Objectives: The G72 mouse model of schizophrenia represents a well-known model that was generated to meet the main translational criteria of isomorphism, homology and predictability of schizophrenia to a maximum extent. In order to get a more detailed view of the complex etiopathogenesis of schizophrenia, whole genome transcriptome studies turn out to be indispensable. Here we carried out microarray data collection based on RNA extracted from the retrosplenial cortex, hippocampus and thalamus of G72 transgenic and wild-type control mice.

To get an integrative view of the sophisticated etiopathogenesis of AD, whole genome transcriptome studies turned out to be indispensable. Here we carried out microarray data collection based on RNA extracted from the retrosplenial cortex and hippocampus of age-matched, eight months old male and female APP/PS1 AD mice and control animals to perform sex- and brain region specific analysis of transcriptome profiles.

In the septohippocampal system, high- and low-voltage-activated (HVA, LVA) Ca channels were shown to be involved in theta genesis, learning, and memory processes. In particular, HVA Ca2.

These findings were supported by preclinical studies, specifically stressing the proamyloidogenic and indirect anticholinergic effects of PPIs. However, further large-scale pharmacoepidemiological studies showed inconsistent results on the association between PPIs and dementia.

Sociocultural and regulatory aspects, as well as health policies, play a central role in addition to medical care and prescription practices. The users mainly display self-involved motivations related to cognitive enhancement, emotional stability, and adaptivity.
