Place cells show location-specific firing patterns according to an animal's position in an
environment and are thought to contribute to the spatial representation required for self …

Re-examining the relationship between neuropeptide systems and neural circuits will help
us to understand more intensively the critical role of neuropeptides in brain function as the …

Science is growing at a pace that exceeds our comprehension. This is no less true of

Chronic uncontrollable stress has been shown to produce various physiological alterations
and impair mnemonic functions in the rodent hippocampus. Impacts on neuronal activities …

Maternal dietary Zn deficiency during fetal development induces substantial cognitive
dysfunctions in the resultant offspring. The mechanism underlying this effect is unclear. The …

Hippocampal pyramidal neurons play an essential role in processing spatial information as
implicated with its place-dependent firing. Although, previous slice physiology studies have …

A spontaneous mutation of the disrupted in schizophrenia 1 (Disc1) gene is carried by the
129S inbred mouse strain. Truncated DISC1 protein in 129S mouse synapses impairs the …

Methods: 30 male adult BALB/c mice were used for the study. The mice were randomly
divided into three groups of ten mice each with an intraperitoneal injection of 0.1 mL of 10 …
