Neurogenic meningeal inflammation is regarded as a key driver of migraine headache. Multiple evidence show importance of inflammatory processes in the dura mater for pain generation but contribution of the leptomeninges is less clear. We assessed effects of cortical spreading depolarization (CSD), the...

27/07/2024 Bidirectional regulation by “star forces”
The role of astrocytes in modulating synaptic plasticity is an important question that until recently was not addressed due to limitations of previously existing technology. In the present study, we took an advantage of optogenetics to specifically activate astrocytes in hippocampal slices in...

12/07/2024 Lipidome atlas of the adult human brain
Lipids are the most abundant but poorly explored components of the human brain. Here, we present a lipidome map of the human brain comprising 75 regions, including 52 neocortical ones. The lipidome composition varies greatly among the brain regions, affecting 93% of the 419 analyzed lipids. These...

Primary sensory areas in the vertebrate neocortex (visual, auditory, somatosensory) is a central region of corresponding sensory analyzer. It was considered for a long time that such regions provide exact coding if visual information and thus doesn't undergo plasticity. However, several types of...

Currently, practically nothing is known about the biological processes occurring in the brain in most mental pathologies. One such pathology is non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI). Researchers from the IHNA&NPh RAS and the Moscow Research and Clinical Center for Neuropsychiatry have outlined a new...
