Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

Music and the brain: disorders of musical listening [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The study of the brain bases for normal musical listening has advanced greatly in the last 30 years. The evidence from basic and clinical neuroscience suggests that listening to music involves many cognitive components with distinct brain substrates ...

Early detection of brain metastases and appropriate local therapy followed by systemic chemotherapy may improve the prognosis of gastric cancer

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Brain metastases develop in 0.5–0.7% of patients with gastric/gastroesophageal junction (G/GEJ) cancer. Although rare, brain metastasis is often identified when the patient is already symptomatic; hence prognosis is poor.

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

White matter damage and cognitive impairment after traumatic brain injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
White matter disruption is an important determinant of cognitive impairment after brain injury, but conventional neuroimaging underestimates its extent.

SCLC brain metastasis

open access: yes, 2021
Brain metastasis is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in cancer patients. Here we investigated mechanisms allowing small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) cells to grow in the brain.

Genomic and immune profiling of breast cancer brain metastases

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications
Background Brain metastases (BrM) arising from breast cancer (BC) are an increasing consequence of advanced disease, with up to half of patients with metastatic HER2 + or triple negative BC experiencing central nervous system (CNS) recurrence.

The role of crosstalk between cerebral immune cells and peripheral immune cells in the damage and protection of blood–brain barrier after intracerebral hemorrhage

open access: yesBrain Hemorrhages
Blood-brain barrier (BBB) damage is a major pathological change after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and is both the cause and result of brain edema and the inflammatory response post-ICH. Cerebral immune cells (CICs), including microglia, pericytes, and

Metastasis on pause: How dormant tumor cells stay hidden within the tumor microenvironment and evade immune surveillance

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...

Basement membrane-rich Organoids with functional human blood vessels are permissive niches for human breast cancer metastasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Metastasic breast cancer is the leading cause of death by malignancy in women worldwide. Tumor metastasis is a multistep process encompassing local invasion of cancer cells at primary tumor site, intravasation into the blood vessel, survival in systemic ...
