The functional synergism of microRNA clustering provides therapeutically relevant epigenetic interference in glioblastoma

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
The delivery of single therapeutic microRNAs in brain cancers is challenging. Here, the authors engineer three neuronal microRNAs (miR-124, 128 and 137) into a cluster that, targeting oncogenic chromatin repressors, increases survival of GBM-bearing mice

From Rigid to Soft Robotic Approaches for Neuroendoscopy

open access: yesAdvanced 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

Pharmacological Inhibition of FKBP51 Mitigates Early Life Adversity‐Induced Social Deficits in Male Mice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Early life adversity triggers persistent social subordination and brain‐wide molecular dysregulation. Pharmacological inhibition of the stress‐mediator FKBP51 during the adversity period prevents these long‐term deficits and restores normative social hierarchy.

Cushing syndrome

open access: yesNature Reviews Disease Primers
Cushing syndrome (CS) is a constellation of signs and symptoms caused by excessive exposure to exogenous or endogenous glucocorticoid hormones. Endogenous CS is caused by increased cortisol production by one or both adrenal glands (adrenal CS) or by elevated adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) secretion from a pituitary tumour (Cushing disease (CD)) or ...

TRH-induced secretion of adrenocorticotropin and cortisol in dogs with pituitary-dependent hypercortisolism

open access: yesVeterinary Quarterly, 2018
Background: In dogs, spontaneous Cushing’s syndrome is most often pituitary-dependent and caused by hypersecretion of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), resulting in increased adrenocortical glucocorticoid secretion similar to horses.
