To date there is no cure for Alzheimers disease (AD).Emerging evidence indicates that cholesterol and isoprenoids may play important roles in the pathogenesis of AD.We have shown that treatment with a cholesterol-lowering drug, simvastatin (SV), enhances synaptic plasticity and rescues memory in a mouse model of AD.

Our research aims to understand neural mechanisms underlying speech motor control, particularly, how sensory cues arising from central auditory pathways are integrated with the motor system to guide t
Melatonin enhancement in central and autonomic cholinergic responses is showed in rat, with implications in drug development.We consider studies about mechanisms of neurodevelopment as a linking to un
Tinnitus is an auditory phantom sensation of sound in the absence of external auditory stimuli.It typically emerges as consequence of a hearing loss.In 1-3% of the population tinnitus sufficiently aff
Olfactory information is processed in central structures of the insect brain.i.e.the antennal lobes.In order to understand the underlying mechanism of signal processing we used the Gal 4 driver system
Pain and itch are two of the most common neurological symptoms associated with many diseases such as cancer, infection, immune disorders and metabolic disorders.Pain and itch are encoded and transduce
Aged taste ceils in taste buds are constantly replaced by young cells differentiated from basal cells during animals lifespan.Yet, the related mechanisms that regulate survival and death of taste cell
How do we perceive our body and where is it represented in our brain? Since decades it has been known that the primary somatosensory cortex (or SI), located on the postcentral gyrus, codes the surface
Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and Parkinsons Disease Dementia (PDD) are the most common Parkinsonian dementia syndromes.While motor features typically distinguish these conditions from Alzheimers Di
Varieties of undesired behavior events (UDBE) raise question of epileptic seizures (ES).Epilepsy monitoring (EM) is often inconclusive, secondary to limited diagnostic sensitivity.UDBE can be initial
Parkinsons Disease is a common neurodegenerative disease which its molecular mechanism is still unknown.1-Methyl-4-phenyipyridinium ion (MPP+) is used to make a Parkinsons Disease model in neuron cell
