Brain plasticity-based therapeutics
The primary objective of this review article is to summarize how the neuroscience of brain plasticity, exploiting new findings in fundamental, integrative and cognitive neuroscience, is changing the therapeutic landscape for professional communities addressing brain-based disorders and disease. After considering the neurological bases of training-driven neuroplasticity, we shall describe how th...
متن کاملBrain Plasticity and Learning Based Therapy
We examined the role of ERK pathway in the segregation of retinal ganglion cell (RGC) afferents in the dorsal-lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN). Our results demonstrate that the blockade of P-ERK abolishes the eye-specific segregation in the dLGN providing evidence that ERK is crucial for the development of retino-geniculate connections. In particular we show that ERK mediates this process both...
متن کاملTargeting Pancreatic Cancer Cell Plasticity: The Latest in Therapeutics
Mortality remains alarmingly high for patients diagnosed with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), with 93% succumbing to the disease within five years. The vast majority of PDAC cases are driven by activating mutations in the proto-oncogene KRAS, which results in constitutive proliferation and survival signaling. As efforts to target RAS and its downstream effectors continue, parallel rese...
متن کاملNIBS-driven brain plasticity.
Through plasticity the brain is able to change its function and to rearrange following injury or environmental changes. In recent years, it was shown that non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) techniques, especially transcra- nial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) can contribute to understand how these plastic changes occur. Additionally, the literatu...
متن کاملAugmentation-related brain plasticity
Today, the anthropomorphism of the tools and the development of neural interfaces require reconsidering the concept of human-tools interaction in the framework of human augmentation. This review analyses the plastic process that the brain undergoes when it comes into contact with augmenting artificial sensors and effectors and, on the other hand, the changes that the use of external augmenting ...
