Mapping the Cerebral Organoid Landscape: A Systematic Review of Preclinical 3D Models in Neuroscience

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Cerebral organoids are transforming brain research, yet the field remains fragmented. This comprehensive systematic review maps 738 studies published between 2014 and 2024 to uncover trends, gaps, and opportunities across neuroscience. Introducing OrganoidMap—an interactive, open‐access platform to explore and compare models—this work enables ...

From Rigid to Soft Robotic Approaches for Neuroendoscopy

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robotic assistance has had minimal impact on deep intraventricular surgeries, where small‐scale, precision, and reduced invasiveness can contribute to improved patient outcomes. Emerging technologies in rigid, soft, and hybrid robotics are reviewed to identify the most promising mechanisms for deep brain navigation in addition to an attempt to identify

An extremely rare case of choroid plexus carcinoma in the third ventricle of an infant – Case report and review of the literature

Interdisciplinary Neurosurgery, 2020
Background: Choroid plexus tumors are rare intraventricular tumors. Most of these tumors are benign choroid plexus papillomas. Choroid plexus carcinoma is the most malignant choroid plexus tumor and constitutes a small percentage of these tumors.

Targeting choroid plexus epithelium as a novel therapeutic strategy for hydrocephalus

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2022
The choroid plexus is a tissue located in the lateral ventricles of the brain and is composed mainly of choroid plexus epithelium cells. The main function is currently thought to be the secretion of cerebrospinal fluid and the regulation of its pH, and ...

Autophagy Activators Normalize Aberrant Tau Proteostasis and Rescue Synapses in Human Familial Alzheimer's Disease iPSC‐Derived Cortical Organoids

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A new cerebrocortical organoid model using isogenic hiPSCs with familial Alzheimer's mutations recapitulates key AD features, including amyloid‐beta and phospho‐Tau aggregation, neuronal hyperexcitability, and synapse loss. Single‐cell RNA‐seq reveals aberrant pathways in excitatory and inhibitory neurons.

DNA Nanoflower LYTACs Enable Efficient VEGF Degradation and Verteporfin Loading for Combined Therapy of Wet Age‐Related Macular Degeneration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An integrated approach that combines a DNA nanoflower VEGF degrader with photodynamic therapy is developed for the treatment of wet age‐related macular degeneration, which reduces the risk of VEGF reactivation‐induced CNV recurrence and minimizes the systemic side effects associated with photodynamic therapy.

Oral Celastrol Nanomedicine Targeting Intestinal Antigen‐Presenting Cells to Effectively Mitigate Autoimmune Uveitis via Gut‐Retina Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Oral nanoCEL exhibits effective intestinal targeting of antigen‐presenting cells and restores the Th17/Treg balance in lymph nodes and spleen, ultimately protecting the blood‐retinal barrier by inhibiting peripheral immune cell infiltration and suppressing retinal glial cell activation.
