Factor Neurotrófico Cerebral Dopaminérgico (CDNF): efectos sobre las neuronas dopaminérgicas
Universitat Jaume I (2016-07-21)Los Factores Neurotróficos (NTFs) son pequeñas proteínas que promueven el desarrollo y supervivencia de diferentes tipos celulares. Existen tres familias de NTFs: Neurotrofinas, Neurokinas y Ligandos del Factor Neurotrófico ... -
Infrared imaging as measure of cognitve stress, validated through well-established stress markers: electrodermal activity and heart rate variability. A pilot study
Universitat Jaume I (2016-07-21)OBJECTIVE: To explore thermography as a possible new technique for the objectification of stress measurement. In such a way, we have compared it with well-stablished measures of stress, electrodermal activity (EDA) and ... -
HRV is a reliable index of good and bad emotion regulation
Universitat Jaume I (2016-07-21)Emotion regulation depends critically on an individual’s ability to adjust physiological arousal on a momentary basis. The ease with which an individual can transition between high and low arousal states is dependent on ... -
An examination of different etiological pathways to alcohol use and misuse in adolescence
Universitat Jaume I (2016-07-21)Alcohol abuse, especially among adolescents, causes important health, economic and social problems. Different theoretical pathways have been suggested for the etiology of alcohol use and abuse. The aim of our study was ... -
A comparative study of the protein levels of Insulin and IGF-1 receptors and receptor substrates in a rat model of development and agind in different brain areas
Universitat Jaume I (2016-07-21)Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is one of the most common causes of dementia. AD is a progressive, degenerative, and irreversible neurological disorder that cause early, cognitive impairment, memory loss, and behaviour changes. ... -
Preliminar study of calcium binding proteins in A β-Amyloid iinjected model
Universitat Jaume I (2016-09-22)Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease and it is characterized by a progressive cognitive decline with memory loss. Histopathological examination of AD postmortem brains revealed the presence ... -
Gray matter reduction in the fusiform gyrus in Spanish children with dyslexia
Universitat Jaume I (2016-09-22)Voxel-based morphometry studies have reported reduced gray matter volume in temporal areas (fusiform gyrus) and cerebellum in children with developmental dyslexia compared to healthy controls. These areas with less gray ... -
Music Perception skills and music reward : a Voxel-Based Morphometry Study of Individual Differences
Universitat Jaume I (2016-09-22)Individual differences in music perception skills and in levels of pleasure induced by music can be easily found in general population. The present study aims at examining whether music perception skills can influence ... -
Plasticity in the prelimbic cortex a lesion of the dorsal cerebellar cortex in rats trained to acquire cocaine-induced preference conditioning
Universitat Jaume I (2016-09-22)Exposure to drugs of abuse induces plasticity in the brain and creates persistent drug-related memories. Drug seeking derives from an over-consolidation of such drug-dependent Pavlovian memories in the striatum-cortico-limbic ... -
Plasticity in the infralimbic cortex after a lesion of the dorsal posterior cerebellum: an inhibitory pathway for drug-dependent memories
Universitat Jaume I (2016-09-22)Addiction could be considered the result of pathological learning. Drug-associated cues become strong conditioned stimuli that create drug-related memories which promote drug seeking leading to relapse. Both, the ... -
To Dub or Not to Dub –That is the question!An fMRI study on the processing of funny clips in L2
Universitat Jaume I (2017-07-24)Recent behavioural research provides evidence that people using a foreign language (L2) make substantially more utilitarian decisions when presented with moral dilemmas. It is argued that this is due to a reduced emotional ... -
Cardiac defense response and negative emotionality
Universitat Jaume I (2017-07-24)Cardiac Defense Response (CDR) is a dynamic pattern of cardiac reactivity in response to an aversive, discrete, intense and unexpected stimulus consisting of two successive accelerative and decelerative components whose ... -
Amygdala and thalamus changes after a double deactivation on the infralimbic-cerebellum pathway
Universitat Jaume I (2017-09-21)The c erebellum plays an important role in addiction. It has been suggested that there is a functional netw ork between the cerebellum and i nfralimbic cortex that could play a ... -
Insulin signaling in hippocampus
Universitat Jaume I (2017-09-21)Neuroinflammation and insulin resistance are known to underlie many neurological alterations, including Alzheimer's disease. Neuroinflammation is associated with chronic microglia activation, which induces ... -
Can a future event change the pass? An fMRI study
Universitat Jaume I (2017-09-21)A large number of studies reveal that emotionally significant events are retained better than neutral events. A topic of interest is the retroactive effect of new emotional experiences on previous related ... -
Emotion in the heart: a study of heart rate variability and negative affect
Universitat Jaume I (2017-09-21)Heart Rate Variability (HRV) refers to the v ariation frequency of the heart beat s during a previously defined time interval (never exceeding 24 hours) in an analysis of consecutive circadian ... -
Individual differences in running wheel performance and preference for active versus passive reinforcers: role of DARPP32
Universitat Jaume I (2017-09-21)Background: Motivation is characterized by high levels of behavioral activation, vigor, persistence and goal directed behavior. These functions are impair ed in pathologies such as depression or Parkinson disease. ... -
Effects of brain insulin in conditioned place preference using exercise as a reward stimulus
Universitat Jaume I (2017-09-21)Researches suggest that physical activity is effective to prevent or treat stress-related psychiatric disorders such as depression, anxiety, and substance abuse disorders. Both, natural and drugs rewards is processed by ... -
Meta-analysis of grey matter atrophy in cocaine user disorder
