Adenosine A2A Receptor: A New Neuroprotective Target in Light-Induced Retinal Degeneration
Continuous illumination induces the degeneration of photoreceptors. This animal model of light-induced retinal degeneration resembles many characteristics of human degenerative diseases of the outer retina, such as age-related macular degeneration.

Repurposing of Trimetazidine for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: A study in SOD1G93A mice
Background and Purpose Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a neurodegenerative disease characterized by the degeneration of upper and lower motor neurons, progressive wasting and paralysis of voluntary muscles and is currently incurable. Although considered to be a pure motor neuron disease, increasing evidence indicates that the sole protection of ...

Accruing evidence supports the hypothesis that memory deficits in early Alzheimer Disease (AD) might be due to synaptic failure caused by accumulation of intracellular amyloid beta (Aβ) oligomers, then secreted to the extracellular media.

MiR‐142‐3p regulates synaptopathy‐driven disease progression in multiple sclerosis
By combining clinical and preclinical studies, De Vito et al. propose miR‐142‐3p to be a potential synaptotoxic and negative prognostic marker in multiple sclerosis. Keeping miR‐142‐3p at a low‐level through a personalised therapy may be a promising strategy to improve the disease course in multiple sclerosis.

Background. Thioesterase superfamily member 6 (THEM6) has been implicated in the development and progression of various cancers. However, prior research emphasized on its regulatory role merely, we aim to investigate the effect of THEM6 gene on the immunological role and its relationship with molecular subtype in bladder cancer (BLCA). Methods. Through

Cloning of avirulence gene AvrLm14 in Leptosphaeria maculans allowed us to identify the first resistance gene to the fungus in Brassica oleracea; therefore B. oleracea diversity may be exploited to find novel resistance to the disease. Abstract In many cultivated crops, sources of resistance to diseases are sparse and rely on introgression from wild ...
