Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a public health problem, with considerable social and economic burden. TBI is one of the most important causes of secondary epilepsy. TBI leads to post-traumatic epilepsy (PTE) most likely by means of direct damage to the brain parenchyma, which in turn leads to neurodegeneration and inflammatory responses, as well as molecular, structural and electrophysio…
Epilepsy is characterized by spontaneous recurrent seizures and is commonly associated with previous episode of traumatic brain injury or an episode of status epilepticus. Following the initial precipitating injury there is a silent period when plastic alterations occur on the nervous tissue culminating on recurrent seizures. Recently the neuroinflammation and glial role on epileptogenic …
Stress is a process associated to neuropsychophysiological reactions in the face of internal or external stimuli. Depending on its intensity, duration and frequency those stimuli might contribute for the development of several medical conditions such as hypertension, cardiovascular diseases and psychiatric problems to name a few. K12 teachers in Brazil have one of the most stressful jobs…
It is known that often intense neuronal firing triggers the synthesis of proteins that require specific activation of expression of immediate early genes, the best known of these being c-Fos. This gene is related to neuronal activation and is expressed when the animal is exposed to new situations. Several studies with mice and rats showed expression of c-fos in various regions of the cent…

The phylogenetic analysis of nervous system evolution across populations, both extant and extinct, offers insights into the interplay between environmental stimuli and the development of neural structures throughout evolutionary processes. While anatomical studies have contributed significantly to our understanding of species-specific traits, the elucidation of cellular and biochemical di…
