In #openaccess#BPLjournal 7:2, Drs. Peter Hamor and Marek Schwendt (@UFPsychology) review the molecular machinery regulating metabotropic glutamate receptor trafficking/expression in both rodents and humans, and relate dysfunction to drug-induced synaptic plasticity alterations.
Dr. Shepherd et al. reviewed preclinical investigations of environmental enrichment, physical exercise, & #AlzheimersDisease. Only evidence of cognitive improvements was consistent in spatial memory tasks.

Zheng et al. report that compared to usual physical activity, 24 weeks of traditional Chinese Baduanjin mind-body exercise increased gray matter volume and improved cognition in older adults with MCI.
Out now in issue 7:2 of the #openaccess#BPLjournal.

Recall this paper from Walsh et al. in #openaccess#BPLjournal issue 7:1?
Although anti-inflammatory glucocorticoids upregulate MERTK, DNA promoter regions did not respond directly to dexamethasone treatment.

Follow us this week to catch up on #openaccess#BPLjournal articles from our recent issue (7:1)
First up, Walsh et al. identify & report elements of the MERTK gene transcriptional promotor, a gene that is dysregulated in #MultipleSclerosis
