Governance hurdles for expansion of low trophic mariculture production in Sweden.

The study examines the governance of low trophic species mariculture (LTM) using Sweden as a case study. LTM, involving species such as seaweeds and mollusks, offers ecosystem services and nutritious foods. Despite its potential to contribute to blue growth and Sustainable Development Goals, LTM development in the EU and OECD countries has stagnated. A framework for mapping governance elements (institutions, structures, and processes) and analyzing governance objective (effective, equitable, responsive, and robust) was combined with surveys addressed to the private entrepreneurs in the sector. Analysis reveals ineffective institutions due to lack of updated legislation and guidance, resulting in ambiguous interpretations. Governance structures include multiple decision-making bodies without a clear coordination agency. Licensing processes were lengthy and costly for the private entrepreneurs, and the outcomes were uncertain. To support Sweden's blue bioeconomy, LTM governance requires policy integration, clearer direction, coordinated decision-making, and mechanisms for conflict resolution and learning.

AlphaFold2 assists in providing novel mechanistic insights into the interactions among the LUBAC subunits.

The linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex (LUBAC) is the only known E3 ligase complex in which the ubiquitin-like (UBL) domains of SHARPIN and HOIL-1L interact with HOIP to determine the structural stability of LUBAC. The interactions between subunits within LUBAC have been a topic of extensive research. However, the impact of the LTM motif on the interaction between the UBL domains of SHARPIN and HOIL-1L with HOIP remains unclear. Here, we discover that the absence of the LTM motif in the AlphaFold2-predicted LUBAC structure alters the HOIP-UBA structure. We employ GeoPPI to calculate the changes in binding free energy (ΔG) caused by single-point mutations between subunits, simulating their protein-protein interactions. The results reveal that the presence of the LTM motif decreases the interaction between the UBL domains of SHARPIN and HOIL-1L with HOIP, leading to a decrease in the structural stability of LUBAC. Furthermore, using the AlphaFold2-predicted results, we find that HOIP (629‒695) and HOIP-UBA bind to both sides of HOIL-1L-UBL, respectively. The experiments of Gromacs molecular dynamics simulations, SPR and ITC demonstrate that the elongated domain formed by HOIP (629‒695) and HOIP-UBA, hereafter referred to as the HOIP (466‒695) structure, interacts with HOIL-1L-UBL to form a structurally stable complex. These findings illustrate the collaborative interaction between HOIP-UBA and HOIP (629‒695) with HOIL-1L-UBL, which influences the structural stability of LUBAC.

TrkB-BDNF Signalling and Arc/Arg3.1 Immediate Early Genes in the Anterior Cingulate Cortex and Hippocampus: Insights into Novel Memory Milestones Through Behavioural Tagging.

In recent years, there has been a surge in interest in investigating the mechanisms underlying memory consolidation. However, our understanding of the behavioural tagging (BT) model and its establishment in diverse brain regions remains limited. This study elucidates the contributions of the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) and hippocampus in the formation of long-term memory (LTM) employing behaviour tagging as a model for studying the underlying mechanism of LTM formation in rats. Existing knowledge highlights a protein synthesis-dependent phase as imperative for LTM. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) stands as a pivotal plasticity-related protein (PRP) in mediating molecular alterations crucial for long-term synaptic plasticity and memory consolidation. Our study offers evidence suggesting that tropomyosin receptor kinase B (TrkB), the receptor of BDNF, may act as a combined "behavioural tag/PRP". Interfering with the expression of these molecules resulted in impaired LTM after 24 h. Furthermore, augmenting BDNF expression led to an elevation in Arc protein levels in both the ACC and hippocampus regions. Introducing novelty around weak inhibitory avoidance (IA) training resulted in heightened step-down latencies and expression of these molecules, respectively. We also demonstrate that the increase in Arc expression relies on BDNF synthesis, which is vital for the memory consolidation process. Additionally, inhibiting BDNF using an anti-BDNF function-blocking antibody impacted Arc expression in both the ACC and hippocampus regions, disrupting the transformations from labile to robust memory. These findings mark the initial identification of a "behavioural tag/PRP" combination and underscore the involvement of the TrkB-BDNF-Arc cascade in the behavioural tagging model of learning and memory.

N1-Acetyl-5-methoxykynuramine, which decreases in the hippocampus with aging, improves long-term memory via CaMKII/CREB phosphorylation.

Melatonin is a molecule ubiquitous in nature and involved in several physiological functions. In the brain, melatonin is converted to N1-acetyl-N2-formyl-5-methoxykynuramine (AFMK) and then to N1-acetyl-5-methoxykynuramine (AMK), which has been reported to strongly enhance long-term object memory formation. However, the synthesis of AMK in brain tissues and the underlying mechanisms regarding memory formation remain largely unknown. In the present study, young and old individuals from a melatonin-producing strain, C3H/He mice, were employed. The amount of AMK in the pineal gland and plasma was very low compared with those of melatonin at night; conversely, in the hippocampus, the amount of AMK was higher than that of melatonin. Indoleamine 2, 3-dioxygenase (Ido) mRNA was expressed in multiple brain tissues, whereas tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (Tdo) mRNA was expressed only in the hippocampus, and its lysate had melatonin to AFMK conversion activity, which was blocked by the TDO inhibitor. The expression levels of phosphorylated cAMP response element binding protein (CREB) and PSD-95 in whole hippocampal tissue were significantly increased with AMK treatment. Before increasing in the whole tissue, CREB phosphorylation was significantly enhanced in the nuclear fraction. In the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis, we found that downregulated genes in hippocampus of old C3H/He mice were more enriched for long-term potentiation (LTP) pathway. Gene set enrichment analysis showed that LTP and neuroactive receptor interaction gene sets were enriched in hippocampus of old mice. In addition, Ido1 and Tdo mRNA expression was significantly decreased in the hippocampus of old mice compared with young mice, and the decrease in Tdo mRNA was more pronounced than Ido1. Furthermore, there was a higher decrease in AMK levels, which was less than 1/10 that of young mice, than in melatonin levels in the hippocampus of old mice. In conclusion, we first demonstrated the Tdo-related melatonin to AMK metabolism in the hippocampus and suggest a novel mechanism of AMK involved in LTP and memory formation. These results support AMK as a potential therapeutic agent to prevent memory decline.

Mechanistic insights into the homo-dimerization of HOIL-1L and SHARPIN.

HOIL-1L and SHARPIN are two essential regulatory subunits of the linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex (LUBAC), which is the only known E3 ligase complex generating linear ubiquitin chains. In addition to their LUBAC-dependent functions, HOIL-1L and SHARPIN alone play crucial roles in many LUBAC-independent cellular processes. Importantly, deficiency of HOIL-1L or SHARPIN leads to severe disorders in humans or mice. However, the mechanistic bases underlying the multi-functions of HOIL-1L and SHARPIN are still largely unknown. Here, we uncover that HOIL-1L and SHARPIN alone can form homo-dimers through their LTM motifs. We solve two crystal structures of the dimeric LTM motifs of HOIL-1L and SHARPIN, which not only elucidate the detailed molecular mechanism underpinning the dimer formations of HOIL-1L and SHARPIN, but also reveal a general mode shared by the LTM motifs of HOIL-1L and SHARPIN for forming homo-dimer or hetero-dimer. Furthermore, we elucidate that the polyglucosan body myopathy-associated HOIL-1L A18P mutation disturbs the structural folding of HOIL-1L LTM, and disrupts the dimer formation of HOIL-1L. In summary, our study provides mechanistic insights into the homo-dimerization of HOIL-1L and SHARPIN mediated by their LTM motifs, and expands our understandings of the multi-functions of HOIL-1L and SHARPIN as well as the etiology of relevant human disease caused by defective HOIL-1L.

LUBAC-mediated linear ubiquitination in tissue homeostasis and disease.

In addition to its role in the ubiquitin-proteasome system of protein degradation, polyubiquitination is involved in the regulation of intracellular events. Depending on the type of ubiquitin-ubiquitin linkage used, polyubiquitin can assume several types of structures. The spatiotemporal dynamics of polyubiquitin involve multiple adaptor proteins and induce different downstream outputs. Linear ubiquitination, in which the N-terminal methionine on the acceptor ubiquitin serves as the site for ubiquitin-ubiquitin conjugation, is a rare and atypical type of polyubiquitin modification. The production of linear ubiquitin chains is dependent on various external inflammatory stimuli and leads to the transient activation of the downstream NF-κB signalling pathway. This in turn suppresses extrinsic programmed cell death signals and protects cells from activation-induced cell death under inflammatory conditions. Recent evidence has revealed the role of linear ubiquitination in various biological processes under both physiological and pathological conditions. This led us to propose that linear ubiquitination may be pivotal in the 'inflammatory adaptation' of cells, and consequently in tissue homeostasis and inflammatory disease. In this review, we focused on the physiological and pathophysiological roles of linear ubiquitination in vivo in response to a changing inflammatory microenvironment.

Concurrent recordings of slow DC-potentials and epileptiform discharges: Novel EEG amplifier and signal processing techniques.

Ionic currents within the brain generate voltage oscillations. These bioelectrical activities include ultra-low frequency electroencephalograms (DC-EEG, frequency less than 0.1 Hz) and conventional clinical electroencephalograms (AC-EEG, 0.5-70 Hz). Although AC-EEG is commonly used for diagnosing epilepsy, recent studies indicate that DC-EEG is an essential frequency component of EEG and can provide valuable information for analyzing epileptiform discharges. During conventional EEG recordings, DC-EEG is censored by applying high-pass filtering to i) obliterate slow-wave artifacts, ii) eliminate the bioelectrodes' half-cell potential asymmetrical changes in ultralow-low frequency, and iii) prevent instrument saturation. Spreading depression (SD), which is the most prolonged fluctuation in DC-EEG, may be associated with epileptiform discharges. However, recording of SD signals from the scalp's surface can be challenging due to the filtering effect and non-neuronal slow shift potentials. In this study, we describe a novel technique to extend the frequency bandwidth of surface EEG to record SD signals. The method includes novel instrumentation, appropriate bioelectrodes, and efficient signal-processing techniques. To evaluate the accuracy of our approach, we performed a simultaneous surface recording of DC- and AC-EEG from epileptic patients during long-term video EEG monitoring, which provide a promising tool for diagnosis of epilepsy.

Reconfigurable Low-Power TiO2 Memristor for Integration of Artificial Synapse and Nociceptor.

Bio-mimetic advanced electronic systems are emerging rapidly, engrossing their applications in neuromorphic computing, humanoid robotics, tactile sensors, and so forth. The biological synaptic and nociceptive functions are governed by intricate neurotransmitter dynamics that involve both short-term and long-term plasticity. To emulate the neuronal dynamics in an electronic device, an Ag/TiO2/Pt/SiO2/Si memristor is fabricated, exhibiting compliance current controlled reversible transition of volatile switching (VS) and non-volatile switching (NVS). The origin of the VS and NVS depends on the diameter of the conducting filament, which is explained using a field-induced nucleation theory and validated by temporal current response measurements. The switching delay of the device is used to determine the characteristic nociceptive behaviors such as threshold, relaxation, inadaptation, allodynia, and hyperalgesia. The short-term and long-term retention loss attributed to the VS and NVS, respectively, is used to emulate short-term memory and long-term memory of the biological brain in a single device. More importantly, synergistically modulating the VS-NVS transition, the complex spike rate-dependent (SRDP) and spike time-dependent plasticity (STDP) with a weight change of up to 600% is demonstrated in the same device, which is the highest reported so far for TiO2 memristors. Furthermore, the device exhibits very low power consumption, ∼3.76 pJ/spike, and can imitate synaptic and nociceptive functions. The consolidation of complex nociceptive and synaptic behavior in a single memristor facilitates low-power integration of scalable intelligent sensors and neuromorphic devices.

Characterization of noise in long-term ECG monitoring with machine learning based on clinical criteria.

Noise and artifacts affect strongly the quality of the electrocardiogram (ECG) in long-term ECG monitoring (LTM), making some of its parts impractical for diagnosis. The clinical severity of noise defines a qualitative quality score according to the manner clinicians make the interpretation of the ECG, in contrast to assess noise from a quantitative standpoint. So clinical noise refers to a scale of different levels of qualitative severity of noise which aims at elucidating which ECG fragments are valid to achieve diagnosis from a clinical point of view, unlike the traditional approach, which assesses noise in terms of quantitative severity. This work proposes the use of machine learning (ML) techniques to categorize different qualitative noise severity using a database annotated according to a clinical noise taxonomy as gold standard. A comparative study is carried out using five representative ML methods, namely, K neareast neighbors, decision trees, support vector machine, single-layer perceptron, and random forest. The models are fed by signal quality indexes characterizing the waveform in time and frequency domains, as well as from a statistical viewpoint, to distinguish between clinically valid ECG segments from invalid ones. A solid methodology to prevent overfitting to both the dataset and the patient is developed, taking into account balance of classes, patient separation, and patient rotation in the test set. All the proposed learning systems have demonstrated good classification performance, attaining a recall, precision, and F1 score up to 0.78, 0.80, and 0.77, respectively, in the test set by a single-layer perceptron approach. These systems provide a classification solution for assessing the clinical quality of the ECG taken from LTM recordings.

Contributions of extracellular-signal regulated kinase 1/2 activity to the memory trace.

The ability to learn from experience and consequently adapt our behavior is one of the most fundamental capacities enabled by complex and plastic nervous systems. Next to cellular and systems-level changes, learning and memory formation crucially depends on molecular signaling mechanisms. In particular, the extracellular-signal regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK), historically studied in the context of tumor growth and proliferation, has been shown to affect synaptic transmission, regulation of neuronal gene expression and protein synthesis leading to structural synaptic changes. However, to what extent the effects of ERK are specifically related to memory formation and stabilization, or merely the result of general neuronal activation, remains unknown. Here, we review the signals leading to ERK activation in the nervous system, the subcellular ERK targets associated with learning-related plasticity, and how neurons with activated ERK signaling may contribute to the formation of the memory trace.

Biomechanics in ascending aortic aneurysms correlate with tissue composition and strength.

Objective: This study correlates low strain tangential modulus (LTM) and transition zone onset (TZo) stress, biomechanical parameters that occur within the physiological range of stress seen in vivo, with tissue strength and histopathologic changes in aneurysmal ascending aortic tissue. Method: Ascending aortic aneurysm tissue samples were collected from 41 patients undergoing elective resection. Samples were subjected to planar biaxial testing to quantify LTM and TZo. These were then correlated with strength assessed from uniaxial testing and with histopathologic quantification of pathologic derangements in elastin, collagen, and proteoglycan (PG). Results: Decreased LTM and TZo were correlated with reduced strength (P < .05), PG content (P < .05), and elastin content (P < .05). Reduced TZo also was correlated with increased elastin fragmentation (P < .05). Conclusions: LTM and TZo are correlated with common biomechanical and histopathologic alterations in ascending aortic aneurysm tissue that are thought to relate to the risk of acute aortic syndromes. LTM and TZo are measured under conditions approximating in vivo physiology and have the potential to be obtained noninvasively using medical imaging techniques. Therefore, they represent parameters that warrant future study as potential contributors to our growing knowledge of pathophysiology, disease progression, and risk stratification of aortic disease.

Validation of At-Home Application of a Digital Cognitive Screener for Older Adults.

Standardized neuropsychological assessments of older adults are important for both clinical diagnosis and biobehavioral research. Over decades, in-person testing has been the basis for population normative values that rank cognitive performance by demographic status. Most recently, digital tools have enabled remote data collection for cognitive measures, which offers the significant promise to extend the basis for normative values to be more inclusive of a larger cross section of the older population. We developed a Remote Characterization Module (RCM), using a speech-to-text interface, as a novel digital tool to administer an at-home, 25-min cognitive screener that mimics eight standardized neuropsychological measures. Forty cognitively healthy participants were recruited from a longitudinal aging research cohort, and they performed the same measures of memory, attention, verbal fluency and set-shifting in both in-clinic paper-and-pencil (PAP) and at-home RCM versions. The results showed small differences, if any, for how participants performed on in-person and remote versions in five of eight tasks. Critically, robust correlations between their PAP and RCM scores across participants support the finding that remote, digital testing can provide a reliable assessment tool for rapid and remote screening of healthy older adults' cognitive performance in several key domains. The implications for digital cognitive screeners are discussed.

Tailoring Nanoadsorbent Surfaces: Separation of Rare Earths and Late Transition Metals in Recycling of Magnet Materials.

Novel silica-based adsorbents were synthesized by grafting the surface of SiO2 nanoparticles with amine and sulfur containing functional groups. Produced nanomaterials were characterized by SEM-EDS, AFM, FTIR, TGA and tested for adsorption and separation of Rare Earth Elements (REE) (Nd3+ and Sm3+) and Late Transition Metals (LTM) (Ni2+ and Co2+) in single and mixed solutions. The adsorption equilibrium data analyzed and fitted well to Langmuir isotherm model revealing monolayer adsorption process on homogeneously functionalized silica nanoparticles (NPs). All organo-silicas showed high adsorption capacities ranging between 0.5 and 1.8 mmol/g, depending on the function and the target metal ion. Most of these ligands demonstrated higher affinity towards LTM, related to the nature of the functional groups and their arrangement on the surface of nanoadsorbent.

REM Sleep Deprivation Impairs Learning and Memory by Decreasing Brain O-GlcNAc Cycling in Mouse.

Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is implicated learning and memory (L/M) functions and hippocampal long-term potentiation (LTP). Here, we demonstrate that REM sleep deprivation (REMSD)-induced impairment of contextual fear memory in mouse is linked to a reduction in hexosamine biosynthetic pathway (HBP)/O-GlcNAc flux in mouse brain. In mice exposed to REMSD, O-GlcNAcylation, and O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) were downregulated while O-GlcNAcase was upregulated compared to control mouse brain. Foot shock fear conditioning (FC) induced activation of protein kinase A (PKA) and cAMP response element binding protein (CREB), which were significantly inhibited in brains of the REMSD group. Intriguingly, REMSD-induced defects in L/M functions and FC-induced PKA/CREB activation were restored upon increasing O-GlcNAc cycling with glucosamine (GlcN) or Thiamet G. Furthermore, Thiamet G restored the REMSD-induced decrease in dendritic spine density. Suppression of O-GlcNAcylation by the glutamine fructose-6-phosphate amidotransferase (GFAT) inhibitor, 6-diazo-5-oxo-L-norleucine (DON), or OGT inhibitor, OSMI-1, impaired memory function, and inhibited FC-induced PKA/CREB activation. DON additionally reduced the amplitude of baseline field excitatory postsynaptic potential (fEPSP) and magnitude of long-term potentiation (LTP) in normal mouse hippocampal slices. To our knowledge, this is the first study to provide comprehensive evidence of dynamic O-GlcNAcylation changes during the L/M process in mice and defects in this pathway in the brain of REM sleep-deprived mice. Our collective results highlight HBP/O-GlcNAc cycling as a novel molecular link between sleep and cognitive function.

The temperature sensitivity of memory formation and persistence is altered by cold acclimation in a pond snail.

There are reports on the inability of inbred, laboratory-reared Lymnaea stagnalis to perform feeding and aerial respiration in the cold. It has also been suggested that laboratory-bred snails have an inability to perform aerial respiration in winter months in the laboratory. Here, we used an inbred, laboratory-reared strain of Lymnaea (the S-strain) to demonstrate that the snails are capable of performing those behaviours in a cold (4°C) environment after a 2 day acclimation period. In addition, the inbred snails were able to perform aerial respiration during winter months at room temperature (20°C) in the laboratory. The persistence of long-term memory (LTM) was extended for at least 4 weeks by placing S-strain snails into a 4°C environment following training. Typically, the cold block (CB) procedure (1 h at 4°C) immediately after a training session blocks LTM formation in the S-strain but not in a freshly collected strain. Four weeks at 4°C transformed the S-strain phenotype into one resisting the CB procedure. Thus, with a 4 week cold spell snails gain a resistance to the CB procedure, and that would explain why freshly collected snails are resistant to the procedure. However, we found that F1 progeny of a freshly collected strain reared in the laboratory were resistant to the CB procedure. This suggests that an unknown selection resulted in the S-strain being susceptible to the CB procedure.

Repeated hypoxia exposure induces cognitive dysfunction, brain inflammation, and amyloidß/p-Tau accumulation through reduced brain O-GlcNAcylation in zebrafish.

Repetitive hypoxia (RH) exposure affects the initiation and progression of cognitive dysfunction, but little is known about the mechanisms of hypoxic brain damage. In this study, we show that sublethal RH increased anxiety, impaired learning and memory (L/M), and triggered downregulation of brain levels of glucose and several glucose metabolites in zebrafish, and that supplementation of glucose or glucosamine (GlcN) restored RH-induced L/M impairment. Fear conditioning (FC)-induced brain activation of and PKA/CREB signaling was abrogated by RH, and this effect was reversed by GlcN supplementation. RH was associated with decreased brain O-GlcNAcylation and an increased O-GlcNAcase (OGA) level. RH increased brain inflammation and p-Tau and amyloid ß accumulation, and these effects were suppressed by GlcN. Our observations collectively suggest that changes in O-GlcNAc flux during hypoxic exposure could be an important causal factor for neurodegeneration, and that supplementation of the HBP/O-GlcNAc flux may be a potential novel therapeutic or preventive target for addressing hypoxic brain damage.

Neuropsin-dependent and -independent behavioral tagging.

AIM: The consolidation of short-term memories into long-term memories is promoted by associations with novel environmental stimuli. This phenomenon is known as behavioral tagging. Neuropsin, a plasticity-related serine protease in the hippocampus and amygdala, is involved in memory formation. This study investigated how neuropsin affects associative long-term memory. METHODS: Short-term and long-term memory were assessed in control and neuropsin-deficient mice by investigating their performance in inhibitory avoidance and spatial object recognition tasks. The effect of exposure to novelty on the conversion of short-term memory to associative long-term memory was also examined. RESULTS: The consolidation of task-related short-term memories into long-term memories was facilitated by exposing the animals to a novel environment 1 hour before training. However, this long-term memory conversion was impaired in neuropsin-deficient mice performing the inhibitory avoidance task but not the spatial object recognition task. CONCLUSION: Behavioral tagging occurs via neuropsin-dependent and neuropsin-independent processes for different behavioral tasks.

De novo proteomic methods for examining the molecular mechanisms underpinning long-term memory.

Memory formation is a fundamental function of the nervous system that enables the experience-based adaptation of behaviour. The formation, recall and updating of long-term memory (LTM) requires new protein synthesis through its direct involvement in neuronal processes, such as long-term potentiation (LTP), long-term depression (LTD) and synaptic scaling. We discuss the advantages and limitations of several emerging techniques which enable the tagging of newly synthesised proteins, including stable isotope labelling with amino acids in cell culture (SILAC), puromycin labelling, and non-canonical amino acid (NCAA) labelling. We further present how these methods allow for the identification and visualisation of proteins which are newly synthesised during different stages of memory formation. These emerging techniques will continue to expand our understanding of how memories are formed, consolidated and retrieved.

Cytoplasmic Polyadenylation Element Binding Proteins CPEB1 and CPEB3 Regulate the Translation of FosB and Are Required for Maintaining Addiction-Like Behaviors Induced by Cocaine.

A recurrent and devastating feature of addiction to a drug of abuse is its persistence, which is mediated by maladaptive long-term memories of the highly pleasurable experience initially associated with the consumption of the drug. We have recently found that members of the CPEB family of proteins (Cytoplasmic Polyadenylation Element-Binding Proteins) are involved in the maintenance of spatial memory. However, their possible role in the maintenance of memories that sustain addictive behavior has yet to be explored. Little is known about any of the mechanisms for maintaining memories for addictive behavior. To address the mechanisms whereby addictive behavior is maintained over time, we utilized a conditional transgenic mouse model expressing a dominant-negative version of CPEB1 that abolishes the activity in the forebrain of two of the four CPEB isoforms (CPEB1 and CPEB3). We found that, following cocaine administration, these dominant-negative (DN) CPEB mice showed a significant decrease, when compared to wild type (WT) mice, in both locomotor sensitizations and conditioned place preference (CPP), two indices of addictive behavior. Supporting these behavioral results, we also found a difference between WT and DN-CPEB1-3 mice in the cocaine-induced synaptic depression in the core of the Nucleus Accumbens (NAc). Finally, we found that (1) CPEB is reduced in transgenic mice following cocaine injections and that (2) FosB, known for its contribution to establishing the addictive phenotype, when its expression in the striatum is increased by drug administration, is a novel target of CPEBs molecules. Thus, our study highlights how CPEB1 and CPEB3 act on target mRNAs to build the neuroadaptative implicit memory responses that lead to the development of the cocaine addictive phenotypes in mammals.
