Erlotinib in patients with previously irradiated, recurrent brain metastases from non-small cell lung cancer: Two case reports [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background: With the current improvements in primary lung care, the long-term control of brain metastases becomes a clinical challenge. No established therapeutic approaches exist for cranial relapse after response to previous radiotherapy and systemic ...

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.

Effectiveness and safety of stellate ganglion block with trioxygen autologous blood retransfusion therapy for facial postherpetic neuralgia in elderly patients

open access: yesScientific Reports
This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of stellate ganglion block (SGB) combined with trioxygen autologous blood retransfusion therapy (TABRT) in treating postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) of the head and face in elderly patients.

Functional genomics of brain development and developmentally related brain disease in "Drosophila" [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
One of the fundamental challenges in basic neuroscience is to understand the molecular genetic networks associated with building the brain. As malfunction in these genetic pathways can lead to disorders like cancer, brain development is also a crucial ...

A Brief Explanation on Surgical Approaches for Treatment of Different Brain Tumors

open access: yes, 2023
: The main goal of brain tumor surgery is to achieve gross total tumor resection without postoperative complications and permanent new deficits. However, when the lesion is located close or within eloquent brain areas, cranial nerves, and/or major brain ...

Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.

Mitochondrial DNA from hamster tumors induced by adenovirus type 12 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1970
1. Mitochondria isolated from hamster tumors induced by adenovirus type 12 possessed circular DNA fibers. 2. The mean value of the length of the highest frequency group of the circular DNA molecules was 4.92 ±0.38 μ. 3. Catenated dimer DNA molecules

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

Functional analysis of telomere maintenance mechanisms is more informative than immunohistochemistry for ATRX mutation interpretation in Gliomas

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications
Loss of ATRX function, a diagnostic criterion of IDH-mutant astrocytoma, is closely associated with alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT), a telomere maintenance mechanism (TMM).

Segmentation of Brain Tumors in MRI Images Using Three-Dimensional Active Contour without Edge [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Brain tumor segmentation in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is considered a complex procedure because of the variability of tumor shapes and the complexity of determining the tumor location, size, and texture.
