Mechanisms of Brain Region-Specific Amyloid-beta Deposition
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia. A fundamental feature of AD is brain region-specific deposition of extracellular amyloid plaques principally comprised of the amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide. Using mouse models of cerebral Aβ deposition, we examined molecular, cellular and systems-level mechanisms that regulate brain region-specific Aβ accumulation and aggregation. Parallel...
متن کاملMating-induced c-fos expression patterns complement and supplement observations after lesions in the male Syrian hamster brain.
Experimental efforts to define the functional neuroanatomical circuitry underlying male sexual behavior in rodents have relied in the past on the observation of behavioral deficits in males with selectively placed brain lesions. More recently, experiments in our laboratory and several other laboratories have attempted to selectively stimulate or eliminate Fos protein production associated with ...
متن کاملMating-induced expression of c-fos in the male Syrian hamster brain: role of experience, pheromones, and ejaculations.
This study was designed to investigate the effects of pheromonal cues and specific behaviors within the male copulatory sequence on c-fos expression in the medial nucleus of the amygdala (Me), the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST), and the medial preoptic area (MPOA) of the Syrian hamster brain. Sexually experienced male hamsters were placed into clean testing arenas and were either: 1...
متن کاملO-1: Thraputic Effect of Silymarin, Celecoxib and Exogenous Testosterone on Varicocele-Induced Disorders; Possible Mechanisms
Background Varicocele (VCL) is characterized by a progressive disorder which is defined by tortuosity of the pampiniform plexus veins that exerts bilateral impacts. 50-60 percent of males with infertility problems are suffering from VCL. Considering VCL-induced massive problems in human fertilizing potential, investigating different aspects of VCL-induced derangements is gaining considerable at...
متن کاملPhotoperiod and testosterone regulate androgen receptor immunostaining in the Siberian hamster brain.
Day length regulates the effects of gonadal steroids on gonadotropin secretion and behavior in seasonal breeders. To determine whether this influence of photoperiod results from changes in androgen receptor expression in Siberian hamster brain regions that regulate neuroendocrine function, androgen receptor immunostaining was examined in castrated animals given either no androgen replacement or...
