Design and Rationale of the Cognitive Intervention to Improve Memory in Heart Failure Patients Study [PDF]

, 2018
BACKGROUND: Memory loss is an independent predictor of mortality among heart failure patients. Twenty-three percent to 50% of heart failure patients have comorbid memory loss, but few interventions are available to treat the memory loss.

Muscle Organoids Reveal Exercise‐Like Contractions Rapidly Promote Muscle Health Via Lamtor1's Signaling to Both AMPK and mTOR

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops a novel 3D human skeletal muscle organoid platform to study the immediate molecular effects of exercise‐like contractions. The model uncovers rapid proteomic and transcriptomic responses, resolving a fundamental paradox by demonstrating how exercise‐induced Lamtor1 coordinately activates both AMPK and mTORC1. Lamtor1 is a compelling

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) Prevents the Downregulation of the Cholinergic Phenotype in Axotomized Motoneurons of the Adult Rat [PDF]

, 2018
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was initially characterized by its activity on the vascular system. However, there is growing evidence indicating that VEGF also acts as a neuroprotective factor, and that its administration to neurons suffering ...

Mechanical Environment Afforded by Engineered Hydrogel Critically Regulates Survival of Neural Stem Cells Transplanted in the Injured Spinal Cord via Piezo1‐Mediated Mechanotransduction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Neural stem cell transplantation shows promise for spinal cord repair, but poor graft survival limits therapeutic efficacy. This study demonstrates that increasing hydrogel stiffness from 10% to 16% concentration significantly enhances transplanted neural stem cell survival through Piezo1‐mediated mechanotransduction, revealing mechanical properties as

Phospholipid Remodeling and Tri‐Layer Membrane Reconstruction Mediate Cognitive Effects of Humanized Milk Fat Globules in Neonatal Rats

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Humanized milk fat globules (MFG) mimic the native composition and structure of human milk, achieved through remodeling of milk fat globule membrane phospholipid composition and reconstruction of the tri‐layer membrane structure. These humanized MFG exhibit improved structural stability and digestibility, and enhance neurodevelopment in formula‐fed rat

The effects of exercise interventions on brain-derived neurotrophic factor levels in children and adolescents: a meta-analysis

Neural Regeneration Research
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor is a crucial neurotrophic factor that plays a significant role in brain health. Although the vast majority of meta-analyses have confirmed that exercise interventions can increase brain-derived neurotrophic factor levels

Neurotrophic factors and corneal nerve regeneration [PDF]

, 2017
The cornea has unique features that make it a useful model for regenerative medicine studies. It is an avascular, transparent, densely innervated tissue and any pathological changes can be easily detected by slit lamp examination.
