Organoids in pediatric cancer research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Investigating novel aspects of the blood-brain barrier using high resolution electron microscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Philosophiae Doctor - PhDThe blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a restrictive interface located between the blood circulation and the central nervous system (CNS), regulating the homeostatic environment of the neuronal milieu, by controlling the permeability

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

The blood brain barrier and Lina Solomonovna Stern (Shtern)

open access: yesAdvances in Clinical Neuroscience & Rehabilitation, 2022
The blood–brain barrier (BBB) regulates the transport of molecules between the central nervous system (CNS) and blood. It consists of two components: the vascular endothelial cells forming so–called tight junctions, and the blood–cerebrospinal fluid ...

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Secretome of brain microvascular endothelial cells promotes endothelial barrier tightness and protects against hypoxia-induced vascular leakage

open access: yesMolecular Medicine
Cell-based therapeutic strategies have been proposed as an alternative for brain and blood vessels repair after stroke, but their clinical application is hampered by potential adverse effects.

Organoid-engineered neurovascular units for drug discovery and neurodegeneration research [PDF]

open access: yesBioImpacts
The highly selective permeability of the human blood-brain barrier presents a major obstacle to neurological disease modeling. Established 2D cell cultures and animal models are unable to accurately reproduce the physiological and molecular features of ...

In vivo approaches to assessing the blood-brain barrier

open access: yes, 2014
Methods for in vivo assessment of blood-brain barrier (BBB) transport are presented, with their advantages and disadvantages. The methods described are brain uptake index, the i.v.

Differentiation of the brain vasculature : the answer came blowing by the Wnt [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Vascularization of the vertebrate brain takes place during embryonic development from a preformed perineural vascular plexus. As a consequence of the intimate contact with neuroectodermal cells the vessels, which are entering the brain exclusively via ...

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.
