[HTML][HTML] Eating 'junk-food'produces rapid and long-lasting increases in NAc CP-AMPA receptors: implications for enhanced cue-induced motivation and food addiction

MF Oginsky, PB Goforth, CW Nobile… - …, 2016 - nature.com
Urges to eat are influenced by stimuli in the environment that are associated with food (food
cues). Obese people are more sensitive to food cues, reporting stronger craving and …

Insulin bidirectionally alters NAc glutamatergic transmission: interactions between insulin receptor activation, endogenous opioids, and glutamate release

TL Fetterly, MF Oginsky, AM Nieto… - Journal of …, 2021 - Soc Neuroscience
Human fMRI studies show that insulin influences brain activity in regions that mediate reward
and motivation, including the nucleus accumbens (NAc). Insulin receptors are expressed …

[HTML][HTML] Identification of a group of GABAergic neurons in the dorsomedial area of the locus coeruleus

X Jin, S Li, B Bondy, W Zhong, MF Oginsky, Y Wu… - PloS one, 2016 - journals.plos.org
The locus coeruleus (LC)-norepinephrine (NE) system in the brainstem plays a critical role
in a variety of behaviors is an important target of pharmacological intervention to several …

Enhanced cocaine-induced locomotor sensitization and intrinsic excitability of NAc medium spiny neurons in adult but not in adolescent rats susceptible to diet …

MF Oginsky, JD Maust, JT Corthell, CR Ferrario - Psychopharmacology, 2016 - Springer
Rationale Basal and diet-induced differences in mesolimbic function, particularly within the
nucleus accumbens (NAc), may contribute to human obesity; these differences may be more …

Eating “junk food” has opposite effects on intrinsic excitability of nucleus accumbens core neurons in obesity-susceptible versus-resistant rats

MF Oginsky, CR Ferrario - Journal of neurophysiology, 2019 - journals.physiology.org
The nucleus accumbens (NAc) plays critical roles in motivated behaviors, including food
seeking and feeding. Differences in NAc function contribute to overeating that drives obesity, …

Hyperexcitability of mesencephalic trigeminal neurons and reorganization of ion channel expression in a Rett syndrome model

MF Oginsky, N Cui, W Zhong… - Journal of Cellular …, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
People with Rett syndrome (RTT) have defects in motor function also seen in Mecp2‐null
mice. Motor function depends on not only central motor commands but also sensory feedback …

Alterations in the cholinergic system of brain stem neurons in a mouse model of Rett syndrome

MF Oginsky, N Cui, W Zhong… - American Journal of …, 2014 - journals.physiology.org
Rett syndrome is an autism-spectrum disorder resulting from mutations to the X-linked gene,
methyl-CpG binding protein 2 (MeCP2), which causes abnormalities in many systems. It is …

[HTML][HTML] Methyl CpG binding protein 2 gene disruption augments tonic currents of γ-aminobutyric acid receptors in locus coeruleus neurons: impact on neuronal …

W Zhong, N Cui, X Jin, MF Oginsky, Y Wu… - Journal of Biological …, 2015 - ASBMB
People with Rett syndrome and mouse models show autonomic dysfunction involving the
brain stem locus coeruleus (LC). Neurons in the LC of Mecp2-null mice are overly excited, …

CM Johnson, N Cui, W Zhong, MF Oginsky… - The journal of …, 2015 - Springer
… to their f variation and what percentage of mice develop RTT-like f variation, we studied the
distribution of f variation index against ages. Firstly, we analyzed the f variation distribution of …

D2 receptors receive paracrine neurotransmission and are consistently targeted to a subset of synaptic structures in an identified neuron of the crustacean …

MF Oginsky, EW Rodgers, MC Clark… - Journal of …, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
Dopamine (DA) modulates motor systems in phyla as diverse as nematodes and arthropods
up through chordates. A comparison of dopaminergic systems across a broad phylogenetic …
