Beyond the streetlight: a TREAT‐AD perspective on where to find new Alzheimer's targets
Abstract Despite extensive investments in Alzheimer's disease (AD) therapeutic development, progress toward effective interventions remains modest. The landscape of potential novel therapeutic strategies is rapidly growing, but prioritization, validation, and tools to advance targets to trial are lagging.

Antioxidant and Anti-Apoptotic Properties of Allopregnanolone in Protecting Dopaminergic Neurons from 6-OHDA-Induced Injury [PDF]
Dopaminergic neurodegeneration is associated with oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, neuroinflammation, and cell death. Allopregnanolone, a multifunctional neurosteroid, is involved in various biological processes within the body.

This review highlights the biphasic sipper model pioneered by Dr. Hank Samson's laboratory, which separates appetitive and consummatory behaviors in rodent ethanol self‐administration. Over two decades of research using this paradigm reveals that alcohol‐directed behaviors are dynamic, shaped by internal states, cues, and experience.

Prenatal Stress Alters Progestogens to Mediate Susceptibility to Sex-Typical, Stress-Sensitive Disorders, such as Drug Abuse: A Review [PDF]
Maternal-offspring interactions begin prior to birth. Experiences of the mother during gestation play a powerful role in determining the developmental programming of the central nervous system. In particular, stress during gestation alters developmental
