A Numerical Model to Study Effect of Potential-Dependent Influx on Calcium Diffusion in Neuron Cells
Abstract: Electrical activity within the brain rapidly encodes information about the world but for these fleeting perceptions to have a lasting impact, long-term changes in the structure and function of neurons must follow. At the synapse, neurotransmitter reception initiates a number of biochemical signaling cascades in the postsynaptic cells, one of the most important of which is the elevation of intracellular calcium. Early events induced by the rise of calcium in …

A Short Review on Long-Term Effects of Botox on Neuronal Sprouting: Mechanisms and Its Clinical Implications
Abstract: Botulinum toxin (Botox) is extensively used for its ability to induce temporary muscle paralysis through inhibition of acetylcholine release at neuromuscular junctions. While its short-term effects are well documented, emerging evidence suggests that chronic use of Botox may trigger neuronal sprouting, a process that could have significant long-term implications. This review synthesizes current research on the mechanisms by which Botox induces nerve sprouting and evaluates the clinical outcomes associated with …

Dysarthria and Dysphagia in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: A Case Study
Abstract: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is the most common motor neuron disease affecting the bulbar, limb and respiratory muscles. ALS is generally characterized by progressive degeneration of both upper motor neuron (UMN) and lower motor neuron (LMN) dysfunction leading to a ‘mixed’ spastic-flaccid dysarthria. To date, only a few studies have been published regarding the nature of speech characteristics and dysphagia during the developmental course of ALS. The present study highlighted …

Structure based pharmacophore Modelling of compounds against Neurodegenerative disorder – Amyotrophic Lateral sclerosis
Abstract: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease characterized by the progressive degeneration of motor neurons, leading to muscle dysfunction, paralysis, and eventually death. These diseases are classified as ALS variations because autopsies reveal abnormalities in both upper and lower motor neurons. These disorders account for only 10% of all adult-onset motor neuron disease cases. Despite extensive research efforts, effective therapeutic interventions for ALS remain limited. Structure-based pharmacophore modeling …

A Review on Applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Parkinsons’s Disease Diagnosis and Treatment and Its Future Challenges
Abstract: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a long-term, progressive neurodegenerative disorder that mainly occurs in people older than 60 years, affecting nearly 1% of this population. It is chiefly marked by the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra, a crucial brain region responsible for controlling motor functions. The resultant dopamine deficiency significantly disrupts motor control, manifesting in clinical symptoms such as tremors, bradykinesia, muscle rigidity, and postural instability. While PD …

Parsing of Sensory Perception in Oscillatory Networks Through Cross Frequency Coupling of Memory Synchronization: Revelation of Enhanced Learning by Autistic Brain
Abstract: The brain faces many complex problems when dealing with multidimensional signals, which is usually experienced as unitary precepts. We used neuronal spike patterns to determine synchronization dynamics of neuronal activity for computer-generated color patterns in aid of synchronization of neuronal activity for memory formation in autistic subjects. In particular, this gives functional organization of neuronal circuits and interesting relationships between these oscillations and interneuronal coupling that suggest an enhanced mechanism …

A Review on Effect of Fluoxetine on Human Brain
Abstract: Fluoxetine is a frequently prescribed antidepressant drug that primarily affects the neurotransmitter system of the human brain. Fluoxetine affects the brain by preventing serotonin from being reabsorbed, which raises the concentration of serotonin in the synaptic cleft. In numerous neuronal circuits across the brain, serotonin, a neurotransmitter linked to mood regulation and emotional stability, is essential. By inhibiting the serotonin transporter, fluoxetine increases serotonin transfer and promotes neurotransmission in these …

REVIEW ON PICK´S DISEASE
Abstract: Pick´s disease is a serious clinicopathological condition that causes the frontotemporal lobe to atrophy circumferentially. Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) is now the clinical diagnosis for patients with dementia who have frontotemporal atrophy. FTLD with TDP-43-positive inclusions, corticobasal degeneration, progressive supranuclear palsy, basophilic inclusion body disease, neuronal intermediate filament inclusion disease, and argyrophilic grain disease are additional underlying diseases in FTLD patients.

Circadian Regulation of Lipid Peroxidation in the Brain: Linking Ferroptosis to Neurodegenerative Vulnerability
Abstract: The human brain operates through highly coordinated physiological and biochemical processes that regulate cognition, behavior, and neural adaptability. Central to these processes are mechanisms governing brain function, neurophysiology, and neuroplasticity, which are increasingly recognized to be influenced by circadian rhythms. Recent advances in cognitive neuroscience, neuroimaging, and behavioral neuroscience have revealed that disruptions in circadian regulation can significantly impact oxidative balance within the brain, particularly through enhanced lipid peroxidation.

Stress Detection System Using Internet of Things
Abstract: A change in electrical potential is caused by the confluence of hundreds of brain neurons, which is reflected by a brainwave. When a neuron has accumulated enough energy, it receives messages from nearby neurons and begins a cyclic discharge process. People also emit brainwaves on a regular basis for this reason. According to researchers at Michigan University's Laboratory of Brain Recognition and Behavior, long-term multitasking reduces productivity, and filtering out …

A Rare Case Report on Familial Dysautonomia (Familial Dysautonomia)
Abstract: Familial dysautonomia (FD) is a genetic disorder of neurodevelopment within classification of both hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathies, each caused by a different genetic error. IKBKAP gene is responsible for the genetic error in FD. The maintenance and development of neurons occur because there is neuropathological and clinical progression. Pathological alterations consist of decreased unmyelinated and small-fiber neurons. The clinical features reflect involvement of both sensory and autonomic neurons. Sensory …
