Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is an early onset neurodevelopmental disorder, which is characterized by disturbances of brain function and behavioral deficits in core areas of impaired reciprocal socialization, impairment in communication skills, and repetitive or restrictive interests and behaviors...

Bipolar Disorder (BD) is a complex neuropsychiatric disorder that is characterized by intermittent episodes of mania and depression and, without treatment, 15% of patients commit suicide1. Hence, among all diseases, BD has been ranked by the WHO as a top disorder of morbidity and lost productivity2....

Microarray analysis on total retinal RNA from 15 day old Sirt6 wild-type (WT) and knock-out (KO) mice. The retina is one of the major energy consuming tissues within the body. In this context, synaptic transmission between light-excited rod photoreceptors and downstream ON-bipolar neurons is a highl...

Two key paradigms for examining activity-dependent development of primary visual cortex (V1) involve either reduction of activity in both eyes via dark-rearing (DR) or imbalance of activity between the two eyes via monocular deprivation (MD).,Combining DNA microarray analysis with computational appr...

Excitatory synapses occur mainly on dendritic spines, and spine density is usually correlated with the strength of excitatory synaptic transmission. We report that Nr4a1, an activity-inducible gene encoding a nuclear receptor, regulates the density and distribution of dendritic spines in CA1 pyramid...

The aim of the study was to investigate the involvement of the mTOR pathway in the autism spectrum disorder. Adolescent male rats, prenatally exposed to valproic acid (500 mg/kg ip on gestational day 12.5), were treated with the mTOR inhibitor rapamycin (10 mg/kg, ip, two consecutive days starting a...

These experiments are designed to discover genes that are expressed selectively by synaptic nuclei in skeletal muscle with the particular goal of identifying genes that regulate motor axon growth and differentiation. We plan to isolate RNA from the dissected synaptic region of skeletal muscle and fr...

Differentiated cells acquire unique structural and functional traits through coordinated expression of lineage-specific genes. An extensive battery of genes encoding components of the synaptic transmission machinery and specialized cytoskeletal proteins is activated during neurogenesis, but the unde...
