The activity of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), adenylate cyclase (AC), 5'-nucleotidase (NT), Na+, K(+)-ATPase, as well as the contents of phospholipids (PL) and gangliosides (G) per mg of protein in homogenate, crude membrane (P2) fraction, and synaptosomes from the sensorimotor cortex of the right and left hemispheres of rat brain were analyzed under normal and hypoxic conditions. The authors found that under normal physiological conditions there are no significant differences of the studied parameters in homogenates of sensorimotor cortex from the right and left hemispheres. In P2 fractions, and especially in preparations of synaptosomes from the right and left cortex, differences in the activity of 5'-NT and AC were found. Hypoxia (pO2 = 7.8%) was shown to alter studied parameters (AChE, AC, Na+, K(+)-ATPase activity, and PL content) mainly in the right hemisphere.

Executive function, limbic circuit dynamics and repetitive and restricted behaviors in children with autism spectrum disorder.

Front Neurosci

Objective: Repetitive and restricted behaviors (RRBs) are a core symptom of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), but effective treatment approaches are still lacking. Executive function (EF) has been identified as a promising target, as research increasingly shows a link between EF deficits and the occurrence of RRBs. However, the neural mechanisms that connect the two remain unclear.

Background: Previous studies have used machine learning to identify clinically relevant atrophic regions in progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). This study applied Elastic Net (EN) in PSP to uncover key atrophic patterns, offering a novel approach to understanding its pathology.

Methods: This study included baseline data from 74 patients with PSP enrolled in the Study of Comprehensive ANd multimodal marker-based cohort of PSP (SCAN-PSP, NCT05579301) in Seoul between January 2022 and August 2023.

Exploring imitation of within hand prehensile object manipulation using fMRI and graph theory analysis.

Sci Rep

Support Centre for Advanced Neuroimaging (SCAN), Institute for Diagnostic and Interventional Neuroradiology, Inselspital, Bern University Hospital, University of Bern, Bern, Switzerland.

This study aims to establish an imitation task of multi-finger haptics in the context of regular grasping and regrasping processes during activities of daily living. A video guided the 26 healthy, right-handed volunteers through the three phases of the task: (1) fixation of a hand holding a cuboid, (2) observation of the sensori-motor manipulation, (3) imitation of that motor action. fMRI recorded the task; graph analysis of the acquisitions revealed the associated functional cerebral connectivity patterns.

Objective: This study assessed the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on cue reactivity and craving for game-related cues using event-related potentials (ERPs) in internet gaming disorder (IGD) patients.

Methods: At baseline, a series of game-related and neutral pictures were shown to both IGD and healthy controls (HCs) while ERPs were recorded. Late positive potentials (LPP) were used to investigate cue reactivity.

Objective: The vicious circle model of obesity proposes that the hippocampus plays a crucial role in food reward processing and obesity. However, few studies focused on whether and how pediatric obesity influences the potential direction of information exchange between the hippocampus and key regions, as well as whether these alterations in neural interaction could predict future BMI and eating behaviors.

Methods: In this longitudinal study, a total of 39 children with excess weight (overweight/obesity) and 51 children with normal weight, aged 8 to 12, underwent resting-state fMRI.
