A study was carried out of the distribution and density of the neurons remaining in the gerbil cerebral cortex following two 10-min periods of ischemia at either 3-, 5- or 48-h intervals. As the interval between the periods of ischemia increased, the ischemic injury was reduced from severe to milder infarction, and further from more to less intense disseminated selective neuronal necrosis. This model is suitable for studying the mechanisms of transition from selective neuronal necrosis to infarction at the threshold level of infarction.

Feature selectivity of corticocortical feedback along the primate dorsal visual pathway.

Anatomical studies have revealed a prominent role for feedback projections in the primate visual cortex. Theoretical models suggest that these projections support important brain functions, like attention, prediction, and learning. However, these models make different predictions about the relationship between feedback connectivity and neuronal stimulus selectivity.

Ghrelin, the endogenous ligand of the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR), promotes food intake, other feeding behaviours and stimulates growth hormone (GH) release from the pituitary. Growth hormone secretagogues (GHS), such as GHRP-6 and MK-0677, are synthetic GHSR ligands that activate orexigenic Neuropeptide Y neurons that co-express Agouti-Related Peptide (AgRP) in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus when administered systemically. Systemic GHRP-6 also stimulates GH release in humans and rats.

In recent years, growing evidence suggests that lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a bacterial endotoxin found in the outer membrane of gram‑negative bacteria, can influence cognitive functions, particularly memory formation and retrieval. However, the underlying mechanisms through which LPS exerts its effects on memory remain incompletely understood. This review used various electronic databases, including PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science, to identify relevant studies published between 2000 and 2024.

Background: 6-hydroxybenzothiazole-2-carboxamide is a novel, potent, and specific monoamine oxidase B inhibitor that can be used to study the structure of molecules and come up with new ways to protect neurons.
Objective: The objective of this work was to create an effective model using derivatives of 6- hydroxybenzothiazole-2-carboxamide and establish a dependable predictive foundation for the development of neuroprotective monoamine oxidase B inhibitors for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.
Methods: The construction and optimization of all compounds were carried out sequentially using ChemDraw software and Sybyl-X software.
Synaptic Targets and Cellular Sources of CB1 Cannabinoid Receptor and Vesicular Glutamate Transporter-3 Expressing Nerve Terminals in Relation to GABAergic Neurons in the Human Cerebral Cortex.

Cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1) regulates synaptic transmission through presynaptic receptors in nerve terminals, and its physiological roles are of clinical relevance. The cellular sources and synaptic targets of CB1-expressing terminals in the human cerebral cortex are undefined. We demonstrate a variable laminar pattern of CB1-immunoreactive axons and electron microscopically show that CB1-positive GABAergic terminals make type-2 synapses innervating dendritic shafts (69%), dendritic spines (20%) and somata (11%) in neocortical layers 2-3.
