Early D-Aspartate Deficiency Alters Hippocampal Synaptic Plasticity in Juvenile Mice
No Comments on Early D-Aspartate Deficiency Alters Hippocampal Synaptic Plasticity in Juvenile Mice
A recent study shows that embryonic depletion of D-Aspartate in mice leads to enhanced NMDA receptor-dependent synaptic plasticity in the juvenile hippocampus, highlighting its role in brain development.
Study Links Sensory Differences in Autism to Brain White Matter Changes Near Amygdala and Hippocampus
A recent study found that adults with autism show differences in brain white matter connected to the amygdala and hippocampus, which may relate to atypical sensory traits such as sensation seeking.
Astrocytes in the Hippocampus Influence Inhibitory Circuit Development and Behavior in Fragile X Syndrome Mouse Model
Research in a Fragile X Syndrome mouse model reveals that astrocytes in the hippocampus influence inhibitory synapse development and behaviors related to socialization and spatial memory, highlighting new avenues for understanding and potentially…
