Matrix metalloproteinase-9 contributes to kindled seizure development in pentylenetetrazole-treated mice by converting pro-BDNF to mature BDNF in the hippocampus

TL;DR: MMP-9 is involved in the progression of behavioral phenotypes in kindled mice because of conversion of pro-BDNF to mature BDNF in the hippocampus, which is accompanied by decreased hippocampal levels of mature brain-derived neurotrophic factor.

Extracellular proteolysis in structural and functional plasticity of mossy fiber synapses in hippocampus.

TL;DR: The role of extracellular proteolysis in various aspects of synaptic plasticity in hippocampal mossy fiber synapses is reviewed, and a growing body of evidence demonstrates that among perisynaptic proteases, tissue plasminogen activator (tPA)/plasmin system, β-site amyloid precursor protein-cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) and metalloproteinases play a crucial role in shaping plastic changes in this projection.

Fingolimod increases brain-derived neurotrophic factor levels and ameliorates amyloid β-induced memory impairment.

TL;DR: It is shown that oral administration of fingolimod ameliorated the impairment in object recognition memory and associative learning in mice injected with amyloid β and was associated with restoration of normal BDNF expression levels in the cerebral cortices and hippocampi, suggesting that neuroprotection was mediated by up-regulation of neuronal BDNF levels.

Chronic Hyponatremia Causes Neurologic and Psychologic Impairments

TL;DR: The results suggest chronic hyponatremia in humans may cause gait disturbance and cognitive impairment, but these abnormalities are reversible and careful correction of this condition may improve quality of life and reduce mortality.

Enhanced neuronal plasticity and elevated endogenous sAPPα levels in mice over-expressing MMP9

TL;DR: In this paper, the in vivo role of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) enzymatic activity in synaptic plasticity and cognitive processes was investigated in transgenic mice.
