Distribution of the branched-chain α-ketoacid dehydrogenase complex E1α subunit and glutamate dehydrogenase in the human brain and their role in neuro-metabolism (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017 Glutamate is the major excitatory neurotransmitter of the central nervous system, with the branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) acting as key nitrogen donors for de novo glutamate synthesis. Despite the importance of these major metabolites, the...

The impact of ageing reveals distinct roles for human dentate gyrus and CA3 in pattern separation and object recognition memory (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017 The Author(s). Both recognition of familiar objects and pattern separation, a process that orthogonalises overlapping events, are critical for effective memory. Evidence is emerging that human pattern separation requires dentate gyrus. Dentate...

Enhanced task-related brain activation and resting perfusion in healthy older adults after chronic blueberry supplementation (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017, Canadian Science Publishing. All rights reserved. Blueberries are rich in flavonoids, which possess antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. High flavonoid intakes attenuate age-related cognitive decline, but data from human intervention...
