Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease--alteration in ganglioside sphingosine in the brain of a patient.

abstract：:Aquaporin-1 (AQP1) is a water channel expressed in the choroid plexus and participates in forming cerebrospinal fluid. Interestingly, reactive astrocytes also express AQP1 in the central nervous system under some pathological conditions. On the other hand, 3-nitropropionic acid (3NP) is a mitochondrial toxin that caus...

abstract：:Any given region of the cerebral cortex gets multiple inputs, and how these inputs are combined or selected is a key component of cortical function. Experiments in brain slices or other reduced preparations have shown that excitatory inputs to cortex produce a delayed feed-forward inhibition, which suggests that the r...
