BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Advanced Paternal Age (APA) has been shown to be a significant risk factor for neurodevelopmental psychiatric disorders, such as autism. We have recently shown that mice conceived by old fathers display behavioral abnormalities which resemble key diagnostic symptoms of human autism, including social deficits, communicative defects and repetitive behaviors. The aim of the present...
Transcriptome profiling of chronic social stress (CSS) effects on the brain revealed changes in expression of many genes responsible for alterations of structure and function of the central nervous system. However, there is still little information on dynamics of gene expression in the brain during chronic stress. The aim of the study was to investigate the time course of mouse hippocampal transcriptome...
Alcoholism is a complex disease with hereditary influence. To elucidate genetic contribution, microarrays were used to probe for differences in gene expression in limbic system structures in strains of rats selected for several generations for alcohol preference: Warsaw High Preferring (WHP) strain and Warsaw Low Preferring (WLP) strain. Microarray analyses of medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), hippocampus...
Phengaris alcon is a socially parasitic butterfly which is endangered or vulnerable in many European countries. Host-ant specificity of the butterfly was studied at nine sites throughout Poland. Except for one locality, we found P. alcon full-grown larvae and pupae exclusively in M. scabrinodis nests, which confirms that the presence of this ant species is vital for all populations to thrive. Therefore...
