This study shows chronic fentanyl reduces anxiety-like behavior in opioid-dependent rats, with sex-specific effects, suggesting potential for misuse due to anxiolytic effects.

This study examines sex differences in anxiety-like behavior in male and female mice using open field and elevated plus maze tests, finding convergent activity measures but divergent anxiety dimensions.

This study shows AB-free kava reduces anxiety-like behavior in mice without sedation but does not prevent nicotine-induced suppression of exploration.

This study shows that PERK deficiency worsens molecular, structural, and network damage in mice after repetitive mild traumatic brain injury.

This paper examines how beta-amyloid affects static and dynamic functional connectomes in mice and humans, finding species-specific differences in network stability and dynamics.

This study shows that CBD reduces oxycodone self-administration in rats with neuropathic pain without diminishing oxycodone's pain-relieving effects.

The paper examines how amyloidosis affects functional network hub topology and gene expression in male and female APP-PS1 mice, finding sex-dependent changes in connectivity and gene signatures.

This study uses multimodal neuroimaging to compare functional connectivity and tissue microstructure in two rat TBI models, finding distinct neuroadaptive differences.

The paper evaluates NeuroCombat's effectiveness in harmonizing multi-site neuroimaging data from TBI rat models, showing improved statistical power and effect size after outlier removal and global sham population harmonization.

This study examines how APOE4 and APOE3 homozygosity affect functional brain networks and contextual memory in mice across age, showing differential network development and memory disruption in APOE4 adults.

This study investigates how an obesogenic diet and psychosocial stress during adolescence affect brain health, revealing synergistic impacts on neuroinflammation, gut microbiota, and gene methylation.

This study shows cannabis smoke and oral Δ9THC improve working memory in aged rats but not young adults, without affecting hippocampus-dependent memory.

This study examines age-related changes in affective behaviors and functional connectivity in mice, finding differences in behavior, connectivity, and metabolome across age groups.

This study examines how age affects brain connectivity and white matter integrity after repetitive mild traumatic brain injuries in mice using multimodal imaging techniques.

This study investigates how repetitive mild traumatic brain injury (rmTBI) affects brain functional connectivity and protein profiles in mice, revealing altered connectivity and inflammatory responses.

This study examines functional connectome changes in a rat TBI model, finding increased connectivity and modularity in contralesional areas early post-injury, with partial recovery by day 30.

This study shows adropin protects against ischemic stroke by maintaining BBB integrity and reducing neuroinflammation, improving functional recovery in mice.

The paper shows that a familiar contextual stimulus before imaging alters functional connectivity metrics like network strength and eigenvector centrality in rats, while an unfamiliar social stimulus does not.

This study shows that deleting ZIP14 in the intestine causes manganese overload in the brain and motor defects, highlighting its role in manganese excretion.

This study uses multi-scale imaging to show that aged rats have altered functional connectivity and increased dorsal striatal Arc expression during cognitive multi-tasking.

The paper uses dMRI to study how Aβ and IL6 affect microstructure in TgCRND8 mice, finding increased neurite density and dispersion linked to reduced functional network organization.
