Brain-derived neurotrophic factor as a regulator of systemic and brain energy metabolism and cardiovascular health
Overweight sedentary individuals are at increased risk for cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and some neurological disorders. Beneficial effects of dietary energy restriction (DER) and exercise on brain structural plasticity and behaviors have been demonstrated in animal models of aging and acute (stroke and trauma) and chronic (Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases) neurological disorders. The ...
متن کاملIGF-1 in the brain as a regulator of reproductive neuroendocrine function.
Given the close relationship among neuroendocrine systems, it is likely that there may be common signals that coordinate the acquisition of adult reproductive function with other homeostatic processes. In this review, we focus on central nervous system insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) as a signal controlling reproductive function, with possible links to somatic growth, particularly during p...
متن کاملICANN as Regulator
owe thanks, as always, to Jessica Litman; without her, this narrative would be even more turgid, and would have rather less to say. I was the co-chair of a working group established as part of the ICANN process to formulate recommendations regarding the deployment of new generic top-level domains. The view expressed in this article, however, are solely my own. 1 In the words of Harold Feld: " I...
متن کاملC1q as a Regulator of Brain Development: Implications for Autism Spectrum Disorders
Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) represents a heterogeneous group of neurodevelopmental disorders with similar core features of social and communication impairments, restricted interests and repetitive behaviors. Early synaptic dysfunction due to neuroinflammatory insults may underpin the pathogenesis of abnormal brain development in some of individuals with ASDs. As a critical component of the...
متن کاملIdentification of a calcium-binding protein as a calcium-dependent regulator of brain adenylate cyclase.
An activating factor of adenylate cyclase (EC 4.6.1.1) HAS BEEN OBTAINED FROM DETERGENT-DISPERSED PREPARATIONS OF PORCINE CEREBRAL CORTEX BY COLUMN CHROMATOGRAPHY ON ECTEOLA-cellulose. The factor was identified by acrylamide gel electrophoresis and by enzyme activation studies as the Ca2+-binding protein that regulates the activity of a brain cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase. This Ca2+-bindi...
