The aim of this study was to explore the influence of different intensities of acute aerobic exercise on brain activation in male methamphetamine (MA)-dependent patients during exercise. Twenty MA-dependent patients were divided randomly into two groups participating in 35 min of either moderate- or high-intensity aerobic exercise. Functional near-infrared spectral imaging (fNIRS) was used to detect hemodynamic changes in prefrontal cortex during the main 25-min exercise stage. The results revealed that high-intensity acute aerobic exercise aroused more cerebral oxygenation changes in the prefrontal cortex and left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex during exercise as compared with moderate-intensity exercise. Furthermore, there was a stronger positive connection observed between orbital frontal cortex and left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex in the high-intensity group than in the moderate-intensity group. Together these results suggest that for submaximal exercise intensities, high-intensity exercise may bring more benefits to male MA-dependent patients than moderate-intensity.

Depression is a common and complex neuropsychiatric disorder affecting people of all ages worldwide, associated with high rates of relapse and disability. Neohesperidin (NEO) is a dietary flavonoid with applications in therapeutics; however, its effects on depressive-like behavior remain unknown. Here, we evaluated the effects of NEO on depressive-like behavior induced by chronic and unpredictable mild stress (CUMS).

Background: Heterogeneity in the progression of clinical dementia poses a significant challenge, impeding the effectiveness of current therapies for Alzheimer's disease (AD). To decipher the molecular mechanisms governing heterogeneity in AD progression that remains a critical knowledge gap precluding rational therapeutic design, we investigated the biochemical and biophysical properties of tau present in the inferior temporal gyrus (ITG) and prefrontal cortex (PFC) brain regions of AD patients who had varying disease progression rates. To explore gene expression changes in the ITG which are associated with tau pathology and cognitive decline, we used RNA sequencing for molecular characterization of patients displaying tau and clinical heterogeneity.

Background: Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is a neurodegenerative disorder involving pathological deposition of tau that includes glial inclusions and specific regional vulnerability patterns. Therapeutic developments are hampered by incomplete understanding of disease mechanisms. Few studies have examined its cell type-specific effects.

Background: As humans age, some experience cognitive impairment while others do not. When impairment occurs, it varies in severity across individuals. Translationally relevant models are critical for understanding the neurobiological drivers of this variability, which is essential to uncovering the mechanisms underlying the brain's susceptibility to aging.
