background: gray`s reinforcement sensitivity theory (rst) presupposes individual differences in the sensitivity of basic brain systems that respond to punishing and reinforcing stimuli. these differences are thought to underlie the personality dimensions of anxiety and impulsivity, and to have relevance for psychopathology. the present study aims at studying the relationship between behavioural...

(1) Background: The findings of our recent in vivo study indicated that the oral administration oenothein B, a unique macrocyclic ellagitannin, activated extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 2 and cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) mouse brain. A large hydrophilic B is unable to reach brain, suggesting any metabolite(s) might function (2) Results: addition culture medium rat co...

glycation is a protein modification, which results in a change in a protein structure. glycation is believed to be the etiology of various age-related diseases such as diabetes mellitus and alz-heimer’s disease (ad). activation of microglia and resident macrophages in the brain by glycated proteins with subsequent oxidative stress and cytokine release may be an important factor in the progressi...

epilepsy is neurological disorders that afflict many people around the world with a higher prevalence rate in children and in low income countries. temporal lobe epilepsy (tle) is result from hippocampal sclerosis is a neurological disorder with difficult treatment. stem cells can transform into any type of cells such as glial cells, consequently stem cells can use for medical treatment. stem c...

Introduction: Maintaining means of communication is an extremely important issue in occupational therapy for patients with intractable neurological disease. A brain-computer interface (BCI) a device control technology utilizing physiological signals, and eagerly awaited application as aid severe motor dysfunction. As exploratory study the development BCI, we examined accuracy discriminating bra...

As a neurotransmitter or neuromodulator, brain histamine has a variety of physiological roles in brain functions such as hypothalamic- pituitary- adrenal (HPA) activity. Histamine induces the release of ACTH through the activation of hypothalamic neurons containing vasopressin and CRH. Histamine induces the activity of HPA axis directly or indirectly. Endogenous opioids modulate the (HPA) axis ...

Minocycline is a second-generation tetracycline that effectively crosses the blood-brain barrier. It has remarkable neuroprotective qualities in models of cerebral ischaemia, traumatic brain injury, Huntington’s and Parkinson’s diseases. However, there is no evidence about neuroprotective effects of minocycline on AD. Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized neurop...

Background: Diabetes mellitus is a common metabolic disorder worldwide. It imposes excessive psychological stress on patients which negatively affect the course of the disease. The brain-behavioral systems have a role in dealing with stressful events such as chronic disorders. Objective: Comparison the brain-behavioral systems and psychological distress in diabetic patients and non-diabetics. ...
