Unmasking Root Causes of Stress/Anxiety
i-Fect Knocks Down Suspected Stress/Anxiety ReceptorThe molecular pathogenesis underlying anxiety disorders is still unclear. Here, the authors demonstrate that myristoylated alanine-rich C-kinase substrate like 1 (MARCKSL1) overexpression in mice increases spine formation in the amygdala and induces stress hormone upregulation and anxiety-like behaviors. Suppression of MARCKSL1 in the amygdala ameliorates both the increase in stress hormones and the elevated anxiety-like behaviors. Our results indicate that MARCKSL1 expression in the amygdala plays an important role in anxiety-like behaviors.This was proved, in part, by t...

A role for Galanin N-terminal fragment (1-15) In anxiety and depression in rats
Galanin (GAL) is involved in several functions including mood regulation. The GAL N-terminal fragment (1-15) [GAL(1-15)] also participates at central level and a differential role of GAL(1-15) compared with GAL has been proposed. In this work we have analysed if GAL(1-15) contributes to depression- and anxiety -related behaviours using the forced swimming test, tail suspension test, open field and light/dark test. We tested the involvement of the GAL receptor 2 (GALR2) in GAL(1-15) effects with the GAL receptor antagonist M871 and with an in vivo model of siRNA GALR2 knockdown rats.

i-Fect Delivers siRNA in vitro and in vivo
In this study data suggest the protective effects of EPO on NUV injuries are highly associated with the increase of p-Cx43, which improves GJIC to reduce neurotoxic substances: Ziyi Zhoua, Xiaobai Weib, Jun Xiang, Junpeng Gao, Lixin Wang, Jinsong You, Yefeng Cai , Dingfang Caid.

Involvement of Nrf2 in Development of Anxiety-Like Behavior by Linking Bcl2 to Oxidative Phosphorylation: Estimation in Rat Hippocampus, Amygdala, and Prefrontal Cortex
In this study, we evaluated whether silencing of Nrf2 plays a role in development of anxiety-related behavior. In this regard, we exerted small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting Nrf2 in dorsal third ventricle and subsequently examined the effect of this silencing on anxiety-related behavior along with supposed molecular mechanisms. Therefore, we evaluated apoptotic markers and mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) activity in three brain regions: hippocampus, amygdala, and prefrontal cortex. Based on our result, Nrf2-silenced rats exhibited greater anxiety-like behavior compared to control group. Furthermore, Nrf2 s...

HDAC2 and Anxiety in Alcoholism
The Impact of HDAC2 Gene Expression on AnxietyOur i-Fect Transfection Kit continues to be a potent tool for testing the impact of altered gene expression on behavior. see: SACHIN MOONAT. The Role of Amygdaloid Chromatin and Synaptic Remodeling in Anxiety and Alcoholism. THESIS Submitted as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Neuroscience in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Chicago, 2014.The author hypothesized that increased HDAC2 would have a positive impact on anxiety in alchohol preferring (P) rats. Specifically, HDAC2-induced histone modifications ...

i-Fect siRNA Transfection Successes
Meeting your Gene Expression Analysis Requirements.I have posted many success stories resulting from use of  Neuromics'  Neuromics' i-FectTM siRNA Transfection Kit. It has been 3 months since my last posting so here I would like to post some recent highlights. Here I feature customer publication demonstrating:Down regulation of Neuroligin 2-data showed unexpected upregulation and pronociceptive effects of the “inhibitory” NL2 in neuropathic pain, suggesting a functional shift of NL2 from inhibition to excitation that changed the synaptic ratio toward higher excitation.Role of IGFPB5 for survival of neurons in...
