Connecting Cerebral White Matter Lesions and Hypertensive Target Organ Damage by Cristina Sierra, Alfons López-Soto, Antonio Coca

“…Chronic hypertension leads to concomitant remodeling of the cardiac and vascular systems and various organs, especially the brain, kidney, and retina. The brain is an early target of organ damage due to high blood pressure, which is the major modifiable risk factor for stroke and small vessel disease. …”

The pharmacodynamic modulation effect of oxytocin on resting state functional connectivity network topology by Abraham Tonny Hagan, Lei Xu, Benjamin Klugah-Brown, Jialin Li, Xi Jiang, Keith M. Kendrick

“…Network-based statistical analysis and graph theoretical approaches were employed to evaluate oxytocin’s effects on whole-brain functional connectivity and graph topological measures.ResultsOur results revealed that oxytocin altered connectivity patterns within brain networks involved in sensory and motor processing, attention, memory, emotion and reward functions as well as social cognition, including the default mode, limbic, frontoparietal, cerebellar, and visual networks. …”

Effect of Electroacupuncture at Auricular Vagus Nerve on Depression and Anxiety-Like Behaviours of Mice with Preweaning Maternal Separation by WU Nan, WANG Qiang, LI Yongfeng, WU Yuwei, QIAO Haifa, LI Guohui, YUAN Wei

“…Compared with the model group, the number of c-fos neurons in the DRN and PFC brain regions of the EA group was significantly higher, and the number of 5-HT neurons in the DRN brain region of the EA group was significantly higher (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05).ConclusionElectroacupuncture at auricular vagus nerve can improve depression and anxiety-like behaviours of PMS mice, and the specific mechanism may be related to the regulation of c-fos expression in DRN and PFC brain regions and the number of 5-HT neurons in DRN brain regions.…”
