Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase type IV is a target gene of the Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway.

29 Nov 2009 Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IV (CaMKIV) plays a key role in the regulation of calcium-dependent gene expression. The expression of CaMKIV and the activation of CREB regulated genes are involved in memory and neuronal survival. We ... Read more...

Lithium-induced enhancement of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation in human brain tissue.

30 Jul 2009 OBJECTIVES: Extensive preclinical and clinical evidence suggests mitochondrial dysfunction in bipolar disorder. Studies of brain energy metabolism in bipolar disorder suggest an impairment of energy generation by mitochondrial oxidative ... Read more...

GABA and cortical inhibition in motor and non-motor regions using combined TMS-EEG: a time analysis.

23 Jul 2009 OBJECTIVE: The induction of long interval cortical inhibition (LICI) in motor cortex with paired pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (ppTMS) is an established paradigm for the assessment of cortical inhibition, proposed to be related to GABA(B) ... Read more...
