Newest firstIntroduction The bed nucleus of stria terminalis (BNST) acts as a crucial hub for assessing vigilant threats, with the oval subnucleus (ovBNST) being enriched in endocannabinoid ligands and receptors. The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is well recognized for its role in stress responses. However, the molecular and circuitry mechanisms through which the ovBNST ECS mediates chronic stress induced depressive phenotypes…
Open article record in new tab ↗The mechanism of and effective treatment for the headache, with the global prevalence of 52%, and its common anxiety comorbidity remain elusive. Here, we found that chronic isosorbide dinitrate (ISDN) injections induce c-fos expression in the anterior insula (AI), prelimbic cortex (PrL), and oval nucleus of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (ovBNST), suggesting their contributions to headache and anxiety com…
Open article record in new tab ↗Cannabinoids and the endocannabinoid system (ECS) have been intensively studied for their neuroregulatory roles in the central nervous system (CNS), especially in regulating learning and memory. However, many experimental and clinical studies obtained conflicting results indicating a complex network of interaction underlying the regulation of learning and memory by different cannabinoids and the ECS. The ECS influ…
Open article record in new tab ↗It remains unclear how infantile febrile seizures (FS) enhance adult seizure susceptibility. Here we showed that the transient increase of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) after prolonged FS promoted adult seizure susceptibility, which was blocked by interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) within a critical time window. Postnatal administered IL-1β alone mimicked the effect of FS on adult seizure susceptibility. IL-1R1 k…
Open article record in new tab ↗Drug addiction is an association of compulsive drug use with long-term associative learning/memory. Multiple forms of learning/memory are primarily subserved by activity- or experience-dependent synaptic long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD). Recent studies suggest LTP expression in locally activated glutamate synapses onto dopamine neurons (local Glu-DA synapses) of the midbrain ventral tegm…
