A widespread internal brain state for fentanyl withdrawal

Karim Abdelaal, Kathryn K. Walder-Christensen, Cameron Blount, Kellie Williford, marisella Adams-Grimaldi, Stephen D. Mague, David Carlson, Kafui Dzirasa

A multisite LFP network (EN-Withdrawal), found with supervised dCSFA-NMF in fentanyl-withdrawing mice, classifies morphine withdrawal, tracks behavioral severity, and its rise predicts fentanyl self-administration escalation in experienced mice.

Prenatal Environmental Stressors Impair Postnatal Microglia Function and Adult Behavior in Males

Carina L. Block, Oznur Eroglu, Stephen D. Mague, Caroline J. W. Smith, Alexis M. Ceasrine, Chaichontat Sriworarat, Cameron Blount, Kathleen A. Beben, Karen E. Malacon, Nkemdilim Ndubuizu, Austin Talbot, Neil M. Gallagher, Young Chan Jo, Timothy Nyangacha, David Carlson, , Staci D. Bilbo

This study shows that prenatal exposure to environmental toxins and stress impairs microglial function and leads to behavioral issues in male mice.
