UNLABELLED Stress and the major stress hormone corticosterone induce profound influences in the brain. Altered histone modification and transcriptional dysfunction have been implicated in stress-related mental disorders. We previously found that repeated stress caused an impairment of prefrontal cortex (PFC)-mediated cognitive functions by increasing the ubiquitination and degradation of AMPA-t...

Small heat shock proteins are protective produced by organisms under thermal stress. They widely present in living organisms. Here, Hsp18, Hsp18.55 and Hsp19.5 genes were cloned from Lactobacillus plantarum heterologous expressed Lactococcus lactis , their potential functions ethanol stress investigated. The results showed that the recombinant strain over expressing gene had stronger resistance...

In this paper, we study the inverse problem for Dirac differential operators with  discontinuity conditions in a compact interval. It is shown that the potential functions can be uniquely determined by the value of the potential on some interval and parts of two sets of eigenvalues. Also, it is shown that the potential function can be uniquely determined by a part of a set of values of eigenfun...

The paper reviews the method of complex potential functions developed by Green and Collins as applied to axisymmetric mixed boundary value problems in elasticity for the half-space. It is shown how the method can be applied to problems in several coupled potential functions such as adhesive and frictional contact problems, to problems involving annular regions and to problems in thermoelasticit...

Although ribosomal proteins are known for playing an essential role in ribosome assembly and protein translation, their ribosome-independent functions have also been greatly appreciated. Over the past decade, more than a dozen of ribosomal proteins have been found to activate the tumor suppressor p53 pathway in response to ribosomal stress. In addition, these ribosomal proteins are involved in ...

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...

Oxidative stress is one of the major causes most age-dependent neurodegenerative disorders. Neurons accumulate oxidative damage over time due to post-mitotic cells. Thus, modulation essential overcome these Molecular hydrogen (H2) has great potential for treating various diseases and improving quality life by exerting multiple functions including anti-oxidation, anti-inflammation, energy metabo...
