Investigating how gut microbiota affect neuroplasticity and neurodevelopment

In a recent study published in the journal Neuropharmacology, researchers in Pisa, Italy, explored how gut microbiota can influence neuroplasticity.

What role does dysbiosis play in Parkinson's disease?

The current study, published in the journal Revue Neurologique, is based on the hypothesis that dysbiosis, or unhealthy variations in the gut and oral microbiota, is a key component of PD pathogenesis.

Gut microbiomes and mental health: how do they interact?

A new study published in the journal Frontiers in Medicine reviewed recent literature on the link between gut microbiota, the brain, and neurological disorders.

Designer DNA drug could be used to delay paralysis in ALS

In virtually all persons with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and in up to half of all cases of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and frontotemporal dementia, a protein called TDP-43 is lost from its normal location in the nucleus of the cell.

Multivariate brain-wide associated studies can be replicable with substantially smaller sample sizes

Since the development of functional magnetic resonance imaging in the 1990s, the reliance on neuroimaging has skyrocketed as researchers investigate how fMRI data from the brain at rest, and anatomical brain structure itself, can be used to predict individual traits, such as depression, cognitive decline, and brain disorders.

MS relapse risk not likely to increase after fertility treatments, study finds

There's good news for those with multiple sclerosis (MS). A new study has found that female participants were no more likely to have a flare-up of the disease after receiving fertility treatments than they were before their treatments.

Study sheds new insight into the dynamics of neural stem cell niche

When it comes to cell types, stem cells have unlimited potential – literally. These self-renewing cells, which are capable of giving rise to any cell type in the body, reside in specialized microenvironments known as niches.

Study provides strong support for AAV.NT-3 gene therapy in the management of sarcopenia

A new research paper was published on the cover of Aging (listed by MEDLINE/PubMed as "Aging (Albany NY)" and "Aging-US" by Web of Science) Volume 15, Issue 5, entitled, "AAV1.NT-3 gene therapy prevents age-related sarcopenia."

Chemists reveal a whole new role for molecular mirroring

With the aid of some sea slugs, University of Nebraska–Lincoln chemists have discovered that one of the smallest conceivable tweaks to a biomolecule can elicit one of the grandest conceivable consequences: directing the activation of neurons.

An overview of COVID-19-associated neurological complications in children

Researchers review current literature to understand the association between COVID-19, neuroimaging, and neurological symptoms in children.

Study identifies link between oral and gut microbiomes and depression

Researchers investigate the role of the oral-gut-brain axis in anxiety and depression.

Long-acting GIPRA inhibits feeding and lowers body weight in mice with diet-induced obesity

The hormone glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) is considered obesogenic. In contrast, GIP receptor agonists (GIPRAs) have shown reduced feeding and body weight in an obese mouse model. Therefore, the precise effects exerted by GIP and GIPRAs remain elusive.
