The CRISPR-Cas9 knockout DDC SH-SY5Y in vitro model for AADC deficiency provides insight into the pathogenicity of R347Q and L353P variants: a cross-sectional structural and functional analysis. [PDF]
Here, we generated a DDC‐KO cellular model for studying aromatic amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) deficiency. This model was created using CRISPR‐Cas9 in the SH‐SY5Y neuroblastoma cell line and was validated through the absence of the dopamine product and an altered l‐dopa metabolite profile.

Neurotransmitters and Immunity: Molecular Mechanisms, Biological Functions, Diseases, and Potential Therapeutic Targets. [PDF]
Role of neurotransmitters in multiple pathological processes. Various neurotransmitters, including ACh, EPI, NE, 5‐HT, histamine, DA, glutamate, GABA, and neuropeptides participate in regulating key pathological events, including tumor proliferation, tumor migration, remodeling of the immune microenvironment, and the development of NDDs and ...

Lauric acid with or without levodopa ameliorates Parkinsonism in genetically modified model of Drosophila melanogaster via the oxidative-inflammatory-apoptotic pathway. [PDF]
Lauric acid exhibits therapeutic potential in alpha‐synuclein‐mediated Parkinsonism by mitigating behavioral impairment, reducing oxidative stress, and curbing neuroinflammation. It also appears to counteract apoptosis and enhance neuronal longevity. These effects collectively suggest lauric acid could be a promising adjunctive treatment for Parkinson ...

Liquid Crystalline Hydroxyapatite Nanorods Orchestrate Hierarchical Bone-Like Mineralization. [PDF]
Unidirectional liquid crystalline hydroxyapatite nanorods guide the growth and osteogenesis of stem cells and the formation of ordered extracellular matrix and calcium deposits at multi‐scales. The PI3k‐Akt signaling pathway mediated by two key genes COL1A1 and COL4A6 is activated in this process.

Olfactory dysfunction is one of the most prevalent symptoms of Parkinson's disease preceding clinical onset by up to a decade. However, PD models focus mainly on motor symptoms and nigrostriatal degeneration. Here, we characterize cultured olfactory bulb organotypic slices and cells and explore the effect of DOPAL, a metabolite of dopamine.

Circulating microRNA‐590‐5p functions as a liquid biopsy marker in non‐small cell lung cancer
Despite the availability of various diagnostic procedures, a tissue biopsy is still indispensable for the routine diagnosis of lung cancer. However, inaccurate diagnoses can occur, leading to inefficient cancer management.
