Ahn JP (2022) Ablation of dorsomedial striatum patch compartment results in modification to reward-driven behaviors in rats. Mercer University School of Medicine Thesis.

Objective: This thesis intended to demonstrate that selective ablation of dorsomedial striatum (DMS) patch compartment neurons results in a significant impact on the initial development of reward-driven behaviors during the early stages of drug seeking behavior.

Summary: Through the use Dermorphin-SAP and training rats to self-administer cocaine, ablation of the patch compartment of the DMS resulted in an increase in early-stage lever pressing, suggesting that the DMS patch compartment contributes to reward-driven behaviors.

Usage: 17 ng/µl Dermorphin-SAP in sterile artificial cerebrospinal fluid (aCSF) to selectively ablate patch compartment neurons. Infusions into either the dorsomedial striatum or dorsolateral striatum (2 µl of infusion liquid).

Bosecke C (2022) A novel anxiety process biomarker via electrovestibulography. University of Manitoba Thesis.

Objective: Use electrophysiological technique of Electrovestibulography to measure field potentials caused by vestibular neurons in the ear canal in order to identify biomarkers associated with anxiety disorder.

Summary: Anxiety disorders have no known biomarkers and are diagnosed based on symptoms. Identifying biomarkers could help improve the accuracy of anxiety disorder diagnosis, but can be difficult because the brain regions implicated in anxiety are very deep within the brain.

Usage: 192 IgG-SAP (Cat. #IT-01) was used to lesion the cholinergic medial septum inputs to the hippocampus. 192 IgG-saporin was diluted to 0.35 µg/µl with sterile saline, and 0.4 µl was infused bilaterally into each ventral site of the medial septum.

Objective: To highlight the recent progress in combinatorial lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) with novel structures and properties for the delivery of small- and macromolecular therapeutics.

Summary: The administration of protein/LNP negatively impacted reproduction in rats, including sperm production, estrous cyclicity and testicular and ovarian morphology, without causing any significant side effects. This non-surgical approach can be developed into a safe and convenient strategy for controlling the overproduction of pet and wildlife.

Usage: Intravenous administration of saporin loaded LNPs

Objective: To provide a purified preparation of cochlear fibroblasts, which can be used in vitro for further investigations.

Summary: Subcultivation of the primary spiral ganglion cells culture removed the neurons from the culture and increased the fibroblast to glial cell ratio in the preparations. Direct immunolabeling for the Thy1-glycoprotein and the p75NGFR-enabled fluorescence-based cell sorting. This resulted in a cell culture of cochlear fibroblasts with a purity of more than 99%.

Usage: Cell Sorting (1:400)

Objective: To elucidate whether P2X7R affects nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) activity/expression and glutathione (GSH) synthesis under nitrosative stress in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced neuroinflammation.

Summary: The findings indicate that P2X7R may augment LPS-induced neuroinflammation by leading to Nrf2 degradation, aberrant glutamate-glutamine cycle, and impaired cystine/cysteine uptake, which would inhibit GSH biosynthesis.
