This work describes the state of the art of electrochemical devices for the detection of an
important class of neurotransmitters: the catecholamines. This class of biogenic amines …

Since the first implant of a carbon microelectrode in a rat 35 years ago, there have been
substantial advances in the sensitivity, selectivity and temporal resolution of electrochemical …

Progress in unravelling the cellular and molecular basis of mammalian circadian regulation
over the past decade has provided us with new avenues through which we can explore …

Voltage‐gated calcium (CaV) channels and their regulation by proteins at the synaptic cleft
play a critical role in neurotransmission. These interactions fine‐tune the synaptic response …

Background Schizophrenia is likely to be a consequence of DNA alterations that, together
with environmental factors, will lead to protein expression differences and the ultimate …

Autophagy plays a key role in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia as manifested by a 40%
decrease in BECN1/Beclin 1 mRNA in postmortem hippocampal tissues relative to controls …

The development and function of the central nervous system rely on the microtubule (MT)
and actin cytoskeletons and their respective effectors. Although the structural role of the …

Objectives. Proteome analysis has emerged as a promising strategy to the identification of
potential biomarkers and to further confirm the importance of certain pathways in the …

Structural microtubule associated proteins (MAPs) stabilize microtubules, a property that
was thought to be essential for development, maintenance and function of neuronal circuits …

Morphine derived from Papaver somniferum is commonly used as an analgesic compound
for pain relief. It is now accepted that endogenous morphine, structurally identical to vegetal …
