Thinking Big About Arbor Assays’ Role on World Brain Day

Ever wondered how researchers study brain health and disease? World Brain Day is a great time to dive into recent breakthroughs. These studies, using Arbor Assays kits, reveal fascinating insights into brain function and pathology. Let’s look at some key findings and how our kits helped make them possible. 

1. Neurotrauma Severity Scale: Insights from Mouse Models 

Published: 2022 | Species: Mouse | Sample: Blood | Product: Corticosterone Multi-Format ELISA Kits 


Researchers developed a scale to measure brain injury severity in mice. By tracking corticosterone levels, they linked hormonal changes to injury severity. Our Corticosterone Multi-Format ELISA Kits provided accurate biomarker measurements, crucial for this study.

2. Melatonin Nanocapsules for Post-Ischemic Brain Protection 

Published: 2022 | Species: Rat | Sample: Supernatant | Product: Nitric Oxide (NO) Colorimetric Detection Kit 


This study explored using melatonin nanocapsules to protect the brain after an ischemic event. Researchers measured nitric oxide levels to gauge oxidative stress. To ensure precise measurements, the team utilized the Nitric Oxide (NO) Colorimetric Detection Kit, highlighting the treatment’s effectiveness.

3. Stress Hormones and Gene Expression in Tree Swallows 

Published: 2023 | Species: Bird | Sample: Brain | Product: Corticosterone Multi-Format ELISA Kits 
 

This research looked at how stress hormones affect gene expression in female tree swallows. By examining glucocorticoid levels with the help of the Corticosterone Multi-Format ELISA kits, scientists could see the impact on brain function.

4. Genomic Imprinting and Brain-Adrenal Axis Functions in Mice 

Published: 2022 | Species: Mouse | Sample: Urine | Product: Urinary Creatinine Detection Kits 
 

Researchers studied how noncanonical genomic imprinting affects the brain-adrenal axis and natural foraging in mice. They used our Urinary Creatinine Detection Kits to normalize samples, providing accurate results for this intriguing study.

5. Impact of Corticosterone on Mouse Motor Coordination 

Published: 2017 | Species: Mouse | Sample: Serum | Product: Corticosterone Multi-Format ELISA Kits 
 

The effects of repeated corticosterone injections on stress hormone receptor expression and motor coordination in mice was studied by researchers in France. By measuring serum corticosterone levels with the corticosterone Multi-Format ELISA Kits, researchers identified changes in brain function.

6. Glucose Metabolism in Schizophrenia 

Published: 2016 | Species: Human | Sample: Tissue Lysate/Homogenate | Product: Glucose Colorimetric Detection Kit 
 

Focusing on metabolic disturbances in schizophrenia, researchers found impaired glucose metabolism in the striatum of postmortem brain samples. Providing precise glucose measurements, the Glucose Colorimetric Detection Kit offered crucial insights into the disease.
