1. Benefits of physical exercise on Parkinson’s disease disorders induced in animal models
Abstract Aim: The preventive and therapeutic role of physical exercise in Parkinson’s disease (PD) has been the target of study of many scientific groups, and the research often is done in experimental models, especially rodents. Thus, the aim of this review was to analyze a database, elucidating the main benefits that the systematized practice of physic

2. Neurophysiological, cognitive-behavioral and neurochemical effects in practitioners of transcendental meditation - A literature review
RESUMO O termo meditação pode ser utilizado de diversas formas, de acordo com a técnica a que se refere. A meditação transcendental (MT) é uma dessas técnicas meditativas. A MT pode ser um modelo para pesquisas de meditação espiritual, diferentemente de técnicas de meditação baseadas em uma compreensão secular. O presente estudo objetiva realiza

3. Potential antidepressant effect of amantadine: a review of preclinical studies and clinical trials
Objective: Amantadine blocks N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors and has dopaminergic and noradrenergic action, a neurochemical profile that suggests its potential as an antidepressant drug. We conducted a systematic review of preclinical and clinical studies addressing the effects of amantadine in animal models of depression and in patients with depressi

4. Antidepressant-like effect of Hoodia gordonii in a forced swimming test in mice: evidence for involvement of the monoaminergic system
Hoodia gordonii is a plant species used traditionally in southern Africa to suppress appetite. Recently, it has been associated with a significant increase in blood pressure and pulse rate in women, suggesting sympathomimetic activity. The present study investigated the possible antidepressant-like effects of acute and repeated (15 days) administration of H

5. Early postnatal protein malnutrition impairs recognition memory in rats (Rattus norvegicus)
The initial period of postnatal life is critical for brain development in both rodents and humans. Protein malnutrition imposed during this period produces irreversible consequences that include structural, neurochemical, and functional changes in the central nervous system, leading to long-term alterations in behavioral and cognitive parameters, such as mem

6. Changes in the suprachiasmatic nucleus during aging: implications for biological rhythms
Animals have neural structures that allow them to anticipate environmental changes and then regulate physiological and behavioral functions in response to these alterations. The suprachiasmatic nucleus of the hypothalamus (SCN) is the main circadian pacemaker in many mammalian species. This structure synchronizes the biological rhythm based on photic informa

7. Brief daily postpartum separations from the litter alter dam response to psychostimulants and to stress
Neonatal handling induces several behavioral and neurochemical alterations in pups, including decreased responses to stress and reduced fear in new environments. However, there are few reports in the literature concerning the behavioral effects of this neonatal intervention on the dams during the postpartum period. Therefore, the aim of the current study was

8. Mapping and signaling of neural pathways involved in the regulation of hydromineral homeostasis
Several forebrain and brainstem neurochemical circuitries interact with peripheral neural and humoral signals to collaboratively maintain both the volume and osmolality of extracellular fluids. Although much progress has been made over the past decades in the understanding of complex mechanisms underlying neuroendocrine control of hydromineral homeostasis, s

9. Efeitos da restrição proteica gestacional em hipocampo de ratos machos adultos : avaliação da estrutura dendrítica tridimensional, do comportamento e de componentes neuroquímicos = Effects of gestational protein restriction in hippocampus of adult male rats / Effects of gestational protein restriction in hippocampus of adult male rats : evaluation of three-dimensional dendritic structure of hippocampal neurons, behavior and neurochemical components
Studies have demonstrated that maternal nutritional restriction during pregnancy or in early postnatal life results in hippocampus cognitive impairment and structural abnormalities in the 16-wk-old offspring. In an attempt to analyze whether gestational protein restriction might induce learning and memory impairment associated with structural changes in the

10. Padrão da atividade locomotora e expressão de EAAC1 e GLT1 no córtex pré-frontal e entorrinal de ratos criados em isolamento a partir do desmame / Pattern of locomotor activity and expression of EAAC1 and GLT1 in prefrontal and entorhinal cortex of rats reared in isolation from weaning
Isolation rearing of rats from weaning has been used as an experimental model of psychiatric disorders like schizophrenia. It has been demonstrated that isolation induces morphological, behavioral (like hyperactivity in a novel environment) and neurochemical changes similar to those reported for humans with schizophrenia. Evidence suggest that glutamatergic

11. New perspective on the pathophysiology of panic: merging serotonin and opioids in the periaqueductal gray
Panic disorder patients are vulnerable to recurrent panic attacks. Two neurochemical hypotheses have been proposed to explain this susceptibility. The first assumes that panic patients have deficient serotonergic inhibition of neurons localized in the dorsal periaqueductal gray matter of the midbrain that organize defensive reactions to cope with proximal th
