Journal ArticleDOI

Urolithin A induces mitophagy and prolongs lifespan in C. elegans and increases muscle function in rodents

TL;DR: Urolithin A is identified as a first-in-class natural compound that induces mitophagy both in vitro and in vivo following oral consumption and prevents the accumulation of dysfunctional mitochondria with age and extended lifespan in C. elegans and rodents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stress and memory: behavioral effects and neurobiological mechanisms.

TL;DR: High stress levels, whether intrinsic or extrinsic, tend to facilitate Pavlovian conditioning (in a linear-asymptotic manner), while being deleterious for spatial/explicit information processing (which with regard to intrinsic stress levels follows an inverted U-shape effect).
Journal ArticleDOI

Experience-dependent facilitating effect of corticosterone on spatial memory formation in the water maze

TL;DR: This work indicates a facilitating corticosterone action, during the post‐training period, on the neural mechanisms determining the strength of information storage under acute, physiological conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stress and the social brain: behavioural effects and neurobiological mechanisms

TL;DR: Research in animals and humans has revealed some of the structural, functional and molecular changes in the brain that underlie the effects of stress on social behaviour and will have implications both for the clinic and for society.
