Moreover various antiepileptics have adverse cognitive impact with other side effect. Thus, need for new antiepileptic drugs still remains challenge. However, many of the natural components ...

Difference of brain-derived neurotrophic factor expression and pyramid cell count during mastication of food with varying hardness

J. appl. oral sci; 27 (), 2019
Abstract Previous studies suggested that mastication activity can affect learning and memory function. However, most were focused on mastication impaired models by providing long-term soft diet. The effects of chewing food with various hardness, especially during the growth period, remain unknown. Objec...
