Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Su-ying Cui"
- Su-Ying Cui's recent research focuses on the neurobiological mechanisms underlying depression and cognitive impairments, particularly in the context of sporadic Alzheimer's disease, utilizing rodent models to explore various therapeutic interventions and their effects.
- Key findings include the potential antidepressant-like effects of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase inhibition and the beneficial properties of Ganoderma lucidum spore extracts in ameliorating depression-like behaviors and improving sleep disturbances associated with sporadic Alzheimer's disease.
- Additionally, Cui's research highlights the role of neuropeptides such as melanin-concentrating hormone and neurotransmitter systems in stress-induced behavioral changes, contributing to a deeper understanding of the connections between stress, depression, and neurodegenerative conditions.
