The Role of Adrenergic Receptors on Neural Excitability and Synaptic Plasticity: A Narrative Review
Adrenergic receptors have an important role in neural excitability and synaptic plasticity. Despite a lot of studies on these receptors, their exact role in brain disorders accompanied with hyperexcitability has not been determined. There are also controversies on their role in synaptic plasticity. In this review article, the important studies done in this regard have been reviewed to achieve a...
متن کاملFunctional Role of Adult Hippocampal Neurogenesis as a Therapeutic Strategy for Mental Disorders
Adult neurogenesis, the process of generating new neurons from neural stem cells, plays significant roles in synaptic plasticity, memory, and mood regulation. In the mammalian brain, it continues to occur well into adulthood in discrete regions, namely, the hippocampus and olfactory bulb. During the past decade, significant progress has been made in understanding the mechanisms regulating adult...
متن کاملThe Maternal Brain: An Organ with Peripartal Plasticity
The time of pregnancy, birth, and lactation, is characterized by numerous specific alterations in several systems of the maternal body. Peripartum-associated changes in physiology and behavior, as well as their underlying molecular mechanisms, have been the focus of research since decades, but are still far from being entirely understood. Also, there is growing evidence that pregnancy and lacta...
متن کاملO18: Role of Adult Hippocampal Neurogenesis in Anxiety Disorders
Neurogenesis occurs throughout life in several regions of the brain. In this lecture, a new sight for the role of the dentate gyrus and adult hippocampal neurogenesis in anxiety disorders will be discussed. The region that has obtained the most attention for its involvement in the neurogenesis of affective and anxiety disorders are the hippocampal and dentate gyrus. Evidence strongly suggests t...
متن کاملHippocampal Neurogenesis, Cognitive Deficits and Affective Disorder in Huntington's Disease
Huntington's disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by a tandem repeat expansion encoding a polyglutamine tract in the huntingtin protein. HD involves progressive psychiatric, cognitive, and motor symptoms, the selective pathogenesis of which remains to be mechanistically elucidated. There are a range of different brain regions, including the cerebral cortex and striatum, known to ...
