Computational analysis of transcranial magnetic stimulation in the presence of deep brain stimulation probes

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2017
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation is an emerging non-invasive treatment for depression, Parkinson’s disease, and a variety of other neurological disorders. Many Parkinson’s patients receive the treatment known as Deep Brain Stimulation, but often require

Neuronal Activity in the Human Subthalamic Nucleus Encodes Decision Conflict during Action Selection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The subthalamic nucleus (STN), which receives excitatory inputs from the cortex and has direct connections with the inhibitory pathways\ud of the basal ganglia, is well positioned to efficiently mediate action selection.

COMP–PMEPA1 axis promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in breast cancer cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study reveals that cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cancer. We identify PMEPA1 (protein TMEPAI) as a novel COMP‐binding partner that mediates EMT via binding to the TSP domains of COMP, establishing the COMP–PMEPA1 axis as a key EMT driver in breast cancer.

In Parkinson’s disease dopaminergic medication and deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus increase motor, but not reflection and cognitive impulsivity

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
BackgroundParkinson’s disease is associated with increased impulsivity, which can be divided into several domains: motor (consisting of proactive and reactive subdomains), reflection, and cognitive impulsivity.

EDNRB‐dependent endothelin signaling reduces proliferation and promotes proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition in gliomas

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Glioma cells mainly express the endothelin receptor EDNRB, while EDNRA is restricted to a perivascular tumor subpopulation. Endothelin signaling reduces glioma cell proliferation while promoting migration and a proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition associated with poor prognosis. This pathway activates Ca2+, K+, ERK, and STAT3 signalings and is regulated

Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials (VEMPs) in Parkinson’s Disease Patients with Monopolar Deep Brain Stimulation

open access: yesSignals
Whilst balance disturbances are common in people with advanced Parkinson’s disease, it has not previously been possible to record vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs), and thus otolithic function, during monopolar deep brain stimulation (DBS ...

Deep transcranial magnetic stimulation : improved coil design and assessment of the induced fields using MIDA model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Stimulation of deep brain structures by transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a method for activating deep neurons in the brain and can be beneficial for the treatment of psychiatric and neurological disorders.

Metastasis on pause: How dormant tumor cells stay hidden within the tumor microenvironment and evade immune surveillance

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...

Brain tissue properties differentiate between motor and limbic basal ganglia circuits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Despite advances in understanding basic organizational principles of the human basal ganglia, accurate in vivo assessment of their anatomical properties is essential to improve early diagnosis in disorders with corticosubcortical pathology and optimize ...

Promiscuous stimulation of HSP70 ATPase activity by parasite‐derived J‐domains

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum exports three highly homologous yet functionally divergent J‐domain proteins into human erythrocytes. Here, we show that J‐domains isolated from all three proteins effectively stimulate the ATPase activity of both endogenous host and exported parasite HSP70 chaperones.
