Background: Marlin-1 is a microtubule binding protein that associates specifically with the GABAB1 subunit in neurons and with members of the Janus kinase family in lymphoid cells. In addition, it binds the molecular motor ...

Shilajit is a natural substance found mainly in the Himalayas, formed for centuries by the gradual decomposition of certain plants by the action of microorganisms. It is a potent and very safe dietary supplement, restoring ...

The influence of early protein–calorie malnutrition on synaptic transmission in the rat prefrontal cortex was studied by evoking direct cortical responses with different trains of threshold electrical pulses. Malnutrition ...

Background: Iron is necessary for neuronal function but in excess generates neurodegeneration. Although most of the components of the iron homeostasis machinery have been described in neurons, little is known about the ...

One of the major problems in the translation of successful preclinical results to clinical studies and new therapies in Parkinson's disease is the use of preclinical models based on exogenous neurotoxins that do not replicate ...

The possible existence of endogenous substances other than γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), that can also bind to rat brain GABA receptors, has been investigated in synaptic membranes derived from whole rat brain, or from ...

The effects of some cholinergic agents and 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) on neurally mediated contractions of in vitro cat ciliary muscle preparations were studied. The contractile response to trains of stimuli was enhanced by ...
