Background: Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glutathione (GSH) play a significant role in the functioning of a healthy brain and can both be quantified using magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). Several small-scale studies have suggested MRS meas... Read More about Magnetic resonance spectroscopy and the menstrual cycle: a multi-centre assessment of menstrual cycle effects on GABA & GSH.

Neuro-behavioral impact of Tourette-related striatal disinhibition in rats (2025)
Preprint / Working Paper
Loayza, J., Taylor, C., Renstrom, J., Grasmeder Allen, R., Jackson, S., & Bast, T. (2025). Neuro-behavioral impact of Tourette-related striatal disinhibition in rats

Tourette syndrome has been linked to reduced GABAergic inhibition, so called neural disinhibition, in the dorsal striatum. Dorsal-striatal neural disinhibition in animal models, caused by local microinfusion of GABA-A-receptor antagonists, produces s...

Investigating Neurometabolite Changes in Response to Median Nerve Stimulation (2025)
Journal Article
Houlgreave, M. S., Dyke, K., Berrington, A., & Jackson, S. R. (2025). Investigating Neurometabolite Changes in Response to Median Nerve Stimulation. Brain and Behavior, 15(1), Article e70250. https://doi.org/10.1002/brb3.70250

Background: Rhythmic median nerve stimulation (MNS) at 10Hz has been shown to cause a substantial reduction in tic frequency in individuals with Tourette syndrome. The mechanism of action is currently unknown but is hypothesized to involve entrainmen... Read More about Investigating Neurometabolite Changes in Response to Median Nerve Stimulation.
