Welcome to BMC Neuroscience published by BioMed Central
BMC Neuroscience is an open access journal publishing original peer-reviewed research articles in all aspects of the nervous system, including molecular, cellular, developmental and animal model studies, as well as cognitive and behavioral research, and computational modeling. BMC Neuroscience (ISSN 1471-2202) is indexed/tracked/covered by PubMed, MEDLINE, BIOSIS, CAS, Scopus, EMBASE, PsycINFO, Thomson Reuters (ISI) and Google Scholar.

BMC Neuroscience 2009, 10:68
A new transgenic mouse line recapitulates endogenous patterns of human brain-derived neurotrophic (hBDNF) gene expression and alternative 5' splicing, showing promoter-specific regulation by kainic acid, and demonstrating for the first time that neural activity regulates the hBDNF gene.

Serotonergic and corazonergic, but not dopaminergic, neurons modulate the light-induced changes in fruit fly larvae locomotion during the photophobic foraging stage and photoneutral wandering stage of development.

Physiological estrogens induce dopamine efflux in rat pheochromocytoma cells expressing estrogen receptors leading to regulation of dopamine transporters, which offers mechanistic insight into the gender bias of dopamine-dependent neurological diseases.
