Hyperpolarization Modulation of the T‐Type hCav3.2 Channel by Human Synenkephalin [1–53], a Shrew Neurotoxin Analogue without Paralytic Effects

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Human synenkephalin [1–53] (hSYN), an analogue peptide of shrew saliva neurotoxins, was synthesized and its structural characteristics studied. Synthetic hSYN potently activated the T‐type voltage‐gated Ca channel hCav3.2 but did not paralyze mealworms. These findings offer new insight into neurological disorder treatment and evolutionary mechanisms of

Green‐to‐red spectral labeling: A novel polysynaptic retrograde tracing strategy in the marker footprint mouse model

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
To compensate for the fluorescence loss in rabies virus–derived neuronal tracing tools caused by non‐cytolytic immune clearance (NCLIC) in retrograde tracing, we developed a novel green‐to‐red spectral labeling (GTR) strategy based on the NCLIC phenomenon and developed a novel marker footprints mouse to support the strategy.

New approach methods to assess developmental and adult neurotoxicity for regulatory use: a PARC work package 5 project

open access: yesFrontiers in Toxicology
In the European regulatory context, rodent in vivo studies are the predominant source of neurotoxicity information. Although they form a cornerstone of neurotoxicological assessments, they are costly and the topic of ethical debate.

Vitamin B12 Levels Association with Functional and Structural Biomarkers of Central Nervous System Injury in Older Adults

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
At low levels of B12, specifically when bound to transcobalamin for cellular uptake, evidence of slower conductivity in the brain could point toward impaired myelin. At high levels of B12, specifically when bound to the biologically inert transport protein haptocorrin, biomarkers of neurodegeneration appear in the serum, indicating neuroaxonal injury ...

A companion to the preclinical common data elements and case report forms for neuropathology studies in epilepsy research. A report of the TASK3 WG2 Neuropathology Working Group of the ILAE/AES Joint Translational Task Force

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract The International League Against Epilepsy/American Epilepsy Society (ILAE/AES) Joint Translational Task Force initiated the TASK3 working group to create common data elements (CDEs) for various aspects of preclinical epilepsy research studies, which could help improve the standardization of experimental designs.

Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate induces peripheral neuropathy and alters inflammation and mitochondrial biogenesis in the brains of mice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Mounting evidence suggests that antiretroviral therapy (ART) drugs may contribute to the prevalence of HIV-associated neurological dysfunction. The HIV envelope glycoprotein (gp120) is neurotoxic and has been linked to alterations in mitochondrial ...

Elevated α‐Synuclein Aggregate Levels in the Urine of Patients with Isolated REM Sleep Behavior Disorder and Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by α‐synuclein aggregation in neurons. Recent advances suggest α‐synuclein aggregates could serve as a biomarker for PD and related synucleinopathies. This study used surface‐based fluorescence intensity distribution analysis (sFIDA) to measure α‐synuclein aggregates in urine ...

Destabilization of Alzheimers Amyloid-beta Protofibrils by Bai-calein: Mechanistic Insights from All-atom Molecular Dynamics Simulations [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder; it is the most common form of de-mentia and the fifth leading cause of death globally. Aggregation and deposition of neurotoxic A-beta fibrils in the neural tissues of the brain is a key hallmark in the pathogenesis of AD.
