Lactoferrin during lactation reduces lipopolysaccharide-induced brain injury

Yohan Van de Looij

Lactoferrin (Lf), component of maternal milk, has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. Neuroprotective effects of Lf on the immature brain have been recently shown in rodent models of intrauterine growth restriction and cerebral hyp ...

Spatiotemporal neuromodulation therapies engaging muscle synergies improve motor control after spinal cord injury

Silvestro Micera, Stéphanie Lacour, Grégoire Courtine, Jocelyne Bloch, Marco Capogrosso, Quentin Barraud, Eduardo Martin Moraud, Ivan Rusev Minev, Léonie Asboth, Jérôme Gandar, Nikolaus Wenger, Arthur Edouard Hirsch, Pavel Musienko, Laetitia Danielle Philippine Baud, Natalia Pavlova, Julie Kreider

Electrical neuromodulation of lumbar segments improves motor control after spinal cord injury in animal models and humans. However, the physiological principles underlying the effect of this intervention remain poorly understood, which has limited the ther ...

Neurobiological Mechanisms Involved in the Establishment and Maintenance of Dominance Hierarchies and its Modulation by Stress in Rats

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Marjan Timmer

Stress can have a strong and long lasting effect on the establishment and maintenance of dominance hierarchies in rats. When two rats of a pair have not been stressed (non-stressed pair) before a first social encounter, they establish a dominance hierarchy ...

Path planning versus cue responding: a bioinspired model of switching between navigation strategies

Ricardo Andres Chavarriaga Lozano

In this paper we describe a new computational model of switching between path-planning and cue-guided navigation strategies. It is based on three main assumptions: (i) the strategies are mediated by separate memory systems that learn independently and in p ...

Learning, Stress and the Role of Personality Profiles in Rats

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Basira Salehi

Stress has been shown to modulate many aspects of physiology and behavior. In particular, substantial work has confirmed that stress is a strong modulator of learning and memory processes. It is more than a century that Yerkes and Dodson have shown that re ...

Modeling Parkinson's Disease in Adult Rats Using Viral Vectors as Gene Delivery Tools

Julien Dusonchet

Animal models of human pathologies remain invaluable tools for unraveling disease mechanisms and evaluating potential therapeutic strategies. For a number of diseases, the lack of a reliable animal model represents an important limiting step towards the de ...

Influence of the level of polyandry and genetic architecture on division of labour

Dario Floreano, Laurent Keller

Genetic diversity is thought to be a main factor in determin ing task performance and behavioral plasticity of social insect colonies. This diversity has two main causes. a) Multiple matings by the colony queen (polyandry) and b) the number of regions on t ...
