Vyas A, Sapolsky R
Folia Parasitol (Praha)
. 2010 Jul;
57(2):88-94.
PMID: 20608470
The behavioural manipulation hypothesis posits that parasites can change the behaviour of hosts to increase the reproductive fitness of the parasite. The protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii fits this description well....

Behav Brain Res
. 2009 Aug;
205(2):535-43.
PMID: 19686780
Individual differences in coping response lie at the core of vulnerability to conditions like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Like humans, not all animals exposed to severe stress show lasting change...

Eur J Pharmacol
. 2009 Jul;
618(1-3):9-14.
PMID: 19619522
NAPVSIPQ (NAP), an 8 amino acid peptide derived from activity-dependent neuroprotective protein (ADNP), provides neuroprotection through interaction with microtubules. Previous results have demonstrated NAP protection against oxygen-glucose deprivation in hippocampal...

J Neural Transm (Vienna)
. 2009 Jun;
116(11):1411-6.
PMID: 19551468
The peptide NAP (NAPVSIPQ) was shown to protect neurons against a wide variety of insults. Particularly, NAP was shown to be neuroprotective in vitro against cyanide in hippocampal cultures and...

Ruby N, Hwang C, Wessells C, Fernandez F, Zhang P, Sapolsky R, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 2008 Oct;
105(40):15593-8.
PMID: 18832172
Decades of studies have shown that eliminating circadian rhythms of mammals does not compromise their health or longevity in the laboratory in any obvious way. These observations have raised questions...

Ferguson D, Sapolsky R
Hippocampus
. 2008 Jul;
18(11):1103-11.
PMID: 18651616
It is well established that mineralocorticoid receptors (MRs) and glucocorticoid receptors (GRs) influence hippocampal-dependent spatial memory. MRs are saturated in the presence of low corticosterone (CORT) levels; consequently receptor protein...

Ferguson D, Lin S, Sapolsky R
Neurosci Lett
. 2008 Apr;
437(1):1-4.
PMID: 18423865
Stress results in the release of glucocorticoids (GCs) which at high levels, impair performance on hippocampus-dependent tasks. Estrogen is neurotrophic and can rescue stress-induced memory impairments. Here we report the...

Peptides
. 2007 Sep;
28(10):2004-8.
PMID: 17869381
The femtomolar-acting protective peptide NAP (NAPVSIPQ), derived from activity-dependent neuroprotective protein (ADNP), is broadly neuroprotective in vivo and in vitro in cerebral cortical cultures and a variety of cell lines....

J Neurosci
. 2007 Jul;
27(30):8046-52.
PMID: 17652595
Glucocorticoids (GCs) and stress modulate specific phases of information processing. The modulatory affects of GCs on hippocampal function are thought to be mediated by the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) and the...
