementary distribution in the rat brain. However, co-expression of them in single neurons has been reported in some brain areas. ...

    Progress on stem cell research towards the treatment of Parkinson's disease

    Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the progressive accumulation of Lewy body inclusions along with selective destruction of dopaminergic (DA) neurons in the nigrostriatal...

    SK- and h-current contribute to the generation of theta-like resonance of rat substantia nigra pars compacta dopaminergic neurons at hyperpolarized membrane potentials

    Oscillation activities are the feature of neural network and correlated to different physiological states. The theta (θ) oscillation (2–7 Hz) has been reported in the basal ganglia, and the intrinsic resonance pr...
