Biggio F, Mostallino M, Talani G, Locci V, Mostallino R, Calandra G, et al.
Neuropharmacology . 2019 Apr; 151:45-54. PMID: 30935859
Environmental enrichment is known to improve brain plasticity and protect synaptic function from negative insults. In the present study we used the exposure to social enrichment to ameliorate the negative...

Aguglia E, Biggio G, Signorelli M, Mencacci C
Pharmacopsychiatry . 2014 May; 47(3):105-10. PMID: 24846085
Introduction: Major depression is a worldwide problem and often remains undetected and untreated. Given the low rates of detection plus the need to intervene in a short time, it is...

Giusi G, Alo R, Avolio E, Zizza M, Facciolo R, Talani G, et al.
Curr Med Chem . 2012 Jul; 19(24):4093-114. PMID: 22834800
To date, many scientific attempts have been directed towards the development of experimental models for the identification of neuronal mechanisms evoking cardiovascular and hemodynamic dysfunctions. The spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR),...

Motzo C, Porceddu M, Maira G, Flore G, Concas A, Dazzi L, et al.
J Psychopharmacol . 2012 Feb; 10(4):266-72. PMID: 22302972
The neurosteroid allopregnanolone is a potent and efficacious modulator of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) type A receptors. The effects of intracerebroventricular injection of allopregnanolone (5 to 15 μg in 5 μl)...

Matrisciano F, Nasca C, Molinaro G, Riozzi B, Scaccianoce S, Raggi M, et al.
Brain Res . 2010 Feb; 1325:112-20. PMID: 20153734
We used Flinder Sensitive Line (FSL) rats, a genetic model of unipolar depression, to examine whether changes in central GABAergic transmission are associated with a depressed phenotype. FSL rats showed...

Carta M, Murru L, Barabino E, Talani G, Sanna E, Biggio G
Neuroscience . 2008 May; 154(2):710-9. PMID: 18456415
The cerebellar cortex contributes to the control of movement, coordination, and certain cognitive functions. The cerebellar network is composed of five different types of neurons that are wired together in...

Serra M, Sanna E, Mostallino M, Biggio G
Eur Neuropsychopharmacol . 2006 Apr; 17(1):1-11. PMID: 16626946
Social isolation of rats immediately after weaning is associated to a reduction in the cerebrocortical and plasma concentrations of progesterone and its metabolites 3alpha,5alpha-TH PROG and 3alpha,5alpha-THDOC. Although we found...

Serra M, Pisu M, Floris I, Biggio G
Stress . 2006 Jan; 8(4):259-64. PMID: 16423714
Social isolation of rats both reduces the cerebrocortical and plasma concentrations of 3a-hydroxy-5a-pregnan-20-one (3a,5a-TH PROG) and 3a,5a-tetrahydrodeoxycorticosterone and potentiates the positive effects of acute stress and ethanol on the concentrations...
