Microglia Morphological Categorization in a Rat Model of Neuroinflammation by Hierarchical Cluster and Principal Components Analysis.
María del Mar Fernández-Arjona,Jesús M. Grondona,Pablo Granados-Durán,Pedro Fernández-Llebrez,M. D. López-Avalos +4 more
TL;DR: Microglia undergo a quantifiable morphological change upon neuraminidase induced inflammation and an objective method for microglia classification based on morphological parameters is proposed.
IGF‐I stimulates neurogenesis in the hypothalamus of adult rats
Margarita Pérez-Martín,Manuel Cifuentes,Jesús M. Grondona,M. D. López-Avalos,Ulises Gómez-Pinedo,José Manuel García-Verdugo,Pedro Fernández-Llebrez +6 more
TL;DR: After intracerebroventricular treatment with insulin‐like growth factor I (IGF‐I), cell proliferation significantly increased in both the periventricular and the parenchymal zones of the whole hypothalamus, suggesting that the central overlapping zone of the rat hypothalamic wall could be considered a neurogenic niche in response to IGF‐I.

Pharmacological blockade of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) by URB597 improves memory and changes the phenotype of hippocampal microglia despite ethanol exposure
Patricia Rivera,María del Mar Fernández-Arjona,Daniel Silva-Peña,Eduardo Blanco,Antonio Vargas,M. D. López-Avalos,Jesús M. Grondona,Antonia Serrano,Francisco Javier Pavón,Fernando Rodríguez de Fonseca,Juan Suárez +10 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that FAAH inhibition may modulates hippocampal microglial recruitment and activation that can be associated with improved hippocampal‐dependent memory despite ethanol exposure.

The subcommissural organ and the development of the posterior commissure.
Jesús M. Grondona,Carolina Hoyo-Becerra,Rick Visser,Pedro Fernández-Llebrez,M. D. López-Avalos +4 more
TL;DR: Several evidences suggest that the SCO could be involved in the development of the PC, a large glycoprotein belonging to the thrombospondin superfamily that shares molecular domains with axonal pathfinding molecules.
