Kenel-Pierre S, Duran E, Abi-Chaker A, Melendez F, Alghamdi H, Bornak A, et al.
J Vasc Surg . 2019 May; 70(6):1809-1815. PMID: 31113724
Objective: Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to improve survival of patients with blunt thoracic aortic injury (BTAI). Often, aortic surgical intervention may be delayed because of increased risk of...

Askew C, Lopez A, Wood M, Metherate R
Synapse . 2019 May; 73(9):e22116. PMID: 31081950
Nicotine activates nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and improves cognitive and sensory function, in part by its actions in cortical regions. Physiological studies show that nicotine amplifies stimulus-evoked responses in sensory cortex,...

Kwapis J, Alaghband Y, Lopez A, Long J, Li X, Shu G, et al.
J Neurosci . 2019 Apr; 39(25):4999-5009. PMID: 31000586
Aging is accompanied by cognitive deficits, including impairments in long-term memory formation. Understanding the molecular mechanisms that support preserved cognitive function in aged animals is a critical step toward identifying...

Lopez A, Hemstedt T, Jia Y, Hwang P, Campbell R, Kwapis J, et al.
Neuropharmacology . 2019 Apr; 153:13-19. PMID: 30998946
Propensity to relapse following long periods of abstinence is a key feature of substance use disorder. Drugs of abuse, such as cocaine, cause long-term changes in the neural circuitry regulating...

Johnson A, Thibeault K, Lopez A, Peck E, Sands L, Sanders C, et al.
Neuropsychopharmacology . 2019 Feb; 44(7):1189-1197. PMID: 30728447
While preclinical work has aimed to outline the neural mechanisms of drug addiction, it has overwhelmingly focused on male subjects. There has been a push in recent years to incorporate...

Doliner B, Jaller J, Lopez A, Lev-Tov H
J Vasc Surg Venous Lymphat Disord . 2019 Jan; 7(2):260-271.e1. PMID: 30660582
Objective: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess whether compression stockings or other interventions reduce the incidence of venous ulceration after acute deep venous thrombosis. Methods: We searched PubMed...

Alaghband Y, Kramar E, Kwapis J, Kim E, Hemstedt T, Lopez A, et al.
J Neurosci . 2018 Sep; 38(44):9514-9526. PMID: 30228227
Epigenetic mechanisms result in persistent changes at the cellular level that can lead to long-lasting behavioral adaptations. Nucleosome remodeling is a major epigenetic mechanism that has not been well explored...

Kwapis J, Alaghband Y, Kramar E, Lopez A, Ciernia A, White A, et al.
Nat Commun . 2018 Aug; 9(1):3323. PMID: 30127461
Aging is accompanied by impairments in both circadian rhythmicity and long-term memory. Although it is clear that memory performance is affected by circadian cycling, it is unknown whether age-related disruption...

Shu G, Kramar E, Lopez A, Huynh G, Wood M, Kwapis J
Learn Mem . 2018 Feb; 25(3):109-114. PMID: 29449454
Multiple epigenetic mechanisms, including histone acetylation and nucleosome remodeling, are known to be involved in long-term memory formation. Enhancing histone acetylation by deleting histone deacetylases, like HDAC3, typically enhances long-term...

Lopez A, Jia Y, White A, Kwapis J, Espinoza M, Hwang P, et al.
Addict Biol . 2018 Feb; 24(3):403-413. PMID: 29430793
Propensity to relapse, even following long periods of abstinence, is a key feature in substance use disorders. Relapse and relapse-like behaviors are known to be induced, in part, by re-exposure...
