BACKGROUND: Cell adhesion molecule function is involved in hippocampal synaptic plasticity and associated with memory consolidation. At the infragranular zone of the dentate gyrus, neurons expressing the polysialylated form of the neural cell adhesion mole ...
The effects of 21-day exposure to restraint stress on mRNA levels of the cell adhesion molecules NCAM and L1 were evaluated in different hippocampal regions (CA1, CA3, and dentate gyrus) and other structures (thalamus, prefrontal and frontal cortices, and ...
Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) involved in synaptic changes underlying learning and memory processes, are implicated in the effect of stress on behavioural performance. The present study was designed to test the hypothesis that (i) expression of CAMs is ap ...
The epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) is composed of three homologous subunits: alpha, beta, and gamma. Mutations in the Scnn1b and Scnn1g genes, which encode the beta and the gamma subunits of ENaC, cause a severe form of hypertension (Liddle syndrome). Th ...
Existing evidence indicates that 21-days exposure of rats to restraint stress induces dendritic atrophy in pyramidal cells of the hippocampus. This phenomenon has been related to altered performance in hippocampal-dependent learning tasks. Prior studies ha ...
Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) of the immunoglobulin superfamily, NCAM and L1, as well as the post-translational addition of alpha-2, 8-linked polysialic acid (PSA) homopolymers to NCAM (PSA-NCAM), have been implicated in the neural mechanisms underlying m ...
Chronic stress has been shown to induce time-dependent neurodegeneration in the hippocampus, ranging from a reversible damage to a permanent neuronal loss. This damage has been proposed to impair cognitive function in hippocampus-dependent learning tasks. ...
