Dissecting Gene Expression Networks in the Developing Hippocampus through the Lens of NEIL3 Depletion

Dissecting Gene Expression Networks in the Developing Hippocampus through the Lens of NEIL3 Depletion

Analyzing the Gene Expression Network in Developing Hippocampus from the Perspective of NEIL3 Deficiency Background The hippocampus, a crucial region of the brain, is well-regarded for its key roles in memory consolidation, information processing, and emotional regulation. In the field of neuroscience research, the gene regulatory mechanisms of the...

Chronic Evoked Seizures in Young Pre-symptomatic APP/PS1 Mice Induce Serotonin Changes and Accelerate Onset of Alzheimer’s Disease-Related Neuropathology

APP/PS1 Mouse Study Reveals Link Between Chronic Induced Epilepsy and Alzheimer’s Disease Background Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is the most common type of dementia globally, affecting over 55 million people. The typical pathological feature of AD is the deposition of amyloid-β (Aβ) in the brain. Although Aβ deposition and the mechanisms it triggers p...

The Regulatory Mechanism of Central Complement C3a Receptor on LPS-Induced Depressive-Like Behavior Introduction With the increasing number of depression patients globally, major depressive disorder (MDD) has become one of the leading causes of disability worldwide. The symptoms, treatment effects, and biological correlations of depression exhibit ...

Atypical Connectome Topography and Signal Flow in Temporal Lobe Epilepsy

Atypical Connectome Topography and Signal Flow in Temporal Lobe Epilepsy

Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders, with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) being the most prevalent form of drug-resistant epilepsy in adults. Numerous studies have indicated that TLE involves not only pathological changes in the medial temporal lobe but also affects widespread brain structures and functions. In this scientific re...
