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, EarlyView.
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.

Double‐Limbed Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction Using Knotless Femoral Fixation Technique

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract This technical note describes using knotless femoral fixation for medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction for skeletally immature patients. Using a knotless anchor for epiphyseal femoral fixation in the skeletally immature decreases the risk of irritable interference screw fixation and optimizes graft contact with host bone.

The E3 Ubiquitin Ligase UBE3B Regulates Synaptic Development and Cortical Network Activity

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by impaired communication, abnormal social interactions, and restricted, repetitive behaviors. Pathogenic mutations in UBE3B result in neurodevelopmental disease, including intellectual disability, lack of speech, and ASD.

Autism and Cortical Thickness Deviation From Neurotypical Controls: Evidence for a Spatial Association With Serotonin Receptors

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cortical thickness (CT) differences between autistic individuals (AI) and neurotypical controls have been consistently reported, yet the neurochemical mechanisms underlying these differences remain insufficiently understood. Neurotransmitter receptor systems exhibit distinct spatial distributions across the cortex and influence synaptic ...

Plasma sodium levels are related to resting motor threshold in healthy humans

Scientific Reports
Electrolyte homeostasis is essential for normal neuronal function and clinically relevant imbalances can provoke neurological symptoms, including seizures.

Serotonin 5‐HT7 receptor signaling in neuropsychiatric disorders

Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
5‐HT7R recruits Gs, G12, and β‐arrestin signaling to regulate neuronal plasticity, circuit function, and kinase‐linked intracellular responses. This review summarizes how these pathway‐selective modules contribute to autism spectrum disorder, depression, and schizophrenia, highlighting 5‐HT7R as a pathway‐informed therapeutic target. Abstract Serotonin

Fiber‐type soft bioelectronics for wearable and implantable sensing and therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Fiber‐type soft bioelectronics are emerging as versatile platforms for wearable and implantable health monitoring and therapeutic applications. These bioelectronics use organic and inorganic matrices combined with advanced fillers, which feature high conductivity, electrochemical sensitivity, softness, and biocompatibility.

Force stimulation promotes nerve regeneration by restoring cellular energy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Mechanical stimulation can help nerves regenerate in various ways. We developed two devices (a piezo‐motor‐driven stretching device and a SAW‐based actuator) to apply mechanical stimulation to sciatic nerve and DRG neurons. Our study shows that appropriate mechanical force stimulation can promote regeneration by restoring the energy supply to the ...

Sentience in cephalopod molluscs: an updated assessment

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article evaluates the evidence for sentience – the capacity to have feelings – in cephalopod molluscs: octopus, cuttlefish, squid, and nautilus. Our framework includes eight criteria, covering both whether the animal's nervous system could support sentience and whether their behaviour indicates sentience.

A guide to neuromodulation in drug‐resistant epilepsy

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuromodulation is approved for the treatment of drug‐resistant epilepsy. It has been increasingly utilized over the past two decades with the approval of deep brain stimulation (DBS) and responsive neurostimulation (RNS) in addition to vagus nerve stimulation (VNS)—particularly in patients who are not deemed to be good resective surgical ...
