Efficacy of doublecortin as a marker to analyse the absolute number anddendritic growth of newly generated neurons in the adult dentate gyrus

MS Rao, AK Shetty - European Journal of Neuroscience, 2004 - Wiley Online Library
Doublecortin (DCX), a microtubule‐associated phosphoprotein, has been recently utilized
as a marker of newly born neurons in the adult dentate gyrus (DG). Nonetheless, it is …

Chronic temporal lobe epilepsy is associated with severely declined dentate neurogenesis in the adult hippocampus

B Hattiangady, MS Rao, AK Shetty - Neurobiology of disease, 2004 - Elsevier
While it is clear that acute hippocampal injury or status epilepticus increases the production
of new neurons in the adult dentate gyrus (DG), the effects of chronic epilepsy on dentate …

The window and mechanisms of major age‐related decline in the production of new neurons within the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus

MS Rao, B Hattiangady, AK Shetty - Aging cell, 2006 - Wiley Online Library
While it is well known that production of new neurons from neural stem/progenitor cells (NSC)
in the dentate gyrus (DG) diminishes greatly by middle age, the phases and mechanisms …

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor, phosphorylated cyclic AMP response element binding protein and neuropeptide Y decline as early as middle age in the dentate …

B Hattiangady, MS Rao, GA Shetty, AK Shetty - Experimental neurology, 2005 - Elsevier
The hippocampus is very susceptible to aging. Severely diminished dentate neurogenesis at
middle age is one of the most conspicuous early changes in the aging hippocampus, which …

Newly born cells in the ageing dentate gyrus display normal migration, survival and neuronal fate choice but endure retarded early maturation

MS Rao, B Hattiangady… - European Journal of …, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
Addition of new granule cells to the dentate gyrus (DG) from stem or progenitor cells declines
considerably during ageing. However, potential age‐related alterations in migration, …

Objective: To study the effect of Tinospora cordifolia (Tc) on learning and memory in normal
and cyclosporine induced memory deficit rats. Methods: Alcoholic and aqueous extracts of …

Hippocampal neurodegeneration, spontaneous seizures, and mossy fiber sprouting in the F344 rat model of temporal lobe epilepsy

MS Rao, B Hattiangady, DS Reddy… - Journal of …, 2006 - Wiley Online Library
The links among the extent of hippocampal neurodegeneration, the frequency of spontaneous
recurrent motor seizures (SRMS), and the degree of aberrant mossy fiber sprouting (MFS) …

KS Rai, KD Murthy, KS Karantha, MS Rao - Indian Journal of Physiology …, 2001 - ijpp.com
Neonatal rat pups (7 days old) were intubated with either 50 mg/kg body weight or 100 mg/kg
body weight of aqueous root extract of Clitoria ternatea (CTR) for 30 days. These rats were …

Effect of chronic restraint stress on dendritic spines and excrescences of hippocampal CA3 pyramidal neurons—a quantitative study

MS Rao, TR Raju - Brain research, 1995 - Elsevier
Effect of chronic restraint stress on the number of dendritic spines and excrescences of
hippocampal CA3 pyramidal neurons has been investigated. The results revealed a significant …
