Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) plays a key role in synaptic plasticity, spatial learning,
and anxiety-like behavioral processes. While IGF-1 regulates neuronal firing and synaptic …

Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) signaling plays a key role in learning and memory processes.
While the effects of IGF-I on neurons have been studied extensively, the involvement of …

Astrocytes are recognized as more important cells than historically thought in synaptic function
through the reciprocal exchange of signaling with the neuronal synaptic elements. The …

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) plays a critical role in modulating plasticity in
sensory cortices. Indeed, a BDNF-dependent long-term potentiation (LTP) at distal basal …

Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) signaling plays a key role in learning and memory. IGF-I
increases the spiking and induces synaptic plasticity in the mice barrel cortex (Noriega-Prieto …

In the last decades, astrocytes have emerged as important regulatory cells actively involved
in brain function by exchanging signaling with neurons. The endocannabinoid (eCB) …

Neuroblastoma is a childhood cancer with high incidence and high mortality rate. Great
efforts are made to find new treatments and molecular markers for diagnosis and prognosis. …

Spinocerebellar ataxia type 1 (SCA1) is a neurodegenerative disease caused by an abnormal
expansion of glutamine (Q) encoding CAG repeats in the ATAXIN1 (ATXN1) gene and …

Dendritic calcium (Ca 2+ ) spikes play a key role in the genesis of long-term synaptic
plasticity. Although synaptic plasticity in the infralimbic cortex is critical for the extinction of fear-…

… Noriega-Prieto and Fernandez de Sevilla conceived the study. Noriega Prieto, Maglio
performed and analyzed electrophysiological, and calcium imaging experiments, analyzed the …
