Exposure to ionizing radiation during manned deep space missions to Mars could lead to functional impairments of the central nervous system, which may compromise the success of the mission and affect the quality of life for returning astronauts. Along with radiation-induced changes in cognitive abilities and emotional status, the effects of increased motor activity were observed. The mechanisms behind these phenomena still remain unresolved.

Social behavior is affected by social structure type, but how neural function changes with social type remains unclear. We investigated whether social group size affects social behaviors based on dopamine (DA) and serotonin (5-HT) systems. Four-week-old male mice were housed under different social group sizes: one, two, four, and eight mice per cage (1mpc, 2mpc, 4mpc, 8mpc, respectively).

: Despite the availability of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) that can manage seizures, they often come with cognitive side effects. Furthermore, the role of oxidative stress and neuroinflammatory responses in epilepsy and the limitations of current AEDs necessitate exploring alternative therapeutic options. Medicinal plants, e.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a complicated neurodegenerative disease that is the most prevalent severe movement disorder worldwide. The research includes studying the levels of hydrogen sulphide (H2S) and cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE) with some biochemical parameters in the serum of patients with PD in Mosul City (Iraq), which include Serotonin (SERT), dopamine (DA), sphingomyelin (SM), vitamin B12, Acetylcholine esterase (AChE), monoamine oxidase (MAO), creatine kinase (CK), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT). Samples reached (100), which included: (40) for the Parkinson's patients group, and (60) for the control group.

Depression is one of the most common non-motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD) and the hyperactivity of the lateral habenula (LHb) may contribute to depression. The present study was performed to investigate the effects and mechanisms of group I metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) in the LHb on PD-related depressive-like behaviors. Unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine lesions of the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) were used to establish the PD rat model.
