Alcohol use disorder (AUD) patients comorbid with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection (HCV + AUD) could have progressively severe clinical sequels of liver injury and inflammation. Serum zinc and several polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) get dysregulated in AUD as well as HCV. However, the extent of dysregulation of PUFAs and zinc deficiency and their interaction in HCV + AUD as a comorbid pathology has not been studied. We examined the role of dysregulation of FAs and low zinc in HCV + AUD patients....

The frequency-following response (FFR) is an EEG-based potential used to characterize the brainstem encoding of complex sounds. Adopting techniques from auditory signal processing, we assessed the degree to which FFRs encode important properties of cochlear processing (e.g. nonlinearities) and their relation to speech-in-noise (SIN) listening skills. Based on the premise that normal cochlear transduction is characterized by rectification and compression, we reasoned these nonlinearities would create...
We previously reported that intraspinal transplantation of human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCs) promotes functional recovery in a rat model of acute traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI). However, whether intravenous transplantation of hAMSCs also has therapeutic benefit remains uncertain. In this study, we assessed whether intravenous transplantation of hAMSCs improves outcomes in rats with acute traumatic SCI. In addition, the potential mechanisms underlying the possible benefits of this...
Correcting for eddy currents, movement-induced distortion and gradient inhomogeneities is imperative when processing diffusion MRI (dMRI) data, but is highly computing resource-intensive. Recently, Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) was implemented for the widely-used eddy-correction software, ‘eddy’, which reduces processing time and allows more comprehensive correction. We investigated processing speed, performance and compatibility of CUDA-enabled eddy-current correction processing compared...
The repeated administration of high doses of amphetamine has been shown to cause long-lasting depletions of striatal dopamine which, when substantial enough, have been shown to result in cognitive and motor impairment. These amphetamine-induced lesions are slightly larger in males than that in females and can be partially ameliorated by pretreatment with antioxidants. The objective of the present study was to replicate these two latter observations using an amphetamine dosing regimen that yields...
Chronic pain results in a variety of neural adaptations, many of which are maladaptive and result in hypersensitivity to pain. In humans, this hypersensitivity can be debilitating and treatment options are limited. Fortunately, there are numerous animal models that mimic clinical populations and have the potential to aid in the evaluation of underlying mechanisms and ultimately the development of better treatments. One of these is the complete Freund’s adjuvant (CFA)-model of chronic inflammatory...
The mammalian neocortex is composed of six major layers of neurons. Each group of neurons in the cortical layers has distinct characteristics based on the expression of specific genes and connectivity patterns of neural circuits. Neuronal subtype transition and regional identity acquisition are established by temporal cues and interaction between several transcription factors during neurogenesis. The impairment of cortical lamination or neural circuits results in a wide range of neurodevelopmental...
Besides degradation, lysosomes can also carry molecules for secretion out of the cell, such as ATP and cytokines, during unconventional secretion. Phosphatidylinositols and their metabolizing enzymes play important roles in the sorting and trafficking of lysosomal materials through the trans-Golgi network. The present study reveals a new function of phosphatidylinositol kinase-III alpha in the ‘kiss-and-run’ fusion of lysosomes at the plasma membrane to release ATP from microglia.
Waggle needling, a classical anti-spastic needling technique characterized by combination of acupuncture with joint movement, has gained increasing popularity of spasticity treatment in China. This study was designed to compare the anti-spastic effect of waggle needling to the routine needling and to explore its underlying mechanism. We established post-stroke spasticity model based on ischemia stroke operation (middle cerebral artery occlusion). Rats were divided into six groups: normal control...
The brain’s default mode network (DMN) has become closely associated with self-referential mental activity, particularly in the resting-state. Prior reports point that the sex hormones are potent modulators of brain plasticity and functional connectivity. However, it is uncertain whether changes in ovarian hormones, as occur during the monthly menstrual cycle, substantially affects the functional connectivity of DMN. Here, we employed a Self-Awareness Scale (SAS) and the resting-state functional...
Histone deacetylase-6 modulates amyloid beta-induced cognitive dysfunction rats by regulating PTK2B.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of histone deacetylase-6 (HDAC6) on the functional and pathological changes of the amyloid beta (Aβ)-induced cognitive dysfunction rats by regulating protein tyrosine kinase 2 beta (PTK2B). Ninety Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into nine groups, consisting of five experimental groups and four control groups. In five experimental groups, Aβ1–42 was infused intracerebroventricularly and 3 days later, rats in each group were infused intracerebroventricularly...
Facial trustworthiness can influence trust behavior. The outcome may be concordant (a person with a trustworthy face who engages in reciprocal behavior) or conflicting (a person with a trustworthy face who does not reciprocate). This study investigated the temporal features of processing different outcomes following trustworthy or untrustworthy faces. Thirty-one college students participated in a decision-making task in which they were shown a face and were asked to judge whether the person would...
Neural transplantation is a promising modality for treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, traumatic brain injury and stroke. Biocompatible scaffolds with optimized properties improve the survival of transplanted neural cells and differentiation of progenitor cells into the desired types of neurons. Silk fibroin is a biocompatible material for tissue engineering. Here, we describe thin-film scaffolds based on photocrosslinked methacrylated silk fibroin (FBMA). These scaffolds exhibit an increased...
To investigate the preattentive change detection in preschool children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), we compared the mismatch negativity (MMN) and P3a of event-related potentials (ERPs) between preschool ADHD and normal children using three-stimulus oddball paradigm. Analyzing MMN and P3a components, we found that MMN elicited by deviants and P3a elicited by novelty were significantly reduced in patients than in controls. In addition, the P3a amplitude was positive correlated...

Abstract The immune system of cancer patient gets compromised because of cancer therapy, surgery and malignancy and thus the probability of infection are increased than the general patients. Immunosuppression can expose cancer patients to serious complications which can lead to delay in diagnosis and unnecessary hospitalizations that may adversely affect the prognosis of the disease. Patients who received chemotherapy or surgery within the 30 days before COVID‐19 pandemic have more risk of infection...
