Oxytocinergic Signaling in Zebrafish: Translational Perspectives for Autism Spectrum Disorder. [PDF]
Alterations in oxytocin signaling are strongly implicated in the social and cognitive deficits characterizing Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and other neurodevelopmental conditions. However, the precise mechanisms remain unclear. The zebrafish (Danio rerio) has emerged as a powerful translational model due to its evolutionarily conserved oxytocin ...

Uncovering Hyperhomocysteinemia: Global Risk Patterns and Molecular Disruption in Brain and Vascular Health. [PDF]
Elevated homocysteine results from genetic variants, impaired one‐carbon metabolism, nutritional deficiencies, and metabolic disorders. Hyperhomocysteinemia drives oxidative stress, inflammation, excitotoxicity, and epigenetic disruption, affecting multiple organs and systems.

A three‐range approach enhances the prognostic utility of CSF biomarkers in Alzheimer's disease
Abstract Introduction Alzheimer's disease consensus recommends biomarker dichotomization, a practice with well‐described clinical strengths and methodological limitations. Although neuroimaging studies have explored alternative biomarker interpretation strategies, a formally defined three‐range approach and its prognostic impact remains under‐explored ...

HIV/AIDS IMMUNEPATHOLOGY: MECHANISMS, CONTRADICTIONS AND CONTROVERSIES
Resumo: Antes de entrar na célula como uma partícula infecciosa livre, o HIV passa por contato célula a célula. A ligação do HIV ao CD4 causa alterações no gp120 e CD4 oferecendo sítios de ligação com CXR4, CXR5 e outros receptores.

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are molecular chaperones that bind to other proteins to shepherd them across membranes and direct them to specific locations within a cell. Several injurious stimuli can induce Hsp70 expression, including ischemia.

Degeneration of the locus coeruleus (LC), the main source of cerebral noradrenaline (NA), has been reported in diverse neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson’s diseases (PD). There is increasing evidence indicating the role of NA deficiency in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and the development of early cognitive impairments in PD.
