Exposure to far ‐infrared ray attenuates methamphetamine‐induced impairment in recognition memory through inhibition of protein kinase C δ in male mice: Comparison with the antipsychotic clozapine
Abstract
We have previously demonstrated that repeated treatment with methamphetamine (MA) results in a recognition memory impairment via upregulation of protein kinase C (PKC) δ and downregulation of the glutathione peroxidase‐1 (GPx‐1)‐dependent antioxidant system. We also demonstrated that far‐infrared ray (FIR) attenuates acute restraint stress via induction of the GPx‐1 gene. Herein, we investigated whether exposure to FIR modulates MA‐induced recognition memory impairment in male mice, and whether cognitive potentials mediated by FIR require modulation of the PKCδ gene, extracellular signal‐regulated ...

Animal models of multiple sclerosis: Focus on experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis
Abstract
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, progressive disorder of the central nervous system (CNS) that affects more than two million people worldwide. Several animal models resemble MS pathology; the most employed are experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) and toxin‐ and/or virus‐induced demyelination. In this review we will summarize our knowledge on the utility of different animal models in MS research. Although animal models cannot replicate the complexity and heterogeneity of the MS pathology, they have proved to be useful for the development of several drugs approved for treatment of MS patients. Th...

Endogenous purines modulate K+ ‐evoked ACh secretion at the mouse neuromuscular junction
In conclusion, when motor nerve terminals are depolarized by increasing K+ concentrations, the ATP/ADP and adenosine endogenously generated are able to modulate ACh secretion by sequential activation of different purinergic receptors.
At the mammalian neuromuscular junction, ATP is co‐released with the neurotransmitter ACh, and once in the synaptic cleft, it is hydrolyzed to adenosine. We report that, when motor nerve terminals are depolarized by increasing [K+]o, there is a sequence of activation of presynaptic purinergic receptors that are able to modulate neurosecretion.

Cross multivariate correlation coefficients as screening tool for analysis of concurrent EEG ‐fMRI recordings
Abstract
Over the past decade, the simultaneous recording of electroencephalogram (EEG) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data has garnered growing interest because it may provide an avenue towards combining the strengths of both imaging modalities. Given their pronounced differences in temporal and spatial statistics, the combination of EEG and fMRI data is however methodologically challenging. Here, we propose a novel screening approach that relies on a Cross Multivariate Correlation Coefficient (xMCC) framework. This approach accomplishes three tasks: (1) It provides a measure for testing multivariate cor...
