The endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) regulates neurotransmission and
neuroinflammation by activating CB 1 cannabinoid receptors on neurons and CB 2 cannabinoid …

Chronic exposure to drugs of abuse induces countless modifications in brain physiology.
However, the neurobiological adaptations specifically associated with the transition to …

The corollaries of the obesity epidemic that plagues developed societies are malnutrition and
resulting biochemical imbalances. Low levels of essential n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n…

Background Cannabinoids have deleterious effects on prefrontal cortex (PFC)-mediated
functions and multiple evidences link the endogenous cannabinoid (endocannabinoid) system, …

Viral infection during pregnancy is correlated with increased frequency of neurodevelopmental
disorders, and this is studied in mice prenatally subjected to maternal immune activation (…

Lexical and semantic information are difficult to collect either automatically or manually, and
as being instrumental in many (if not all) NLP applications, there is a serious bottleneck for …

The biophysical features of neurons shape information processing in the brain. Cortical
neurons are larger in humans than in other species, but it is unclear how their size affects …

The cellular traffic of neurotransmitter receptors has captured a lot of attention over the last
decade, mostly because synaptic receptor number is adjusted during synaptic development …

The reason why neurons synthesize more than one endocannabinoid (eCB) and how this is
involved in the regulation of synaptic plasticity in a single neuron is not known. We found …

Applying Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) leads to the creation of a large number of
metamodels, since MDE recommends an intensive use of models defined by metamodels. …
