Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

A Promising Therapeutic Target for Metabolic Diseases: Neuropeptide Y Receptors in Humans
Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2017 Human neuropeptide Y (hNPY) is one of the most widely expressed neurotransmitters in the human central and peripheral nervous systems. It consists of 36 highly conserved amino acid residues, and was first isolated from the porcine hypothalamus in 1982 ...

The Role of Calcitonin Gene‐Related Peptide in High‐Altitude Headache: A Prospective Field Study
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective High‐altitude headache (HAH) is a common neurological condition associated with rapid ascent to high altitude. The pathophysiological mechanisms underlying HAH remain incompletely understood. Calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP), a neuropeptide implicated in migraine pathophysiology, may play a key role in the pathophysiology of ...

Claustrum Involvement in New Onset Refractory Status Epilepticus: A Systematic Review
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The claustrum sign is a distinctive neuroimaging finding characterized by bilateral T2/FLAIR hyperintensity of the claustrum, one of the most interconnected regions of the human brain. It was first described in new‐onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE) and febrile infection–related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES).

New Onset of Fibromyalgia After Exposure to a Combat Environment: A Longitudinal Cohort Study
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Traumatic life events are hypothesized to be triggers for the onset of fibromyalgia. Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a common comorbidity of fibromyalgia. However, limited prospective data are available on the development of fibromyalgia after exposure to high‐magnitude stress.
