This study shows that chronic intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) induces axon initial segment (AIS) plasticity in cortical neurons, both in vitro and in vivo, suggesting non-synaptic mechanisms of rTMS effects.

This study examines how chronic stress during adolescence affects cognitive bias and brain connectivity differently in male and female rats, revealing sex-specific neural reorganization linked to depression risk.

This study identifies neuroimaging biomarkers of resilience and vulnerability to chronic stress in rats using machine learning and functional connectivity analysis.

This study explores youth perceptions of barriers and attitudes towards pharmacogenetic testing for antidepressant treatment optimization in primary care.

This paper shows that extended interval theta burst stimulation (eTBS) enhances antidepressant effects by reducing GABAergic inhibition and promoting glutamatergic plasticity.

This study shows that low intensity repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (LI-rTMS) enhances remyelination by increasing myelin production from new and surviving oligodendrocytes in a mouse model of demyelination.

This paper develops a finite element method model to translate low and medium intensity TMS findings from rodents to humans, showing how E-field values vary across species and coil types.

This study shows that prolonged static magnetic stimulation induces structural changes in the axon initial segment of inhibitory cortical neurons in mice.

The paper investigates how neuronal subtypes in the dorsal striatum contribute to perseverative behavior in ephrin-A2/A5-/- mice, finding increased c-Fos activity in habit-associated regions and delayed behavioral shifts with rTMS.

This study shows that low-intensity rTMS modulates brain-wide functional connectivity and neuronal activity, with anti-correlated effects in the amygdala and striatum.

This study shows subthreshold rTMS induces structural synaptic plasticity in both young and aged mouse motor cortex, with effects dependent on stimulation frequency.

The paper shows that mature myelin in adult mice is plastic and can modify node of Ranvier length and periaxonal space size to adjust action potential conduction velocity and synchronicity.

This study validates a chronic restraint stress model in rats for depression research using longitudinal MRI and behavioral tests, finding brain connectivity, neurometabolite, and structural changes linked to depression-like behaviors.
