The hypervirulent Group B Streptococcus HvgA adhesin promotes central nervous system invasion through transcellular crossing of the choroid plexus

Fluids and Barriers of the CNS
Background Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is the leading cause of neonatal meningitis responsible for a substantial cause of death and disability worldwide. The vast majority of GBS neonatal meningitis cases are due to the CC17 hypervirulent clone. However,

Differentiating the Clinical and Variant Spectrum of Hardikar Syndrome From Other MED12 ‐Related Developmental Disorders

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 7, Page 1619-1650, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The rare X‐linked female‐restricted Hardikar syndrome (HDKR, OMIM # 301068) is characterized by multiple congenital anomalies including orofacial clefts, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, and cardiac anomalies, but cognitive and neurobehavioral development is rarely impaired.

Specific Deletion of Interleukin‐1 Beta in Microglia Improves Acute Outcome and Modulates Neurogenesis After Ischemic Stroke

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 7, July 2026.
Microglial IL‐1β deletion improves acute outcome and reduces neutrophil recruitment after experimental ischemic stroke. Microglial IL‐1β deletion increases neurogenesis in the subventricular zone after experimental ischemic stroke. ABSTRACT Interleukin‐1 (IL‐1) signaling is a major driver of post‐ischemic neuroinflammation, yet the cell‐ and isoform ...

Fecal Proteomics Suggest Potential Biomarkers for Non‐Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and Steatohepatitis

PROTEOMICS – Clinical Applications, Volume 20, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and aims Non‐alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) affects about a quarter of the world's population. Liver biopsy remains the gold standard for diagnosing the progressive form of NAFLD called Non‐alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) but it is invasive, prone to sampling errors and observer variability, and impractical for widespread ...

Unveiling a New Link: Cholesterol Deficiency in Smith–Lemli–Opitz and Niemann–Pick C as a Driver of Ciliopathies

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 6, Page 1179-1191, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The ciliopathies are a group of genetic disorders caused by defective function of either the primary cilia (a large number) or the motile cilia (a much smaller number). These have been defined as diseases with mutations in genes encoding individual ciliary or cilia‐associated proteins.

Hydranencephaly in Neonate With Prenatal Exposure to Alcohol During Pregnancy

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Hydranencephaly (HE) is a rare congenital condition characterized by near‐total absence of the cerebral hemispheres, replaced by cerebrospinal fluid, most commonly resulting from in utero bilateral internal carotid artery occlusion; although maternal alcohol consumption is associated with fetal neurodevelopmental abnormalities, its direct role

A Cross‐Disease Microglial Transcriptional Program Characterizes Neurodegeneration and Highlights SPP1 as a Biomarker

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 6, June 2026.
Distinct microglial subpopulations are depicted, highlighting variations in gene expression and functional roles in response to specific disease conditions and the complexity of microglial activation and differentiation in neurodegeneration. ABSTRACT Microglial cells are key players in maintaining brain homeostasis and responding to pathological ...

Exploring and Targeting the Connection of Iron and Copper Homeostasis to Neurodegenerative Diseases

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
Iron and copper dyshomeostasis, along with their interactions with key intrinsically disordered proteins (e.g., Aβ, tau, α‐synuclein) have a strong implication in the onset and progression of neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), Prion diseases (PrDs), Huntington's disease (HD), Wilson's disease (WD),

Organoids: From Bench to Bedside Applications

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
Organoids, as a groundbreaking biomedical research platform, utilize adult stem cells (ASCs), embryonic stem cells (ESCs), and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) as sources. By integrating specific growth and differentiation signals within an extracellular matrix (e.g., Matrigel), organoids guide cells to self‐assemble into three‐dimensional ...

Cilia in Nervous System Development, Function, and Disease

MedComm – Future Medicine, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Cilia are evolutionarily conserved organelles that function as essential sensory and motility platforms in the nervous system. This review outlines key cilia‐dependent signaling pathways and their roles in neural development and function. Furthermore, it highlights how ciliary dysfunction can lead to a variety of neurological disorders, known as ...
