Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBridging from Cells to Cognition in Autism Pathophysiology: Biological Pathways to Defective Brain Function and PlasticityMatthew P. Anderson, Brian S. Hooker, Martha R. HerbertWe review evidence to support a model where the disease process underlying autism may begin when an in utero or early postnatal environmental, infectious, seizure, or autoimmune insult triggers an immune response that increases reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in the brain that leads to DNA damage (nuclear and mitochondrial) and metabolic enzyme blockade and that these inflammatory and oxidative … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 17,455 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCocaine Exposure Results in Formation of Dendritic Varicosity in Rat Primary Hippocampal NeuronsHonghong Yao, Crystal Bethel-Brown, Anil Kumar, Shilpa BuchProblem statement: It has been well documented that drugs of abuse such as cocaine can cause enhanced progression of HIV-Associated Neuropathological Disorders (HAND), the underlying mechanisms mediating these effects remain poorly understood. Approach: In present study, we explored the impact of cocaine exposure (I and 10 μM) on the dendritic beading in rat primary hippocampal neurons. Using the approach of … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,889 accessesView PDF Cite
