Infant neurobehavior was assessed with the NICU Network Neurobehavioral Scale , a measures that strongly correlates with scores on the 12 and 24 month Bayley exam in neonates born <37 weeks’ gestation. We previously reported preliminary data from the IDEAL study demonstrating that exposed neonates have decreased arousal, increased stress, and poor quality of movement…

This treatment attenuated the hyperactivity of both DAT KD mice and mice administered GBR12909
Infrared beams attached along all four walls and in each hole detect and record holepokes, rearing, and the location of the animal. Using these data, the BPM is able to quantify activity, exploration, and the structural patterns of motor activity of rodents . Previously, the rat and mouse BPM systems have proven useful to differentiate…
The prefrontal cortex is one of the last brain regions to complete its maturation
The suppression of gaping by URB was reversed by pre-treatment with the CB1 antagonist/inverse agonist, SR141716A, suggesting a CB1 mechanism of action. URB also interfered with the establishment of conditioned gaping when administrated before each pairing of the contextual stimuli with LiCl. This finding was consistent with that recently reported by Cross-Mellor et al. demonstrating that…
MGL is the major degradative enzyme of 2-AG in the mouse brain
Immunofluorescence staining for MGL using two different antibodies recognizing independent epitopes of the MGL protein resulted in a comparable distribution pattern, although the general density of staining was stronger for the antibody “MGL-mid” in human hippocampal sections . Notably, as with the DGL-α-immunostaining, the distribution pattern of MGL mirrored the laminar structure of the hippocampal formation…
The molecular cloning of rat brain MGL has recently allowed the testing of this hypothesis
Similarly, infreshly dissected hippocampal slices, electrical stimulation of the Schaffer collaterals, a glutama tergic fiber tract that connects neurons in the CA3 and CA1 fields, causes a Ca2+-dependent increase in 2-AG content . This stimulation has no effect on the levels of non-cannabinoid mono acylglycerols, such as 1-palmitoylglycerol, which indicates that 2-AG formation may not be attributed to a broad,…
Substance use is a public health concern because it contributes to disease and mortality
These results provide strong support for future research that evaluates the role of movement therapies such as tai chi in reducing risk of falls, mobility-related disability and frailty occurrence in older PLWH. This study has several strengths. This is the first study, to our knowledge, employing a multi-component behavioral intervention to address both chronic pain…
Vertical Grow Racks for Cannabis & Microgreen Grow
Vertical grow racks are indeed commonly used for cannabis and microgreen cultivation in vertical farming setups. Here are some considerations specific to these crops: Cannabis: Microgreens: Vertical grow racks offer the benefits of maximizing space, providing controlled environments, and facilitating efficient management and harvesting in both cannabis and microgreen cultivation. However, it’s important to consider…
How Do Indoor Vertical Farms Get Their Seed
Indoor vertical farms typically obtain their seeds from various sources. Here are some common methods for acquiring seeds for indoor vertical farming: When selecting seeds for indoor vertical farming, growers consider factors such as crop characteristics, growth habits, disease resistance, taste, and market demand. They also evaluate the compatibility of specific seed varieties with the…
Can You Grow Marijuanna With Vertical Farming
Yes, marijuana can be grown using vertical farming methods. Vertical farming offers several advantages for cultivating marijuana, such as maximizing space utilization, increasing yield potential, and providing precise control over environmental conditions. Here are some key considerations for growing marijuana with vertical farming: It’s important to note that the cultivation of marijuana is subject to…
Commercial Cannabis Cultivation Rooms
Designing commercial cannabis cultivation rooms requires careful planning and attention to various factors to ensure a successful and efficient operation. Here are the key considerations for designing commercial cannabis cultivation rooms: Remember to consult with professionals experienced in cannabis cultivation facility design and comply with local laws and regulations governing the cannabis industry.
