Thyroid Disorders and Development of Cognitive Impairment: A Review Study.

Dementia is a neurological disorder that is spreading with increasing human lifespan. In this neurological disorder, memory and cognition are declined and eventually impaired. Various factors can be considered as the background of this disorder, one of which is endocrine disorders.

The Positive Effect of MiR1 Antagomir on Ischemic Neurological Disorders Via Changing the Expression of Bcl-w and Bad Genes.

Introduction: MicroRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) are non-coding RNAs. Studies have shown that miRNAs are expressed aberrantly in stroke. The miR1 enhances ischemic damage, and a previous study has demonstrated that reduction of miR1 level has a neuroprotective effect on the Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion (MCAO).

Effect of intravenous injection of antagomiR-1 on brain ischemia.

Stroke is one of the leading causes of death in the world, but the underlying molecular mechanism of this disease remains elusive, thus it will be great challenges to finding appropriate protection. MicroRNAs are short, single-stranded, non-coding RNAs and recent studies have shown that they are aberrantly expressed in ischemic condition. Due to the fact that miR-1 has harmful effects on neural damages during brain ischemia, limited miR-1 has been proven to be protective in middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO).

The Role of Estrogen Receptors on Spatial Learning and Memory in CA1 Region of Adult Male Rat Hippocampus.

The hippocampal system plays an important role in memory function. Neurohormones like androgens and estrogens that syntheses in hippocampus have an important role in learning and memory. Many biological effects of estrogens in the brain via estrogenic receptors (ERs) are investigated.
