Hepatic progenitor cells from adult human livers for cell transplantation. [PDF]

, 2008
Objective: Liver regeneration is mainly based on cellular self-renewal including progenitor cells. Efforts have been made to harness this potential for cell transplantation, but shortage of hepatocytes and premature differentiated progenitor cells ...

Harnessing migraines for neural regeneration

Neural Regeneration Research, 2018
The success of naturalistic or therapeutic neuroregeneration likely depends on an internal milieu that facilitates the survival, proliferation, migration, and differentiation of stem cells and their assimilation into neural networks. Migraine attacks are an integrated sequence of physiological processes that may protect the brain from oxidative stress ...

Nanomaterial-Based Approaches for Neural Regeneration [PDF]

Pharmaceutics, 2019
Mechanical, thermal, chemical, or ischemic injury of the central or peripheral nervous system results in neuron loss, neurite damage, and/or neuronal dysfunction, almost always accompanied by sensorimotor impairment which alters the patient’s life quality. The regenerative strategies for the injured nervous system are currently limited and mainly allow

ALS With and Without Upper Motor Neuron Signs: A Comparative Study Supporting the Gold Coast Criteria

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The Gold Coast criteria permit diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) even without upper motor neuron (UMN) signs. However, whether ALS patients with UMN signs (ALSwUMN) and those without (ALSwoUMN) share similar characteristics and prognoses remains unclear.

Metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 inhibits α-synuclein-induced microglia inflammation to protect from neurotoxicity in Parkinson’s disease

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2021
Background Microglia activation induced by α-synuclein (α-syn) is one of the most important factors in Parkinson’s disease (PD) pathogenesis. However, the molecular mechanisms by which α-syn exerts neuroinflammation and neurotoxicity remain largely ...

Goal-Directed Planning for Habituated Agents by Active Inference Using a Variational Recurrent Neural Network [PDF]

, 2020
It is crucial to ask how agents can achieve goals by generating action plans using only partial models of the world acquired through habituated sensory-motor experiences.

Biotargets in neural regeneration

Biotarget, 2017
The peripheral nervous system (PNS) exhibits a much larger capacity for regeneration than the central nervous system (CNS). The main reason is that the neurons in PNS still have certain intrinsic capacity for regeneration and the Schwann cells in PNS provide a suitable regeneration microenvironment.

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

Immune Evasion Mechanism Mediated by ITPRIPL1 and Its Prognostic Implications in Glioma

Brain and Behavior
Background: Glioma represent one of the most prevalent and lethal malignancies within the central nervous system. Recent studies have identified ITPRIPL1, a newly reported CD3ε‐inhibitory ligand, as a suppressor of T cell activation, thereby facilitating
