Background: The relationship between task-related hemodynamic activity and brain excitability is poorly understood in humans as it is technically challenging to combine simultaneously non-invasive brain stimulation and neuroimaging modalities. Cortical excitability corresponds to the readiness to ...

Objective: Beyond objective socioeconomic status (SES) indicators, subjective social status (SSS), an individual's subjective perception of their social standing relative to others, has been independently linked to cardiovascular disease (CVD) morbidity and mortality. Some studies also report sex differences in the association between SSS and CVD. Thi ...

Although rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is often thought of as a singular state, it consists of two substates, phasic and tonic REM, defined by the presence (respectively absence) of bursts of rapid eye movements. These two substates have distinct EEG signatures and functional properties. However ...

The main objective of this study was to develop a natural curcumin-loaded varnish that responds to blue light in an antimicrobial photodynamic therapy-based approach with photoelimination of targeted cells. Fluoride-free curcumin-loaded varnish (CUR-V) consisting of gum rosin (80 wt%) and ethanol (20 wt%) was loaded with 0, 0.25, and 10.0 wt% curcumin and ...

Background: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries can pose significant challenges for athletes, leading to significant morbidity, loss of playing time, and impaired performance. Neuromuscular training programs, such as the FIFA 11+, have shown promise in reducing the risk of lower extremity injuries in this high-risk population. Purpose/hypothesis: T ...

As a major component of intracellular trafficking, the coat protein complex II (COPII) is indispensable for cellular function during embryonic development and throughout life. The four SEC24 proteins (A-D) are essential COPII components involved in cargo selection and packaging. A human disorder ...

In Alzheimer's disease, there is an imbalance in neurotransmitter release and altered neuronal activation. Here, we present a protocol approach to analyze neuronal activity by combining local field potential (LFP) recording with microdialysis within the same animal. We describe steps for measuring glutamate and GABA levels following hippocampal amyloi ...
