Journal ArticleDOI

Cellular signalling properties in microcircuits

TL;DR: A review of signalling properties at the cellular and molecular levels in microcircuits in specific brain regions finds that postsynaptic signalling properties in these systems are remarkably diverse.
Book ChapterDOI

Single-Cell RT–PCR, a Technique to Decipher the Electrical, Anatomical, and Genetic Determinants of Neuronal Diversity

TL;DR: The GEM profiling approach is described with special attention to the gene expression profiling, which provides a powerful technique to investigate and correlate the neuron's gene expression with its phenotype (electrical behavior and morphology).
Journal ArticleDOI

Down-Regulation of Hippocampal Genes Regulating Dopaminergic, GABAergic, and Glutamatergic Function Following Combined Neonatal Phencyclidine and Post-Weaning Social Isolation of Rats as a Neurodevelopmental Model for Schizophrenia.

TL;DR: Findings indicate that alterations in dopamine neurotransmission, glutamate metabolism, and GABA signaling may contribute to some of the behavioral deficits observed following PCP-SI, and that lamotrigine may have some utility as an adjunctive therapy to improve certain cognitive deficits symptoms in schizophrenia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of prenatal exposure to nicotine on kidney glomerular mass and AT1R expression in genetically diverse strains of rats.

TL;DR: The results suggest that, in genetically vulnerable individuals, PEN leads to morphological and molecular changes in the kidneys that may contribute to fetal programming of hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nir2, a Novel Regulator of Cell Morphogenesis

TL;DR: Nir2, a novel protein related to Drosophila retinal degeneration B, markedly affects cell morphology through a novel Rho-inhibitory domain (Rid) which resides in its N-terminal region and implicate Nir2 as a novel regulator of the small GTPase Rho in actin cytoskeleton reorganization and cell morphogenesis.
