Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor: A Key Molecule for Memory in the Healthy and the Pathological Brain

Magdalena Miranda, Juan Facundo Morici, María Belén Zanoni et al. · 7 Aug 2019

Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) is a key molecule involved in plastic changes related to learning and memory. The expression of BDNF is highly regulated, and can lead to great variability in BDNF levels in healthy subjects. Changes in BDNF expression are associated with both normal and pathological aging and also psychiatric disease, in particular…

Breaking down the barriers: the gut microbiome, intestinal permeability and stress-related psychiatric disorders

John R. Kelly, Paul J. Kennedy, John F. Cryan et al. · 14 Oct 2015

The emerging links between our gut microbiome and the central nervous system (CNS) are regarded as a paradigm shift in neuroscience with possible implications for not only understanding the pathophysiology of stress-related psychiatric disorders, but also their treatment. Thus the gut microbiome and its influence on host barrier function is positioned to be a critical…

Overview of General and Discriminating Markers of Differential Microglia Phenotypes

Agnieszka M. Jurga, Martyna Paleczna, Katarzyna Kuter · 6 Aug 2020

Inflammatory processes and microglia activation accompanies most of the pathophysiological diseases in the central nervous system. It is proven that glial pathology precedes and even drives development of multiple neurodegenerative conditions. A growing number of studies point out the importance of microglia in brain development as well as in the physiological functioning. Those resident brain…

Origin and differentiation of microglia

Florent Ginhoux, Shawn Lim, Guillaume Hoeffel et al. · 1 Jan 2013

Microglia are the resident macrophage population of the central nervous system (CNS). Adequate microglial function is crucial for a healthy CNS. Microglia are not only the first immune sentinels of infection, contributing to both innate and adaptive immune responses locally, but are also involved in the maintenance of brain homeostasis. Emerging data are showing new…

Traumatic Brain Injuries: Pathophysiology and Potential Therapeutic Targets

Si Yun Ng, Alan Yiu Wah Lee · 27 Nov 2019

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality amongst civilians and military personnel globally. Despite advances in our knowledge of the complex pathophysiology of TBI, the underlying mechanisms are yet to be fully elucidated. While initial brain insult involves acute and irreversible primary damage to the parenchyma, the ensuing…

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Frontiers format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience use?
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience uses Author–year (Harvard) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, A., Jones, B. and Lee, C. (2023) 'A representative article title', Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 12(3), pp. 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience?
