Gene therapy for epilepsy: An emerging, promising approach for a serious neurological disorder
Abstract Gene therapy is emerging as a groundbreaking strategy for treating epilepsy, offering new hope to patients who do not respond to conventional medications. Despite advancements in anti‐seizure treatments, nearly 30%–40% of individuals with epilepsy continue to experience uncontrolled seizures, highlighting the urgent need for more effective and

The power of ionic movements in plants
Summary The movement of ion‐driven electrogenic events known as plant action potentials in the Venus flytrap Dionaea muscipula has first been recognized in Darwin's time. Besides electrophysiological techniques making use of current‐ and voltage‐recording electrodes, today an ever‐growing spectrum of tools has become available, that report online ...

How copy number variations shape brain developmental disorders: Unraveling the synaptic puzzle
Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), such as schizophrenia (SCZ), Attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), learning disabilities, and intellectual disabilities (ID), are highly prevalent. One significant genetic factor associated with NDDs is copy number variations (CNVs), which are structural changes in the ...

Optimization of photobiomodulation therapy for spinal cord injury: A review
Photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy in the red and near‐infrared range can significantly modulate the secondary injury response and promote the reparative and regenerative potential of neural tissue after spinal cord injury (SCI). At present, due to the nature of delivery methods, the most effective dose and irradiance at the injury site to optimize ...

Isolation and social instigation in animal models of aggression: effects of an mGLU1 receptor antagonist administration [PDF]
Isolate-induced aggression in male mice is a model widely used in psychoparmacology of aggression. Animals are usually isolated for 30 days and subsequently treated and confronted with an anosmic opponent in a neutral area.

Potential health benefits of cold‐water immersion: the central role of PGC‐1α
Abstract figure legend Cold‐water immersion (CWI) elicits autonomic, somato‐motoric (shivering thermogenesis), endocrine and metabolic, sensory transduction, and local biophysical effects that may converge on the transcriptional co‐activator PGC‐1α (centre).

Spatio‐Temporal Diversity of Calcium Activity in Microglia
Ca2+ activity mostly occurs in microglial processes and stays localized. When it spreads, it often shows a directional bias and is constrained by branch points. Activity strongly relies on P2Y12 receptors and is shaped by neuronal activity. ABSTRACT Microglia, the brain's innate immune cells, possess complex, highly motile branched processes. These act

Neurons, immune cells, and other cellular components within the disease microenvironment (such as stromal cells and tumor cells) constitute a dynamically evolving ecosystem. Neurons directly modulate immune cell activity and inflammatory responses through the release of neurotransmitters (e.g., norepinephrine and CGRP), while also promoting tumor ...
