Strong fear memories resistant to modification are a key hallmark of trauma disorders such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). However, the neural mechanisms behind the encoding of these memories, and how these may differ in terms of strength, remain poorly understood. In this study, C57BL/6 mice were divided into four treatment groups (strong fear memory, weak fear memory, unpaired strong control, unpaired weak control) and underwent an auditory fear memory reconsolidation paradigm over the course of three days. Brains were stained using immunocytochemistry (ICC) for pERK expression in

This study delves into the complexities of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), a highly aggressive brain cancer, with a particular focus on understanding the role of CD9, a transmembrane protein involved in tumor cell invasion, apoptosis, and resistance to chemotherapy. GBM presents major challenges due to its rapid progression and resistance to conventional treatments. Using immunocytochemistry, CD9 is used as a marker to identify distinct cell populations within GBM cultures. Simultaneously, the study investigates CD9 expression patterns by flow cytometry, providing valuable insights into its pot
