Forest Microclimate as a Driver of Epiphytic Bryophyte Diversity Along a Subtropical Elevational GradientNARA Subscribed
Aim Considering the importance of microclimate in maintaining the diversity of epiphytic bryophytes, we investigated epiphytic bryophytes along an elevational gradient in the subtropical forest of eastern China to unravel the diversity patterns of epiphytic liverworts and mosses along the elevational gradients and the roles of forest microclimates, topographic variables and host plant composition attributes in shaping these el...
Improvement of Learning and Memory by Elevating Brain D-Aspartate in a Mouse Model of Fragile X SyndromeNARA Subscribed
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is an inherited human mental retardation that arises from expansion of a CGG repeat in the Fmr1 gene, causing loss of the fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP). It is reported that N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR)-mediated facilitation of long-term potentiation (LTP) and fear memory are impaired in Fmr1 knockout (KO) mice. In this study, biological, pharmacological, and electrophysiological...
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is one of the most common inherited mental retardation diseases and is caused by the loss of fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP) expression. The metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR) theory of FXS states that enhanced mGluR-dependent long-term depression (LTD) due to FMRP loss is involved in aberrant synaptic plasticity and autistic-like behaviors, but little is known about the underlying mol...
