Caloric restriction eliminates the aging-related decline in NMDA and AMPA receptor subunits in the rat hippocampus and induces homeostasis
Shi, L.; Adams, Michelle M.; Linville, M.; Newton, I.; Forbes, M.; Long, A.; Riddle, D.; Brunso-Bechtold, J. (ElsevierAysel Sabuncu Brain Research Center (BAM), 2007)Caloric restriction (CR) extends life span and ameliorates the aging-related decline in hippocampal-dependent cognitive function. In the present study, we compared subunit levels of NMDA and AMPA types of the glutamate ... -
Confined linear carbon chains as a route to bulk carbyne
Shi, L.; Rohringer, P.; Suenaga, K.; Niimi, Y.; Kotakoski, J.; Meyer, J. C.; Peterlik, H.; Wanko, M.; Cahangirov, S.; Rubio, A.; Lapin, Z. J.; Novotny, L.; Ayala, P.; Pichler, T. (Nature Publishing Group, 2016-04)Strong chemical activity and extreme instability in ambient conditions characterize carbyne, an infinite sp1 hybridized carbon chain. As a result, much less has been explored about carbyne as compared to other carbon ... -
Polyyne electronic and vibrational properties under environmental interactions
Wanko, M.; Cahangirov, S.; Shi, L.; Rohringer, P.; Lapin, Z. J.; Novotny, L.; Ayala, P.; Pichler, T.; Rubio, A. (American Physical Society, 2016)Recently the novel system of linear carbon chains inside double-walled carbon nanotubes has extended the length of sp1 hybridized carbon chains from 44 to thousands of atoms [Shi, Nat. Mater. 15, 634 (2016)1476-112210.10 ... -
Spatial learning and memory deficits after whole-brain irradiation are associated with changes in nmda receptor subunits in the hippocampus
Shi, L.; Adams, Michelle M.; Long, A.; Carter, C.; Bennett, C.; Sonntag, W.; Nicolle, M.; Robbins, M.; D'Agostino, R.; Brunso-Bechtold, J. (Radiation Research Society., 2006)Whole-brain irradiation is used for the treatment of brain tumors, but can it also induce neural changes, with progressive dementia occurring in 20–50% of long-term survivors. The present study investigated whether 45 Gy ...
