Choroid Plexus Ablation Eases Hydrocephalus Brain Swelling in Mice
A viral gene therapy that ablates the cerebrospinal fluid-producing choroid plexus prevented hydrocephalus-related brain swelling in mice while moderately reducing ...
Caloric Restriction Beats Time-Restricted Feeding on Metabolism in Obese Rats, but TRF Shifts Behavior
In obese rats fed a high-sugar diet, caloric restriction produced stronger metabolic improvements than time-restricted feeding, which instead showed distinct ...
Emerging Neuroscientists Map Body, Brain and Behaviour Across the Lifespan
A new Frontiers Research Topic gathers studies led by early-career researchers in psychophysiology and cognitive neuroscience, spanning bodily self-representation, neural ...
REM Sleep Deprivation in Rats Tied to Manic- and OCD-Like Behaviors and Hippocampal Gene Changes
A rat study found that 14 days of REM sleep deprivation produced manic- and OCD-like behaviors in both sexes and ...
TBHQ Shows Protective Effects Against Cisplatin-Induced Neurotoxicity in Rats
A rat study found that the antioxidant compound TBHQ reduced cisplatin-induced cognitive deficits, oxidative stress and hippocampal inflammation.
Nandrolone Raises Calcineurin in Rat Hippocampus Alongside Memory Deficits
In male rats, chronic high-dose nandrolone decanoate impaired spatial and aversive memory while increasing calcineurin protein levels in both dorsal ...
Losing cGAS Drives Microglial Decline and Progressive Neurodegeneration in Mice
A new mouse study finds that losing cGAS disrupts microglial homeostasis and drives progressive neurodegeneration from early adulthood.
GPNMB–SMAD4 pathway links microglial inflammation to demyelination in diabetic cognitive dysfunction
A mouse and cell study finds that hyperglycemia lowers microglial GPNMB, disrupting its binding to SMAD4 and unleashing NF-κB-driven neuroinflammation ...
