PI3K/AKT/mTOR Pathway in Angiogenesis

Jayashree Karar, Amit Maity · 1 Jan 2011

The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway is activated in the majority of human cancers. This pathway is known to play a key role in numerous cellular functions including proliferation, adhesion, migration, invasion, metabolism, and survival, but in the current review we focus on its role in angiogenesis. PI3K activation may occur via…

Methods Used to Evaluate Pain Behaviors in Rodents

Jennifer R. Deuis, Lucie Dvořáková, Irina Vetter · 6 Sep 2017

Rodents are commonly used to study the pathophysiological mechanisms of pain as studies in humans may be difficult to perform and ethically limited. As pain cannot be directly measured in rodents, many methods that quantify "pain-like" behaviors or nociception have been developed. These behavioral methods can be divided into stimulus-evoked or non-stimulus evoked (spontaneous) nociception,…

NF-kappaB Signaling Pathways in Neurological Inflammation: A Mini Review

Ruey‐Horng Shih, Chen-Yu Wang, Chuen‐Mao Yang · 18 Dec 2015

The NF-κB (nuclear factor κ-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells) transcription factor family is a pleiotropic regulator of many cellular signaling pathways, providing a mechanism for the cells in response to a wide variety of stimuli linking to inflammation. The stimulated cells will be regulated by not only the canonical but also non-canonical NF-κB pathways. To…

Molecular Mechanisms of TDP-43 Misfolding and Pathology in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

A. Aditya Prasad, Vidhya Bharathi, Vishwanath Sivalingam et al. · 14 Feb 2019

TAR DNA binding protein 43 (TDP-43) is a versatile RNA/DNA binding protein involved in RNA-related metabolism. Hyper-phosphorylated and ubiquitinated TDP-43 deposits act as inclusion bodies in the brain and spinal cord of patients with the motor neuron diseases: amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD). While the majority of ALS cases (90-95%) are…

A simple role for BDNF in learning and memory?

Carla Cunha · 1 Jan 2010

Since its discovery almost three decades ago, the secreted neurotrophin brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has been firmly implicated in the differentiation and survival of neurons of the CNS. More recently, BDNF has also emerged as an important regulator of synaptogenesis and synaptic plasticity mechanisms underlying learning and memory in the adult CNS. In this review…

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Frontiers in Molecular 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 Molecular Neuroscience use?
Frontiers in Molecular 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 Molecular Neuroscience, 12(3), pp. 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience?
No. DocuGuru generates the FrontiersinHarvard LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Frontiers-ready Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience format with correct headings, figures, tables, and author–year citations.
What is Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience?
Frontiers journal. It is a life sciences and medicine journal, published by Frontiers.
