How glioblastoma organoids are made shapes what they become. Fragment‐based cultures preserve extracellular matrix networks, cellular diversity, and primary tumor identity, whereas dissociation‐based cultures shift toward growth‐adapted states and simplified microenvironments. Abstract Patient‐derived tumor organoids are widely used in cancer research,

The immunological landscape of the area postrema in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders
Aquaporin‐4 antibody‐positive neuromyelitis spectrum disorder is characterized by large tissue destructive lesions in medulla, spinal cord, and optic nerves, with only partial recovery from clinical symptoms, and by lesions with very little tissue destruction and mostly complete recovery from clinical symptoms, as seen in the area postrema ...

Disease-specific aquaporin-4 antibodies (NMO-IgG) are the main effector of lesions in neuromyelitis optica (NMO) patients. Brain MRI lesions are detected in 60% of them, with 8% (almost infants) at sites of high aquaporin-4 expression. Patient 1: A fifty-year-old male with loss of vision in the right eye.

Aquaporin-4 is a membrane channel protein that is highly expressed in brain astrocytes and facilitates the transport of water molecules. It has been suggested that suppression of aquaporin-4 function may be an effective treatment for reducing cellular ...

Lung cancer brain metastasis is shaped by dynamic crosstalk among tumor cells, the blood–brain barrier, glial and immune cells, neurons, and metabolic niches. This review integrates these mechanisms with therapeutic resistance, translational models, CNS delivery, and multidisciplinary treatment strategies.

Investigating the Association between Aquaporin-4 and Osteoporosis in Patients with Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders [PDF]
Background and Aim: Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders (NMOSD) is an uncommon disorder of the central nervous system mainly affecting the optic nerves and spinal cord. NMOSD is associated with IgG antibody binding to aquaporin-4 (AQP4) that triggers

Summary Near‐infrared non‐ablative fractional lasers (NAFL) are established for skin rejuvenation and scar treatment and have attracted interest for their expanding therapeutic potential. This scoping review aims to revisit and reposition NAFL within a fluence‐dependent continuum of tissue modulation, based on evidence from 27 studies of lasers ...

Rethinking diabetic retinopathy: Homeostatic mechanisms for retinal clearance
In the healthy retina, balanced production and clearance of metabolic waste and fluid maintain retinal homeostasis and normal visual function. Diabetes disrupts this balance, increasing the accumulation of metabolic waste products, including advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and advanced lipoxidation end products (ALEs), while impairing waste and ...

Neuromyelitis optica (NMO) is an inflammatory demyelinating disease of central nervous system (CNS), characterized by severe optic neuritis (ON) and transverse myelitis (TM). Since the discovery of NMO-immunoglobulin G (NMO-IgG), the definition of NMO

Charting the course of Sjögren's disease: A historical analysis of scientific progress
Abstract Sjögren's disease (SjD) bears the name of the Swedish ophthalmologist Henrik Sjögren. His 1933 doctoral thesis on keratoconjunctivitis sicca ignited interest, yet much remains under debate. SjD is an autoimmune disorder that primarily affects the exocrine glands, particularly the salivary and lacrimal glands, leading to a dryness of the eyes ...
