Journal ArticleDOI

Membrane properties of rat embryonic multipotent neural stem cells.

TL;DR: The results show that fetal NSCs exhibit a unique signature that can be used to determine their location and assess their ability to respond to their environment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Leptin-mediated cell survival signaling in hippocampal neurons mediated by JAK STAT3 and mitochondrial stabilization.

TL;DR: It is shown that both embryonic and adult hippocampal neurons express leptin receptors coupled to activation of STAT3 and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-Akt signaling pathways, suggesting that leptin signaling serves a neurotrophic function in the developing and adult hippocampus
Journal ArticleDOI

Activity-Induced Notch Signaling in Neurons Requires Arc/Arg3.1 and Is Essential for Synaptic Plasticity in Hippocampal Networks

TL;DR: Notch1 and its ligand Jagged1 are present at the synapse, and that Notch signaling in neurons occurs in response to synaptic activity, and neuronal NotCh signaling is positively regulated by Arc/Arg3.1, an activity-induced gene required for synaptic plasticity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Circulating Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor and Indices of Metabolic and Cardiovascular Health: Data from the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging

TL;DR: Plasma BDNF significantly correlates with multiple risk factors for metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular dysfunction, whether BDNF contributes to the pathogenesis of these disorders or functions in adaptive responses to cellular stress (as occurs in the brain).
Journal ArticleDOI

Secreted form of β-amyloid precursor protein shifts the frequency dependency for induction of LTD, and enhances LTP in hippocampal slices.

TL;DR: It is reported that sAPP α shifts the frequency dependence for induction of long-term depression of synaptic transmission (LTD) in hippocampal slices from adult rats, and pretreatment of slices with 8-bromo-cyclic GMP mimicked the effect of sAPPα on LTD suggesting a role for cyclicGMP in modulation of LTD.
