The Association between Major Depressive Disorder in Childhood and Risk Factors for Cardiovascular Disease in Adolescence
Jonathan Rottenberg,Ilya Yaroslavsky,Robert M. Carney,Kenneth E. Freedland,Charles J. George,Ildikó Baji,Roberta Dochnal,Júlia Gádoros,Kitti Halas,Krisztina Kapornai,Enikő Kiss,Viola Kothencné Osváth,Hedvig Varga,Ágnes Vetró,Maria Kovacs +14 more
TL;DR: Major depression in childhood is associated with an unfavorable CVD risk profile in adolescence, and risks for pediatric depression and CVD may coincide in families.
Oestrogen-Modulated Increase of Calmodulin-Dependent Protein Kinase II (CamKII) in Rat Spinal Trigeminal Nucleus After Systemic Nitroglycerin
TL;DR: NTG, i.e. NO, selectively enhances CamKII in the rat TNC and oestradiol blocks this effect, which may help to understand the mechanisms by which NO triggers migraine attacks and Oestrogens influence migraine severity.

Comparative study on the effects of kynurenic acid and glucosamine–kynurenic acid
Judit Füvesi,Csaba Somlai,Hajnalka Németh,Hedvig Varga,Hedvig Varga,Zsolt Kis,Tamás Farkas,Norbert Károly,Márton B. Dobszay,Zsuzsa Penke,Botond Penke,László Vécsei,László Vécsei,József Toldi +13 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that the two compounds have similar effects, but that KYNA-NH-GLUC passes the blood-brain barrier much more readily than does KYNA, which implies that the conjugated NH- GLUC is of importance in the passage across the BBB.

Evaluation of c-Fos immunoreactivity in the rat brainstem nuclei relevant in migraine pathogenesis after electrical stimulation of the trigeminal ganglion
Zsuzsanna Bohár,Zsuzsanna Bohár,Annamária Fejes-Szabó,Lilla Tar,Hedvig Varga,János Tajti,Árpád Párdutz,László Vécsei,László Vécsei +8 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the activation of the trigeminal system in the rat by electrical stimulation of thetrigeminal ganglion leads to theactivation of the descending pain modulatory system, but not to the activated of “migraine generator” nuclei.
Selective inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 attenuates nitroglycerin-induced calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II alpha in rat trigeminal nucleus caudalis.
Hedvig Varga,Árpád Párdutz,Eniko Vamos,Zsuzsanna Bohár,Ferenc Bago,János Tajti,Ferenc Bari,László Vécsei +7 more
TL;DR: COX-2, but not COX-1 derived metabolites are important factors in the NTG-induced CamKIIalpha expression, suggesting this isoform may play a significant role in the induction of migraine.
