Chronic stress may disrupt covariant fluctuations of vitamin D and cortisol plasma levels in pregnant sheep during the last trimester: a preliminary report [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Psychosocial stress during pregnancy is a known contributor to preterm birth, but also has been increasingly appreciated as an in utero insult acting long-term on prenatal and postnatal neurodevelopmental trajectories. These events impact many information molecules, including both vitamin D and cortisol.

Autologous Peripheral Vγ9Vδ2 T Cell Synergizes with αβ T Cell Through Antigen Presentation and BTN3A1 Blockade in Immunotherapy of Cervical Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study provides proof‐of‐concept evidence showing that through direct killing, antigen presentation, and competitively binding to BTN3A1, Vγ9Vδ2 T cells amplified from cervical cancer (CC) patients can synergize with αβ T cells to exert anti‐CC function both in vitro and in vivo.

Structure and dynamics of dynorphin peptide and its receptor [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Dynorphin is a neuropeptide involved in pain, addiction and mood regulation. It exerts its activity by binding to the kappa opioid receptor (KOP) which belongs to the large family of G-protein coupled receptors. The dynorphin peptide was discovered in 1975, while its receptor was cloned in 1993.

α‐Synuclein Pathology Spreads in a Midbrain–Hindbrain Assembloid Model

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel midbrain–hindbrain assembloid model demonstrates the spread of α‐synuclein pathology, a hallmark of Parkinson's disease, mimicking Braak's hypothesis. This model reveals how pathology propagates from the hindbrain to the midbrain, inducing synaptic changes and early signs of neuronal vulnerability. It offers an innovative platform for exploring

Prescription analgesic overuse in older adults: Can we mitigate this growing problem?

AGING MEDICINE, Volume 5, Issue 4, Page 294-296, December 2022., 2022
With older adults already on numerous prescription medications to manage their chronic conditions, the addition of pain medications could impose an even greater burden due to dependency issues. We need to understand the use of chronic pain medication, especially opioids, discuss current strategies and gaps, and offer potential solutions to mitigate ...
