MiR-186-5p inhibition restores synaptic transmission and neuronal network activity in a model of chronic stress by Rodrigues, B, Leitão, RA, Santos, M, Trofimov, A, Silva, M, Inácio, ÂS, Abreu, M, Nobre, RJ, Costa, J, Cardoso, AL, Milosevic, I, Peça, J, Oliveiros, B, Pereira de Almeida, L, Pinheiro, PS, Carvalho, AL

“…Additionally, viral overexpression of miR-186-5p in the PFC of naïve mice induces anxiety- and depressive-like behaviours. The upregulation of miR-186-5p through prolonged glucocorticoid receptor activation in vitro, or in a mouse model of chronic stress, differentially affects glutamatergic and GABAergic synaptic transmission, causing an imbalance in excitation/inhibition that leads to altered neuronal network activity. …”

Ottoman painting and painters during the First World War by Tongo, G

“…This study details the diverse institutions, exhibitions, patrons, collectors, critics, and artists who made up wartime Ottoman art world, as well as the rich variety of visual images produced during the war years, from popular illustrations to easel paintings. During the war, like other belligerent governments, the Ottoman state and semi-official patriotic associations commissioned artists to produce war-related works for internal and international propaganda purposes and, as the war progressed, as a historical record of national endeavour. …”

Magnetic field amplification in laser-produced plasmas by Meinecke, J

“…In the early universe, matter was nearly homogeneously distributed; today, as a result of gravitational instabilities, it forms a web-like structure of clusters, filaments, and voids. …”

The peacemakers: envisioning a Pax Americana in the age of empires by Suchak, N

“…Between 1895 and 1906, the United States, much like its European counterparts, was beset with imperial crises; it violently acquired an insular empire and jostled for position with other empires, as the global imperial system grew to its most expansive and fractious.…”

Another world is possible: reconceptualizing the “safe space”metaphor at a feminist safer space in New York City by Dlugatch, R

“…However, the potential of sites like these to offer cultural critique and provoke new ways of thinking about safety (and violence) has been overlooked. …”

The KDEL receptor by Bräuer, P

“…Comparison with other membrane proteins suggests how the KDELR likely evolved from an ancestral secondary active transporter, demonstrating that transporter-like architectures may have been adapted to transmit signals across cell membranes.…”

A pure world: moral cognition and spiritual experiences in Chinese World of Warcraft by Hornbeck, R

“…Chapter 4 argues that social agencies operant in the lives of C<em>WoW</em> players motivated players to utilise these morally relevant aspects of gameplay as a 'religion-like tool for group cohesion' (following Sosis &amp; Alcorta, 2008). …”

Global availability of medications and health technologies for kidney care: A multinational study from the ISN-GKHA by Kelly, DM, Jones, ESW, Barday, Z, Arruebo, S, Caskey, FJ, Damster, S, Donner, J, Jha, V, Levin, A, Nangaku, M, Saad, S, Tonelli, M, Ye, F, Okpechi, IG, Bello, AK, Johnson, DW

“…There was reduced capacity for the management of CKD mineral bone disease in low-income countries (LICs) - serum parathyroid hormone was available in only 26% (n = 5) of LICs and the ability to administer non-calcium-based phosphate binders and cinacalcet was also very limited in LICs [16% (n = 3) and 5% (n = 1), respectively]. Nutritional services like oral supplements were accessible in 32% (n = 6) of LICs versus 97% (n = 61) of high-income countries. …”
