DOI: 10.1002/cne.25460
Abstract: An important factor that can modulate neuron properties is sex‐specific hormone fluctuations, including the human menstrual cycle and rat estrous cycle in adult females. Considering the striatal brain regions, the nucleus accumbens (NAc) core, NAc… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11011-021-00812-6
Abstract: Worldwide, the excessive consumption of fat and/or sugar has increased considerably. Palatable high-fat diets (HFDs) lead to metabolic disturbances and obesity, and impact emotional and cognitive processes. Previous studies in rodent models suggested that HFDs often… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.brainres.2018.01.008
Abstract: Studies have shown that changes in ovarian hormone concentrations promote natural fluctuations in the density of dendritic spines of hippocampal neurons in female Sprague-Dawley rats, without changes in dendritic length, throughout the estrous cycle. However,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.isci.2021.102850
Abstract: Summary Visceral hypersensitivity (VH) is a hallmark of many functional gastrointestinal disorders including irritable bowel syndrome and is categorized by a dull, diffuse sensation of abdominal pain. Recently, the gut microbiota has been implicated in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neures.2021.07.001
Abstract: Females display changes in distinct behaviors along the estrous cycle. Levels of circulating ovarian sex steroid hormones peak around ovulation, which occur around estrus phase of the cycle. This increase of sex hormones is thought… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroscience.2018.03.035
Abstract: The posterodorsal medial amygdala (MePD) is a sex steroid-sensitive and sexually dimorphic subcortical area that dynamically modulates social behaviors in rats. As different microRNA (miRNA) can act as post-transcriptional regulators of synaptic processing, we addressed… read more here.
