Toxicity Differences Between Microplastics and Nanoplastics in Organs: From Molecular Mechanisms to Potential Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
This review systematically compares the size‐dependent toxicity of microplastics and nanoplastics in the intestine, liver, kidney, lung, and brain. Particle size determines bioavailability, barrier penetration, and injury mechanisms. Because of their small size and high surface reactivity, NPs readily cross the intestinal epithelium and blood–brain ...

Integrating brain organoids, meningeal immunity, and glymphatic dynamics: toward modeling neuroimmune clearance and crosstalk in disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
The central nervous system has long been considered an immune-privileged organ, but discoveries about meningeal lymphatics, meningeal immune cells, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-interstitial fluid (ISF) exchange, and aquaporin-4 (AQP4)-associated glymphatic ...

Organoid Coculture Models for Cancer Research and Immunotherapy

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
This review summarizes organoid coculture platforms, including submerged Matrigel culture, air–liquid interface, microfluidic/organoid‐on‐a‐chip, and 3D bioprinting, for reconstructing the tumor microenvironment to study tumor–stroma/immune crosstalk, evaluate immunotherapies, and enable drug screening.

ABC of Brain Stem Death: From Brain Death to Brain Stem Death

open access: yes, 1982
In the second in a series of nine articles on brain death, a British neurologist traces the evolution of British and American criteria for establishing brain death, distinguishes between whole brain death and death of the brain stem, and describes the ...

Cellular Contributions to Glymphatic and Lymphatic Waste Clearance in the Brain

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) bathes and cushions the brain; however, it also serves a major role in the clearance of metabolic wastes and in the distribution of glucose, lipids, and amino acids. Unlike every other organ in the body, the brain parenchyma lacks a traditional lymphatic system to drain fluids and central nervous system (CNS) antigens.

Hypovitaminosis D in acute inpatient cancer rehabilitation: Prevalence, predictors, and practical implications

open access: yesPM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Hypovitaminosis D is associated with adverse health outcomes, including increased mortality in patients with cancer. Although vitamin D insufficiency (23%–72%) and deficiency (20%–71%) are common among patients admitted to inpatient rehabilitation, their prevalence and predictors in cancer‐specific inpatient rehabilitation ...

Human Prostate Cell Lines: Derivation, Molecular Characteristics and Appropriate Use

open access: yesThe Prostate, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Research on prostate cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia depends on a small number of immortalized human cell lines established between 1977 and 2001, most of them from advanced metastatic disease. The cell lines differ from one another in androgen receptor status, prostate‐specific antigen secretion, p53 status, karyotype and ...

Orbital lymphatics: do they exist?

open access: yes
Introduction Although the lymphatic system was first described almost 400 years ago, it is only in very recent years that researchers have been able to identify lymphatic channels with reasonable accuracy.
