Nanoplastics Impair GnRH Neuron Migration and Neuroendocrine Function: Emerging Players in the Pathogenesis of Reproductive Disorders

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Little is known about the effects of polystyrene nanoplastics (PS‐NPs) on gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons, which control puberty onset and fertility. By applying tailored in vitro GnRH neuron models, this article shows how PS‐NPs are internalized and impact hormone secretion and cell migration, through gene expression changes. Ultimately,

Renovating Neural Networks With Viral‐Mediated Gene Transfer From A Tissue Contacting Matrix Mimic

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Fmoc‐DDIKVAV self‐assembling peptidemediated delivery of AAV‐BDNF significantly enhances neuroprotection in the striatum of a mouse model compared with AAV‐BDNF injection alone. This synergistic integration of biomaterial scaffolding and gene therapy holds substantial promise for slowing the progression of neurodegenerative diseases such as Huntington ...

Does size really matter:relationship of particle size to lung deposition and exhaled fraction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We demonstrate that extra-fine particles are not associated with an appreciably higher exhaled fraction, hence explaining their efficacy profile in asthma.
