Serotonin 5-HT2A and 5-HT6 receptors in the prefrontal cortex of Alzheimer and normal aging patients Dietrich E Lorke, Gang Lu, Eric Cho, David T Yew BMC Neuroscience 2006, 7:36 (27 April 2006) Alzheimer's disease patients have the same pattern of 5-HT2A and 5-HT6 receptor expression in the prefrontal cortex as in normally ageing subjects, but the density of receptor-positive cells is reduced by over a third.

Hugo Peluffo, Laia Acarin, Anna Arís, Pau González, Antoni Villaverde, Bernardo Castellano, Berta González BMC Neuroscience 2006, 7:35 (25 April 2006) Transient expression of the antioxidant enzyme Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD), using a non-viral gene vector injected into postnatal rat brain, following excitotoxic brain injury improves functional outcome and reduces lesion volume.

The photocurrent response of human cones is fast and monophasic JH van Hateren, TD Lamb BMC Neuroscience 2006, 7:34 (20 April 2006) An accurate estimate of the cone photoresponse in the living human eye may be achieved using both predictions from a model of transduction or a paired-flash electroretinogram method; the photoresponse is fast and monophasic.

The role of the AFD neuron in Samuel H Chung, Damon A Clark, Christopher V Gabel, Eric Mazur, Aravinthan DT Samuel BMC Neuroscience 2006, 7:30 (6 April 2006) Ablating individual dendrites or cell bodies of C. elegans AFD neurons by using focused femtosecond laser pulses allows discrimination between alternative models of cryophilic and thermophilic navigation.

A ketogenic diet as a potential novel therapeutic intervention in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis Zhong Zhao, Dale J Lange, Andrei Voustianiouk, Donal MacGrogan, Lap Ho, Jason Suh, Nelson Humala, Meenakshisundaram Thiyagarajan, Jun Wang, Giulio M Pasinetti BMC Neuroscience 2006, 7:29 (3 April 2006) In SOD1-G93A mouse models of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, a ketogenic diet may prolong motor function through increased ATP production and protection of motor neurons from certain mitochondrial toxins.
