#neurochemistry — Public Fediverse posts

OK, here's a one for the almost inevitable neurochemists out there in FediLand, if any of you might be so kind!

"I Was Watching"(!) this YouTube thing tonight from this young man, who was telling me that Stinging Nettles are a great treatment for (implied) minor to moderate Arthritis, bcs weird anti-inflammatory doohickey chemicals in the contents.

Does this sound even vaguely plausible?

Because I'm always happy when my knuckles shut-up and stop 'biting' at me, especially when I'm trying to sleep, but not keen to get stung just for someone else running a 'gullibility test' online!

Astrocytes, the star-shaped glial cells in the brain, actively shuttle lactate to neurons not only as an energy source but as a critical signaling molecule that modulates cellular chemistry and cements learning and memory.

It's not weird for some species to incorporate toxins from their diet as defenses: poison dart frogs, monarch butterflies, sea slugs, etc

But let's get weird and circuitous with it

#Nicotine was developed by plants to kill insects. As a quirk of #neurochemistry, humans use it addictively, so cigarette butts are everywhere

Birds have figured out they can use them in their nests to repel insect parasites

The original intention of nicotine

Weird!

Trying harder fails against biology. Adapting to new tasks is not a mindset issue. It requires your brain to physically deploy dopamine.

#Willpower #Neurochemistry #MentalHealth

Quick adapters share one biological advantage. Their brains flood with dopamine during sudden changes. This chemical surge enables a smooth pivot.

What happens in your brain when Cupid’s arrow strikes? What potent swirl of neurochemistry drives those fierce emotions? With neuroscientist Dr. Dean Burnett @Garwboy
and evolutionary anthropologist Dr. Anna Machin as their guides, Hannah and Dara investigate everything from the brain’s chemical fireworks during a crush to the evolutionary perks of love and bonding.

Does anybody have recommendations on introductory books about #neurochemistry for interested laypeople?

(I'm competent to do a keyword search on book topics, but I am not competent to tell whether the information is accurate and up-to-date.)

William Edgar Cohen (November 3, 1941 – May 20, 2014) was the president of #CNSProductionsInc and co-author of Uppers, Downers, All Arounders, a textbook on the #neurochemistry and #neuropharmacology of #psychoactiveDrugs. Additionally, he wrote and directed over two hundred teaching films and #documentaries. Cohen was born in #WashingtonDC, and raised in #NewYorkCity.

Hey everyone, I did some data science for a publication that just hit print today and they gave me a link to share! The article is behind a paywall, but the publisher is okay with unlimited access to this link? Kinda weird but this is the best way I can give access, so feel free to share with anyone you know who might be interested. Boosts are cool too.
