Variation and prognostic potential of the gut antibiotic resistome in the FINRISK 2002 cohort by Katariina Pärnänen, Matti O. Ruuskanen, Guilhem Sommeria-Klein, Ville Laitinen, Pyry Kantanen, Guillaume Méric, Camila Gazolla Volpiano, Michael Inouye, Rob Knight, Veikko Salomaa, Aki S. Havulinna, Teemu Niiranen, Leo Lahti

“…Resistance was linked not only to prior use of antibiotics, as anticipated, but also to frequent consumption of fresh vegetables and poultry, two food groups previously reported to contain antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Interestingly, resistance was not linked to the consumption of high-fat and high-sugar foods, but was consistently higher in females and urban high-income individuals, who currently have generally lower mortality rates. …”

Dopamine modulates persistent synaptic activity and enhances the signal-to-noise ratio in the prefrontal cortex. by Sven Kroener, L Judson Chandler, Paul E M Phillips, Jeremy K Seamans

“…When the background DA was eliminated by depleting DA with reserpine and alpha-methyl-p-tyrosine, or by preparing corticolimbic co-cultures without the VTA slice, Up-states could be enhanced by low concentrations (0.1-1 microM) of DA that had no effect in the VTA containing cultures. Finally, in spite of the concentration-dependent effects on Up-states, exogenous DA at all but the lowest concentrations increased intracellular current-pulse evoked firing in all cultures underlining the complexity of DA's effects in an active network.…”
