Brain Behav Immun . 2024 Aug; 122:110-121. PMID: 39128570
The olfactory bulb (OB), a major structure of the limbic system, has been understudied in human investigations of psychopathologies such as depression. To explore more directly the molecular features of...

Hirsch-Reinshagen V, Hercher C, Vila-Rodriguez F, Neumann M, Rademakers R, Honer W, et al.
Neuropathol Appl Neurobiol . 2023 Jun; 49(4):e12921. PMID: 37386798
Aims: Psychotic symptoms are increasingly recognized as a distinguishing clinical feature in patients with dementia due to frontotemporal lobar degeneration with TDP-43 pathology (FTLD-TDP). Within this group, carriers of the...

Ramos-Miguel A, Hercher C, Beasley C, Barr A, Bayer T, Falkai P, et al.
Mol Neurodegener . 2015 Dec; 10:65. PMID: 26628003
Background: Presynaptic terminals contribute to cognitive reserve, balancing the effects of age-related pathologies on cognitive function in the elderly. The presynaptic protein Munc18-1, alternatively spliced into long (M18L) or short...

Hercher C, Chopra V, Beasley C
J Psychiatry Neurosci . 2014 Jun; 39(6):376-85. PMID: 24936776
Background: Brain imaging studies suggest that volume reductions and compromised white matter integrity occur in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder (BD). However, the cellular correlates have not yet been identified. To...

Torres-Platas S, Hercher C, Davoli M, Maussion G, Labonte B, Turecki G, et al.
Neuropsychopharmacology . 2011 Aug; 36(13):2650-8. PMID: 21814185
Increasing evidence suggests that cortical astrocytic function is disrupted in mood disorders and suicide. The fine neuroanatomy of astrocytes, however, remains to be investigated in these psychiatric conditions. In this...

Hercher C, Canetti L, Turecki G, Mechawar N
J Psychiatr Res . 2009 Sep; 44(5):286-93. PMID: 19765721
Background: It is hypothesized that mood disorders are accompanied by altered wiring and plasticity in key limbic brain regions such as the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC). To test this hypothesis...

J Psychiatry Neurosci . 2009 Jul; 34(4):281-8. PMID: 19568479
Background: Suicide is the most serious consequence of major depressive disorder (MDD). Although the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC; Brodmann area [BA] 24) has been increasingly investigated for its role in...

J Psychiatr Res . 2009 Feb; 43(11):947-61. PMID: 19233384
Alterations in brain plasticity are increasingly thought to play important roles in major depressive disorder (MDD) and suicide. To gain a better understanding of the gross structural changes observed in...
