Journal ArticleDOI

Sex differences in stroke therapies.

TL;DR: Experimental evidence supports the inclusion of sex as a variable in the study of a number of novel stroke drugs and therapies, including preclinical studies of anti‐inflammatory drugs (minocycline), stimulators of cell survival (insulin‐like growth factor‐1), and inhibitors of cell death pathways (pharmacological inhibition of poly[ADP‐ribose] polymerase‐1, nitric oxide production, and caspase activation).
Journal ArticleDOI

Neurodevelopmental Role for VGLUT2 in Pyramidal Neuron Plasticity, Dendritic Refinement, and in Spatial Learning

TL;DR: The data indicate that VGLUT2 expression is pivotal to the proper development of mature pyramidal neuronal architecture and plasticity, and that such glutamatergic deficiency leads to cognitive malfunction as observed in several neurodevelopmental psychiatric disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

AMPA glutamate receptor subunits 1 and 2 regulate dendrite complexity and spine motility in neurons of the developing neocortex.

TL;DR: It is suggested that AMPA receptor expression is an important determinant of dendrite morphology and connectivity in neocortical neurons, and that contrary to other regions of the CNS, the effects of AMPA receptors on dendritic morphology are not subunit-specific.
Journal ArticleDOI

Epigenetic mediators and consequences of excessive alcohol consumption.

TL;DR: It is shown that epigenetic modifications change global gene expression in response to environmental factors and can be a positive or negative sign for cancer diagnosis.
