Inhibiting proBDNF to mature BDNF conversion leads to ASD-like phenotypes in vivo
Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) comprise a range of early age-onset neurodevelopment disorders with genetic heterogeneity. Most ASD related genes are involved in synaptic function, which is regulated by mature...

Open AccessAn ensemble learning model for continuous cognition assessment based on resting-state EEG
One critical manifestation of neurological deterioration is the sign of cognitive decline. Causes of cognitive decline include but are not limited to: aging, cerebrovascular disease, Alzheimer’s disease, and t...

Open AccessMechanical behavior and reloading reinforcement characteristics of fractured coal under low confining pressure
To study the basic mechanical behavior and the reloading reinforcement characteristics of fractured coal, conventional triaxial loading tests with different fissure angle were first carried out. On this basis,...

Open AccessTrkB agonist antibody ameliorates fertility deficits in aged and cyclophosphamide-induced premature ovarian failure model mice
Premature ovarian failure (POF) is a leading cause of women’s infertility without effective treatment. Here we show that intravenous injection of Ab4B19, an agonistic antibody for the BDNF receptor TrkB, penet...

Open AccessAn App knock-in rat model for Alzheimer’s disease exhibiting Aβ and tau pathologies, neuronal death and cognitive impairments
A major obstacle in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) research is the lack of predictive and translatable animal models that reflect disease progression and drug efficacy. Transgenic mice overexpressing amyloid precurs...

Open AccessAstrocytic microdomains from mouse cortex gain molecular control over long-term information storage and memory retention
Memory consolidation requires astrocytic microdomains for protein recycling; but whether this lays a mechanistic foundation for long-term information storage remains enigmatic. Here we demonstrate that persist...

Open AccessHumoral immune response to circulating SARS-CoV-2 variants elicited by inactivated and RBD-subunit vaccines
SARS-CoV-2 variants could induce immune escape by mutations on the receptor-binding domain (RBD) and N-terminal domain (NTD). Here we report the humoral immune response to circulating SARS-CoV-2 variants, such...

Tunable Second Harmonic Generation in Antiferromagnetic Photonic Crystal with Graphene
The generation of second harmonic (SH) in the structure (SiO2/MnF2/graphene)N/ZrO2 has been investigated with the matrix transfer method. The theoretical simulation results show that the effect of the graphene (G...

Enhancement of second harmonic generation in MnF2/graphene sandwich structure
We propose an efficient method for increasing the second harmonic (SH) generation by embedding the graphene (Gr) in SiO2/MnF2/ZnF2 sandwich structure. The external magnetic field is perpendicular to the surface o...

Functional Role of BDNF Production from Unique Promoters in Aggression and Serotonin Signaling
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) regulates diverse biological functions ranging from neuronal survival and differentiation during development to synaptic plasticity and cognitive behavior in the adult....

Open AccessExtracellular and intracellular cleavages of proBDNF required at two distinct stages of late-phase LTP
Although late-phase long-term potentiation (L-LTP) is implicated in long-term memory, its molecular mechanisms are largely unknown. Here we provide evidence that L-LTP can be divided into two stages: an induct...

Open AccessActivity-dependent brain-derived neurotrophic factor expression regulates cortistatin-interneurons and sleep behavior
Sleep homeostasis is characterized by a positive correlation between sleep length and intensity with the duration of the prior waking period. A causal role for brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in sleep...

Open AccessPresynaptic protein synthesis required for NT-3-induced long-term synaptic modulation
Neurotrophins elicit both acute and long-term modulation of synaptic transmission and plasticity. Previously, we demonstrated that the long-term synaptic modulation requires the endocytosis of neurotrophin-rec...

Acute and gradual increases in BDNF concentration elicit distinct signaling and functions in neurons
The authors report that a dose of BDNF elicits very different signaling, morphological and synaptic responses in hippocampal neurons or slices, depending on whether it is applied all at once or gradually.

Open AccessMultiple functions of precursor BDNF to CNS neurons: negative regulation of neurite growth, spine formation and cell survival
Proneurotrophins and mature neurotrophins elicit opposite effects via the p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR) and Trk tyrosine kinase receptors, respectively; however the molecular roles of proneurotrophins in the...
