Zwitterionic Fluoropolymer‐Engineered Synaptic Clefts Enhance Ion Dynamics in Neuromorphic OECTs

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Polyzwitterionic DPVDF (DPVDF‐SZ) ion gels enhance neuromorphic OECT performance due to their reduced crystallinity compared to conventional fluoropolymer (e.g., PVDF‐HFP). These ion gels enable high transconductance, stable ion diffusion, and synaptic plasticity, including long‐term memory. Reservoir computing validation highlights their potential for

Metformin Restores Mitochondrial Function and Neurogenesis in POLG Patient‐Derived Brain Organoids

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Patient‐derived POLG‐mutant cortical organoids reveal neuronal subtype‐specific mitochondrial and synaptic defects, with dopaminergic neurons most affected. Metformin treatment restores neuronal identity, mitochondrial function, and excitability, increased mtDNA maintenance, and reprogrammed metabolism via TCA and redox pathways.

AST-120 Protects Cognitive and Emotional Impairment in Chronic Kidney Disease Induced by 5/6 Nephrectomy

Brain Sciences
Background: Uremic toxins resulting from chronic kidney disease (CKD) can cause cognitive and emotional disorders, as well as cardiovascular diseases. Indoxyl sulfate (IS) and p-cresol are notable uremic toxins found in patients with CKD.

Inhibiting Liver‐Derived C3 Protein Rescues Anesthesia/Surgery‐Induced Cognitive Impairment, Synaptic Disorders, and Microglial Phagocytosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study provides evidence that anesthesia/surgery can induce the BBB breakdown and promote the release of hepatogenous C3 protein into the blood. This surgical dual factors ultimately drove C3 to cross the damaged BBB and selectively colocalize with C3aR in the hippocampus, which results in structural and functional injury of synapse, C3aR‐mediated ...

Inhibition of Cgkii Suppresses Seizure Activity and Hippocampal Excitation by Regulating the Postsynaptic Delivery of Glua1

Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2018
Background/Aims: The imbalance between excitation and inhibition is a defining feature of epilepsy. GluA1 is an AMPA receptor subunit that can strengthen excitatory synaptic transmission when upregulated in the postsynaptic membrane, which has been ...

Allosteric Modulation of Pathological Ataxin‐3 Aggregation: A Path to Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type‐3 Therapies

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers a new allosteric site in the Josephin domain of ataxin‐3 targeted by the molecular tweezer CLR01, which modulates protein aggregation, improves synaptic function in neuronal cells, and delays motor dysfunction in animal models.

Delta Opioid Receptors within the Cortico‐Thalamic Circuitry Underlie Hyperactivity Induced by High‐Dose Morphine

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Morphine activates the excitatory cingulate cortex–intermediate rostrocaudal division of zona incerta (Cg‐ZIm) pathway to drive hyperlocomotion in mice. Inhibiting the Cg‐ZIm pathway attenuates both acute and chronic morphine‐induced hyperlocomotion, while its activation mimics morphine's motor effects.

Robust and Intensity-Dependent Synaptic Inhibition Underlies the Generation of Non-monotonic Neurons in the Mouse Inferior Colliculus

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
Intensity and frequency are the two main properties of sound. The non-monotonic neurons in the auditory system are thought to represent sound intensity. The central nucleus of the inferior colliculus (ICC), as an important information integration nucleus
